The main character - a lady worthy, but for a man's perception of a complex, alas, too ... - would not hurt the stylist, but in the USSR the very name of such luxury knew few. What magic with the character of Yankovsky something could grow together in her, and still going in the fight for her female happiness in a way so unconventional, from understanding escapes, the version of the possibility of his passion for autotraining, as well as a penchant for introspection, and so deep, convincing does not seem at all – you can believe in the gradual emergence of his fascination with her feminine virtues, but still his game of peeping with a flirting random girl “on potatoes” looks much more reliable.
Everyone else is good. Well shot. The mass of characteristic details characteristic of the “pre-perestroika” 80th. Yankovsky is expressive in the image of not Munchausen but a producer. The friend of the main character, the character of Vsevolod Shilovsky, a great master of supporting roles, is remembered immediately by Todorovsky in “The Favorite Woman of the Mechanic Gavrilov” and “Military Field Novel”.
A great episode of conflict over a dog, especially waving his fists after a fight with Yankovsky’s name as cattle: a cute illustration of Soviet civil solidarity.
