1944 (film)
1944 is a 2015 Estonian action war drama film directed by Elmo Nüganen. The film first premiered in February 2015 in Berlin, Germany before its release in Estonia and other Northern European countries. It was selected as the Estonian entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 88th Academy Awards but it was not nominated.
The film is set in 1944, during the Battle of Tannenberg Line (25 July – 10 August 1944) until the Sõrve Peninsula Battle of Tehumardi (October – November 1944) and is shown through the eyes of Estonian soldiers who had to pick sides and thus fight against their fellow countrymen. Choices have to be made, not only by the soldiers, but also by their loved ones.
The film thus focuses on the individual in the context of the war rather than war itself, and shows the war from both perspectives - those of the Estonians in the Red Army and in the German Army.

Events
Top grossing films (U.S.)
Box office numbers were reported at the time as a percentage compared to "normal" business at each theater. For example, Going My Way performed at a massive 264% while To Have and Have Not was a hit at 173%. This is why exact dollar grosses for the period are unreliable at best.

Love Bullets (feat. Skylar Grey)
by: Will.I.AmLove will be the armor
Protect us from the pain
In our life
In our life
Even when the storm comes,
We'll stand out in the rain,
Watch it slide, live inside.
Here we stand against the world
You and I we rock the lullaby
Make me feel alive, cause the love will never day
Me put you long one,
Shot me down and we're gone,
Ain't no need to worry, don't call 911.
Bang-bang, a lot of bang-bang,
Shoot me with your love and got me feeling no pain.
Kill it, kill it baby with your love even, bang bang,
Baby, do it again.
So shoot me with your bullet, bullet, bullet,
Such a pretty bullet, bullet, bullet,
Go ahead and pull it, pull it, pull it,
Shoot me with your bullet, bullet, bullet.
So shoot me with your bullet, bullet, bullet,
Such a pretty bullet, bullet, bullet,
Go ahead and pull it, pull it, pull it,
Shoot me with your bullet, bullet, bullet.
Even if you're mad at me
And fighting all the time
It's alright, it's alright.
I would risk my sanity
I would lose my mind
For one night, for one night.
Here we stand against the world
You and I we rock the lullaby
Make me feel alive, cause the love will never day
Me put you long one,
Shot me down and we're gone,
Ain't no need to worry, don't call 911.
Bang-bang, a lot of bang-bang,
Shoot me with your love and got me feeling no pain.
Kill it, kill it baby with your love even, bang bang,
Baby, do it again.
So shoot me with your bullet, bullet, bullet,
Such a pretty bullet, bullet, bullet,
Go ahead and pull it, pull it, pull it,
Shoot me with your bullet, bullet, bullet.
So shoot me with your bullet, bullet, bullet,
Such a pretty bullet, bullet, bullet,
Go ahead and pull it, pull it, pull it,
