Archive.org has a 720p colorized version of this film:

https://archive.org/details/1939_20220824
https://archive.org/download/1939_20220824

The second link above is the download directory. Those two files Подкидыш (1939).mp4 and Подкидыш (1939).ia.mp4 down at the bottom are identical, it doesn't matter which one you choose. Just right click and save. Phuzzy's subs are long expired so I'm not sure if they fit this new version ... any chance of a re-share?

I don't have the old files but I have a subtitle file that SHOULD be synced, because the Archive.org streaming video has the same runtime as what I downloaded. My English subtitles are resynced from opensubtitles.org

English subtitles synced to Rutor file linked below & PROBABLY to deadman's Archive.org file:

Podkidysh.1939.WEB-DLRip.1080p.MediaClub.en.srt

LATER EDIT: I THINK THE 720p VERSIONS LOOK BETTER THAN THE 1080p VERSION!! SEE FOLLOWING POSTS.

Has anyone found a 1080p file of the original Black and White version? I have found B&W DVD but it looks very rough.

I am also interested in an upgraded B&W version of this, if anyone ever comes across it. Until then, thank you everyone for this cute little film. I skimmed through deadman's archive.org link, looks good.

Night, your link for the rutor page doesn't seem to work on my side.

Night, your link for the rutor page doesn't seem to work on my side.

Well, Rutor has "Permanent blocking in Russia" but I won't ask where you are. Anyway, that's why I attached the .torrent file. This is what the page SAYS, translated to English:

Information about the film
Title: Foundling
Year: 1939
Genre: Comedy , children's , family
Director: Tatyana Lukashevich
Starring: Faina Ranevskaya, Pyotr Repnin, Veronika Lebedeva, Rostislav Plyatt, Rina Zelenaya, Olga Zhizneva, Tatyana Barysheva, Dmitry Glukhov, Fyodor Odinokov, Nikolai Yudin

About the film:
Tatyana Lukashevich's comedy 'Foundling' is one of the very first family films in the Soviet Union, the scriptwriters of which were the famous theater and film actress Rina Zelenaya and writer Agniya Barto. This film starred the legends of Soviet cinema Faina Ranevskaya, Pyotr Repnin, Rostislav Plyatt and Rina Zelenaya herself. And the phrase "Mulya! Don't make me nervous!" invented by the brilliant actress Faina Ranevskaya became a catchphrase. Little Natasha left home and got lost in a big city. Everyone she met on her exciting, adventure-filled journey took part in her fate. Of course, everything ended well. And while Natasha was wandering around the city, she made many friends among both adults and children. Country: USSR Studio: Mosfilm Duration: 01:12:41 Translation: Not required File Codec: h.264 Quality: WEB-DLRip 1080p Video: MPEG-4 AVC, 5120 kbps, 1920x1080, 25,000 fps Sound: Russian (AC3, 2 ch, 256 kbps) Subtitles: No Sample

The worst I can say about the colorized version is that it is blurry in motion, as if the color has a hard time running after the film underneath it... although I SHOULD look at the 720p version because maybe the 1080p blurry version is a bad upscale from it. Hmmm, that's a thought. Thanks for the link, deadman!

Is Rutor different from Rutacker? Perhaps this is one I will need a VPN for. No problem, I was able to download your included torrent file. I cannot too much difference between the archive.org file and the 1080p file in terms of motion, but the 1080p file does look slightly sharper.

The movie is also available on tubitv in 540p. It looks like it has different subs! They appear slightly more polished than the subs from opensubs, but I only compared a small portion. Subs are about a half-second delayed.

Rutor and Rutracker are different Russian-language torrent sites, and apparently BOTH are banned in Russia! (Remember: VPNs are sometimes more important for some people than for others.) Rutracker is only directly searchable on the site with a login, but movies on the site can be found on it using Google "moviename site:rutracker.org". Of course logging in gives more complete results than Google does. Rutor is directly searchable on the site without a login, but Russian movies at least should by searched in Cyrillic ("Подкидыш" instead of "Podkidysh"). Rutor.is may work for you if Rutor.info does not, I don't know. There are multiple versions of this movie there including 720p. There are also versions of the 2019 remake.

I downloaded the 720p file but have not watched it yet on the big screen to check out the motion. Ever the optimist, I still hope it might be better than the 1080p. I will DL the Tubi too.

EDIT: the Tubi actually downloads as 720p in yt-dlp! So now I have THREE 720p versions to check, oh my!

Thank you Snake for the bump, deadman & pillowbaker for the links!
Now that I have seen the original at least twice (plus the time with the video while correcting the subtitles) I think that I can safely watch the remake without subtitles and still understand that version.

I do not like the 1080p torrent version I linked! Sorry about that. I much prefer the 720p files because the colorization seems less blurry.

I have a slight preference for the 720p Tubi version linked here:
https://www.first-loves.com/forums/view ... 32#p116532
over the 720p Archive.org version linked here:
https://www.first-loves.com/forums/view ... 85#p116485

There is plenty of funny dialog in this, and I am sure I would find even more of it funny if I understood the original Russian. Still, my favorite line of dialog is more sentimental than funny and comes at the very end when the sleepy little girl is murmuring to her mother, who is singing her a lullaby.

Spoiler: Watch the movie. Why are you peeking here?

The opensubtitles English file is very good but sometimes a little too literal in its translation. The Tubi subtitles are a more natural translation most of the time but their timing was off. I combed through that version correcting the timing and improving parts of the translation with reference to the older opensubtitles version.

English Tubi subtitles, corrected and timed for 720p Archive.org video:

Podkidysh _ Подкидыш (1939).720p.Archive.org.en.srt

English Tubi subtitles, corrected and timed for 720p Tubi video:

The Foundling (1939).720p.RUSSIAN.WebTubi.en.srt
