Anton Rubinstein - The Demon/ Антон Рубинштейн - Демон (1960) with English Subtitles

with custom English subtitles (click ’CC’ at bottom right of player to turn on subtitles) The Demon: Georg Ots Prince Sinodal: Sergei Lemeshev Tamara: Olga Kashevarova* *According to the Russian version of Wikipedia, Tamara is sung by Olga Kashevarova. If so, then it is an unknown young actress miming her voice (Kashevarova would have been 54 in 1960). Alternately, one knowledgeable poster to YouTube has stated that the voice is that of Elizaveta Shumskaya. Still another claims that Tamara is sung by Elena Shumilova. As the credits from the telefilm are missing and presumably were originally given (like that of the same director’s telefilm of “Dubrovsky“) as a voiceover at the beginning of the broadcast, I am not currently aware of any source from which to verify the identity of the cast. Directed by Vitaly Golovin The custom subtitles are based upon the translation by Juan Gherzi. The narrative extracts from the original poem by Mikhail Lermontov were subtitled by Philipp Reznikov (), substituting the equivalent lines in English from a 19th-century translation (the author of which is unknown).
