> Yes, many Mosfilm classics seems to be on YouTube

This seems to vary a lot. I just checked and there were several Moscfilm films available (including Stalker) but I'm pretty sure I checked this about 6 months ago and there weren't many available - some were available for rent, but not free view.



That's because they have 2 accounts a russian and a global english one.

Russian https://www.youtube.com/c/MosfilmRuOfficial

Global https://www.youtube.com/c/Mosfilm_eng

Usually both channels have subtitles but generally the global one is burnt-in while the russian one is selectable from the Youtube interface. Also the russian channel has much much more uploads.

And movies differ too to some extent. For example, Solaris is a single title in the global english channel (restored vesion) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8ZhQPaw4rE

Whereas it's 2 part title as it was originally back then (2 reels)

Last but not least check geoblocking https://polsy.org.uk/stuff/ytrestrict.cgi For example Solaris is geoblocked in the US, both versions
