Sweet aftertaste From this feature film, in every sense of the film, and not the serial soap that has flooded the screens in the last decade, remains a taste of something lost, so familiar and friendly! Because at the beginning of the two thousandth managed to convey the spirit of the 80s, the beginning of the fatal perestroika, after which Russia began to sculpt Pindos! An excellent plot of the wonderful writer Yuri Polyakov, who knows the whole Soviet literary brethren from the inside. The cast is selected precisely, and how the characters are revealed!
After the defeat in the Cold War, we are diligently imposed on other people’s values, although what are their values – another model of an obscenely expensive iPhone, chemical soda and plastic sandwiches? Only now people wake up to the consciousness that we are different and life is given not for glamorous shopping, but for moral satisfaction! Looking at all these pseudo-comedies, such as Love-Carrot and the like 'masterpieces', it was only sad to watch the loss of all Russian canons!But the ice moved, gentlemen of the jury and now the inevitable turn back to the origins began! The fascination with the West has passed, a new chapter of our history is beginning, let us hope for the revival of the Russian spirit and Russian cinema! The series was filmed a long time ago, many actors are no longer with us. It is worth seeing at least because of the level of acting skills of Olga Aroseva, Spartak Mishulin and Alexander Belyavsky and unobtrusively compare with the current generation, absorbed Hollywood standards!
The series unambiguously watch to shake off the alien harmful spirit, this is a real Russian cinema!
