Resurrection was thought to be a lost[1][2] 1927 Hollywood adaptation of Leo Tolstoy's 1899 novel Resurrection. Filmmaker Edwin Carewe adapted the book to a feature-length silent production starring Dolores del Río and featuring an appearance by Ilya Tolstoy who co-wrote the script. In 1931, Edwin Carewe directed an all-talking remake of this film starred by Lupe Vélez.

Plot

Cast
gollark: Well, your current implementation lets them do stuff to OS files, so no.
gollark: I would recommend against #1, because weirdly enough people like being able to write, download and run programs.
gollark: In potatOS I do #2. Unfortunately the sandboxing implementation is about 500 lines of code, very version-specific because it runs half the BIOS for weird internal reasons, and has several known holes.
gollark: There are two ways around this:- make your "OS" unable to run arbitrary code and instead use a highly limited shell/GUI- sane sandboxing via providing no/a limited FS API to environments where you can run arbitrary code
gollark: The crux of the issue is that people can via a variety of methods write and run code which can edit your thing even if you pointlessly meddle with the shell.
