Polyushko-pole

The song was covered many times by many artists in the Soviet Union, including a well-known rock version recorded by Poyushchiye Gitary (Поющие гитáры), released c. 1967.

[5][6] The song is the third one heard at the beginning of Cast Away, an American movie starring Tom Hanks, right after Elvis Presley's "Heartbreak Hotel" and "All Shook Up".

The song is used throughout the movie "REDS" (1981), the epic historical drama about American journalist John Reed who chronicled the October Revolution in Russia in 1917.

The song plays during a scene taking place at the Greek Parliament for Kremlin, in the Nikos Perakis film Loufa & Parallagi (1984).

It is used in the opening scene of the TV series Kleo, and a remix version by Modeselektor appears in the closing credits of the season 1 final episode.
