Film is called Sniper.  It's supposed to be about a sniper during the Revolution or during WW II.  I couldn't find it on U-Tube.  Help?

Will have a look for it, but given the age it may be a long search.

That's (most likely it).  Thanks.  I've seen it referenced in some book I read.

I'll have to pack swmbo off to bed early and give it a watch.
Better have a good refuse sack to hand to barf into when the propaganda gets too thick

ETA - typical Soviet confusion - the film starts off with a street scene of Scottish troops in kilts! Hence the Tipperary song...wonder if the Soviets took a shine to it when we were fighting them in 1919, same as how we stole Lilli Marlene from the boxheads.

That was supposed to be a Scottish unit; however, no bagpipes.
