Crappy film
I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
I was looking for this old soviet comedy for two years, as this is the debut work by very good armenian-Russian film director Albert Sarkisovich Mkrtchan (he is famous for Zemlya Sannikova and Prikosnovenie).The film is about a young lazy-bones, who goes here and there with an alcohol addict, played by great Russian comedian Vizin. They just get money and drink , but Misha (the main character) fells in love with a sweet and intelligent blondie, who teaches him to be honest and responsible.Film is very bright example of the best in soviet 70s- full of music, comic situations and fantastic actors and actress.Partly film was shot in Zelenograd, partly somewhere near the Black sea. Good beginning for great film career.
