Robbery The son of a farm laborer, entering the Komsomol, faces incredible difficulties, but a persistent young man overcomes them, because nothing, not even death, can stop the ardent fighter for the cause of Lenin, for the cause of the revolution.
The film takes place in 1927. Three years after the absence of the leader of the world proletariat, the Soviet Komsomol members must lay their young lives on his cause. And we must give them their due – they try as best they can, steadfast and irreconcilable to class enemies. But if the indomitable, steel Pavka Korchagin built a railway, did a useful thing, then our heroes mercilessly take away from the kulaks the goods they have gained and sit at meetings in order to clarify questions such as: can a Komsomol man have a horse? If it were to make fun of those who led the country in those years, the satire would be excellent, but the purpose here is different. The authors wanted to show how the Soviet power gained its position. In 1972, in the midst of stagnation, the film was more than relevant and would pass for heroic, because the hero is ready to risk his life, one girl was not afraid of torture and dishonor, and the second betrayed his father-fist. After all, it was necessary for young people to burn their brains to distract them from empty shelves and other achievements of the Soviet system, now it looks with horror and sympathy on the side of not talkers, but “exploiters”. Yes, a little time will pass and all these fighters will share the fate of their victims - for which they fought and ran into it.
Because of the accents, a negative review.
