Reply to comment by WR810 in TIL that Simo Häyhä AKA the sniper White Death kept a Winter War diary, that was discovered in 2017 from his nephew's drawer, when a local museum was looking for memorabilia for an exhibition on Häyhä by Nopatme
They had a Russian White Death in Bullet Train...
The director of Rukajärven tie, one of the better Finnish WW2 movies, tried to make a Finnish-funded one about Häyhä in about 2015 but nothing resulted of that project.
That director had some personal troubles that made him a regular in misbehaving celebrity watch so maybe that contributed as well to the decision to not grant any Finnish film institute funds to the project.
