Admiral Nakhimov is a major USSR film made in 1946 by the director Vsevolod Pudovkin . The book was by Igor Lukowski .
Pudovkin shot the film as a character study about the admiral and defender of Sevastopol , Pavel Nakhimov († 1855), who was revered in Russia , but had to change the film significantly under Stalin's censorship . The USSR authorities demanded a film with a superficial representation of Nakhimov as a war hero. Despite the heavy censorship, the film is considered an important post-war Soviet work. Performances also took place abroad.
