Forceful Kiss: Two of them, back-to-back. The first one is a Soviet soldier sexually harassing Lyudmila, which is interrupted by Makarov. Then Lyudmila forcibly kisses Makarov. | |

Overranked Soldier: A real-life example. Lyudmila went from a private to a lieutenant in just nine months, at the age of 24. The most egregious example is when Lyudmila is in the war room planning with a council of generals, even though she's only a lieutenant. | |

Tomboy with a Girly Streak | |
| Battle For Sevastopol / int_5312637f | comment |
Tomboy with a Girly Streak: The matter of Lyudmila's gender is a central theme of the film. At first, as a civilian, she's a girly girl, but boot camp and the Siege of Odessa forces her to toughen up into a tomboyish soldier. She only begins to reconnect to her forgotten femininity when she befriends Eleanor. A good example of this is when Eleanor encourages her to wear a comfortable dress instead of a stuffy military uniform at a speech. | |

Artistic License – History | |
| Battle For Sevastopol / int_56515a39 | comment |
Artistic License – History: There's one very glaring example. The film completely forgets the fact that her family's name was Byelov, the real-life Lyudmila had a son when she was 16 with Dr. Aleksey Pavlichenko, whom she also married (hence her last name) and divorced within a few months. In the film, she has a son with Leonid when she's 24. There's no mention of Aleksey in the film (though there is another doctor she's romantically involved with named Boris, who is fictional), and in real-life Lyudmila never had a child with Leonid. The film portrays Lyudmila as almost obsessively focused on academic studies before joining the army with little interest in a social life, though she does at least have a few friends. Accounts of the real Lyudmila describe her as much more outgoing. In the film, Lyudmila gets hit by two artillery shells and shot in the lung by a sniper, forcing her to retire. In real life, she only received one injury before being forced into retirement; a mortar shell. Lyudmila's real story was heavily propagandized and censored by the Soviet Union, with multiple conflicting accounts of her life and combat experience, leaving her Shrouded in Myth. A rumor even persisted for decades in the Soviet Military that she never existed at all, and was invented for wartime propaganda. Lyudmila was very real, very effective as a sniper, and very traumatized by the war, but the exact details of her life are difficult to pin down. | |

Babies Ever After: Leonid impregnated Lyudmila on the battlefield, and she presumably gave birth some time in 1943, after retiring. By 1957, she has an adolescent son she raised as a single mom. This is inaccurate. By 1957, the real Lyudmila's son was already 25. | |

Black-and-Gray Morality | |
| Battle For Sevastopol / int_8767b1f3 | comment |
Black-and-Gray Morality: The Soviet Union is not mindlessly glorified. Their demonization of Germans is treated negatively, and when Lyudmila is confronted with her country's crimes (such as the gulags, the Invasion of Poland, and the Winter War) by a reporter, she has no valid rebuttal. Two German soldiers are also humanized. Still though, the USSR is simply defending itself from Nazis. | |

Cool Gun: After knocking out a tank by shooting the driver through his viewport with an armor-piercing round, Lyudmila is recognized by General Petrov and given a Tokarev SVT semiautomatic rifle. The next scene is Makarov teaching Lyudmila how to properly care for the accurate but notoriously high-maintenance SVT. Pavlichenko really used such a weapon, though there are conflicting versions of when and under exactly what circumstances she received it. | |

Dehumanization: Lyudmila kills "fascists" without remorse or hesitation because she considers them subhuman. She even gleefully tortures one of them by shooting him in non-lethal areas. This becomes a matter of contention between her and Leonid. | |

The Big Damn Kiss | |
| Battle For Sevastopol / int_9438e550 | comment |
The Big Damn Kiss: Lyudmila has three. What a player. First, she kisses Makarov after rejecting another soldier's Forceful Kiss. He rejects her advances. Second, she kisses Boris in gratitude for signing her medical report papers to let her get back to fighting. Finally, she kisses Leonid, which seals the deal in their marriage. It's also a very bloody kiss, which is kinda gross. | |

Shrouded in Myth | |
| Battle For Sevastopol / int_be8416ea | comment |
Lyudmila's real story was heavily propagandized and censored by the Soviet Union, with multiple conflicting accounts of her life and combat experience, leaving her Shrouded in Myth. A rumor even persisted for decades in the Soviet Military that she never existed at all, and was invented for wartime propaganda. Lyudmila was very real, very effective as a sniper, and very traumatized by the war, but the exact details of her life are difficult to pin down. | |
