The directorial manner of Gaidai with her peculiar bias in buffoonery and enthusiasm of Zoshchenko’s works in this film met very successfully. “Pressing” in the film 3 plots, each of which is rich in itself, forced to use every minute of timekeeping, and allowed the film to saturate many cinematically vivid. Dynamic action, brilliant play of movie stars, expressive portraits of characters even of a very second plan. A lot of phrases in precisely found intonations that have enriched the already rich Russian language.
Excellent stylization of the Soviet 1920s and 50 years later, Gaidai, apparently, did not have a hard time picking up the appropriate cityscapes for filming. In each of the 3 plots - according to the song, obtained masterpieces in themselves, the original performance of which in the film to this day could not be surpassed by anyone.
