Herman Jr. has for my personal taste the most worthwhile paintings - "Dovlatov" (2018) - although we have not fully revealed the image.
The film was scolded very badly.
and "Paper Soldier" (2008), they're good with
historical standards. "The Case" was shown in Cannes and caused a big backlash at the premiere screening.
The film, from the artistic line - I put well, and from the human and logical, in terms of the actions of intelligent people - satisfactory.
The movie did not have enough breath, because understanding that so acute and relevant about the intellectual to shoot in our time is impossible, because
In Russia, it is difficult to change anything in terms of corruption or politics. The weakest thing in the movie is the script, there are moments.
which are associated with the main character - illogical, for example, the scene with a sheet on the balcony, they carry a complete lack of consistency
and mindfulness. I didn’t have any salute and thoughtfulness after watching. Merab Ninidze within the script, of course, holds the maximum
attention, and I liked my beloved Anna Mikhalkova - organically and convincingly, but Pal - disappointed, there was not enough depth of image, again.
It's a flaw in the script. The film is worth watching, hopelessness is also here, as well as much in our lives, for this and acting - 5 /10.👓
