The Unforgettable Year 1919 (Nezabyvaemyy 1919 god) is a 1951 Soviet two-part historical movie directed by Mikhail Chiaureli and adapted from eponymous play by Vsevolod Vishnevsky. It depicts the events of Russian Civil war in May 1919 when White troops of General Nikolai Yudenich, supported by British Navy, carry out a successful offensive on Red Petrograd. A mutiny against Bolsheviks breaks out on the Krasnaya Gorka, a powerful fortress guarding Petrograd. The story centers on the person of Joseph Stalin (Mikhail Gelovani) who is shown as the saviour of Petrograd and the Soviet Power.


The following weapons were used in the film The Unforgettable Year 1919 (Nezabyvaemyy 1919 god):

Both Reds and Whites, notably the Representative of Special Department of Baltic Fleet Vladimir Shibayev (Boris Andreyev), Bolshevik Potapov (Vladimir Ratomskiy), one of the leaders of the mutiny on Krasnaya Gorka fortress Kupriyanov (Ivan Gerasimov), and British agent Paul Dukes (Vladimir Kenigson), use Nagant M1895 revolvers.
