Made in USSR I have read so many reviews about this film. But probably the fans are elderly people, ignorant of history and never left the USSR. Because in Karasikovo & #39; Glass & #39; I personally didn't see any Queen Anne, no Duchess of Marlborough - no English at all! Typical
Soviet physiognomy and mannerisms. The Duchess is a nasty bitch-secretary of the director of the Moscow meat factory, there is absolutely nothing aristocratic and English in her. The Queen is some kind of Snow Maiden. The guy can't play at all. The list of historical mistakes in the film is huge (I will not list it, you can see it above, but the main thing is that neither the architecture, costumes, nor the atmosphere correspond to the era). Why do Soviet cinema, and for company - and a little-known playwright Scribe forgive this?
Gray, tight, not funny. With ' The Favourite' did not compare, because I did not watch and I am not going to, but if you compare with the British TV series ' First Churchill' (1969!!!!), you can immediately see the difference in the quality of the script and acting. And not in favor of the Soviet film.
Nostalgia for childhood/youth is the enemy of all objectivity, comrades!
