Six P.M. is the 1946 American release title of the 1944 Soviet World War II film At 6 P.M. After the War (, (also At six o'clock in the evening after the war) by Ivan Pyryev.
In the very beginning of the Great Patriotic War, a young artillery officer Pavel (Ivan Lyubeznov) receives a package from an orphanage. In a leave, his comrade and he go to the orphanage to see the children who sent it. Pavel meets there a young woman Varia (Marina Ladynina). They fall in love from the first sight. They agree to meet again in Moscow "in 6 p.m. after the War'. Varia joins the army and becomes an anti-aircraft gunner. Varia and Pavel meet again after the War.
The Russian film title alludes to the agreement of the Good Soldier à  vejk and sapper VodiÃÂka on their way to the front, to meet at the pub "By the Chalice" (U Kalicha) "at 6 p.m. after the war". In the film, the two young lovers agree to meet at 6 p.m. after the war at the Bolshoy Kamenny Bridge in Moscow. Since then the expression has become a Russian catch phrase.
Another version connects the title with a poem written by the Soviet poet Yevgeniy Dolmatovsky during the Winter war with Finland in 1940. The poem entitled merely '6 P.M." has the line "at 6 P.M. after the War" as the refrain.
