Seagull people I don’t understand why this movie is underrated and underrated. The film is definitely memorable, leaving a trace in the soul. Everyone will see something of their own.
Despite the fact that it takes a long time, it is very interesting to watch it.
About Natasha personally I immediately became clear from the first shots from Yalta. But there was still a faint hope that she at least loved her parents. Mashnaya played perfectly, I believe her 100%, as well as the hero of Bogatyrev, helpless in his new situation, but not desperate, and Elena Solovey, who perfectly played a wife-friend, empathizing and supporting in everything. And they both have no idea what happened to their Natasha. And it happened a long time ago, in a distant childhood, when beautiful caring parents, a father who provides comfort and prosperity and a mother who did not give up her job as a doctor and at the same time maintains comfort in the house, simply forgot to give their daughter the only thing that distinguishes us from animals - humanity. And the groom Igor, communicating with her even before all family events, simply did not notice that she had to be afraid and run away from her before, that her whole nature simply did not manifest as clearly as now, when this was given a push. Natasha simply does not know that there is another life, that her father can make mistakes and become weak, perhaps she never thought about the fact that her parents will become elderly and may need care, she forgot about the one who fed her with a spoon and put her on her feet as a child. Or she just doesn’t have, and never has, the most ordinary human compassion, gratitude, or just love. First and foremost, self-love. The “dignity” she cries out to her mother when she tells her the news and new circumstances in the family, and which she measures by her position in society, has nothing to do with the dignity of the present. She herself does not and never had dignity, since she so acutely perceived the words of the elevator driver, the heroine of Nonna Mordyukova, who simply told her the truth. People like Natasha live by other people’s opinions, fashion, stereotypes of society, live “like people” and “at the level”. These are “successful”, “promising” and ruthless consumers, people “don’t change” and “will you help deliver?” The opposite of Natasha is the younger brother of Igor Kohl. The unfortunate sick boy, subtly feeling everything that is happening around him, perceiving other people's pain as his own and desperately screaming and banging at the window in the last shots, it seemed to me: "Natasha, why are you like this?" How did you become like that?” And Natasha, as if nothing had happened, went on a morning run, not thinking about where the parents were all night, who ran away from her ruthlessness. In the last shot, the director shows us seagulls, and the hero of Bogatyrev says to his wife: “You have nothing to eat in your purse, throw the seagulls?” I'm afraid they'll eat us. Seagull people constantly need to throw something, otherwise they will just eat.
