   A couple of bits of trivia about that film...   
      
   The helm that Nevsky wears is a direct copy of the historical   
   original.  They borrowed the actual helm from the Hermitage   
   museum to make the copy used in the film.   
      
   Prokoviev wrote the music for the battle on the ice before it was   
   filmed.  The battle was correographed to match the music.
