Get the popcorn ready...What Russian film do all cosmonauts watch before a launch?

Russians have their own brand of superstition. For instance, every cosmonaut heading for a launch must watch the 1970 Russian film, White Sun of the Desert, the night before their flight. Although we're not sure how this tradition began, it lives on through Venus's craters, which are named after the film's characters.
