I know that it is customary to pray for this cartoon and give him the highest scores for love for everything Soviet, for nostalgia and for childhood. Comrades, the fact is that your childhood is not the merit of this cartoon. I will be objective – yes, the cartoon has its advantages: it is drawing, ahead of its time, and great music. But the plot and subtext of images is a solid sieve. The first few times I watched when I was 3-5 years old, and even then I experienced something disturbing from the whole cartoon that I could not express at that age. I can now. The girl has two fathers and no mother. Yes, of course, the father is one and the other is just a colleague, but at that age it was completely incomprehensible. A father, a mother, a child, a house, a tree, a bird on the horizon – any normal child should be able to draw such a picture. If a child paints this picture wrong, then he has problems in the family. And as a child, I was worried about the fact that dad, dad and daughter live in the star house. Why not fly your mother? Why is there not a single female human in the whole cartoon, but only amorphous female freaks? Finally, if it was decided that a child would be without a mother, why not make a crew of many people instead of two men? At least it would be moral that a child can be raised by society. As a child, I was also frightened by the image of Gromozeka - why does he have a rocket instead of eyes? They look like empty eyes. . . The plot is very small, it is replaced by acquaintance with alien animals - here the tiger rat has a longer right tail, here sunflowers with mirrors are rolling back the video, here the indicator can be knocked and it will become purple. Do you know what Westerners are saying? Not that they don’t like it at all, but the general point is that they see it as an elite lysergic nonsense, they are fascinated by the picture and the music, but they do not catch the meaning. For lack of one. “The bird Govorun differs in intelligence and ingenuity” – the bird Govorun is actually very stupid, and is an example of bright self-promotion, it constantly talks about its intelligence, but never demonstrates it. But children take their word for it, and if the bird says it's smart, then it is, what kind of example of intelligence will they see? The girl’s father is very irritating – he is a fool, he says that children in space are dangerous, and nevertheless takes her to other planets, lets her walk without a suit, leads her to a showdown with bandits, constantly overlooks her, and what does he say at the end? "You're a true friend." Do you understand? He doesn't know how to be a father, he has the same mind with Alice. And absolutely everything I wrote here, I vaguely felt as a child, just now I can put it into words. And only one realization added to the whole gloomy picture with age: the child has two dads not for some simple reason or even because they are gay, but because Alice’s father is pancake Dr. Green, with whom they are so similar, and Professor Seleznev is only her mother’s husband.
