Films like Baltic Deputy.

Baltic Deputy (1936) reads as Neutral, steady, measured drama / historical, grounded in texture. Redemptive, mid-stakes, measured. Every film below is ranked by distance across the same twelve hand-scored axes — with what it keeps, and where it walks away. Not a genre dump.
