The Greek teacher Belikov, who works in a rural gymnasium, loved to keep things in cases, was afraid of everything and lived himself, as if in a case, on the principle: “no matter what happens”. By this principle, he literally "terrorized" the gymnasium and the villagers. Hope appeared when Varenka arrived in the village - “not a girl, but marmalade”, although she was already aged, and “did not mind being married, even if only to a teacher of the Greek language”. close

But the film itself is far from serious-- instead it's a witches' brew of the scary, gross, and darkly humorous. close

In 1958, when the cartoonist V. Kotyochkin and his colleagues created the cartoon “The Fox and the Wolf”, there were no color televisions in the houses and apartments of the audience. Nevertheless, the painters did not skimp on the colors – the children watched cartoons in cinemas, where they were available in all their glory. And since this cartoon was created based on folk tales, for the children of that distant time it was doubly fascinating.
Once a fox handbag went out for a walk, and all the birds were frightened: a handsome snowman, and a cautious grouse Terentius. He flew higher, listened to the fox stories about how the crook in the city was, and just in case he fulfilled her request - he told me where the man was going on a sled. And he went to the river, he wanted to catch a fish and small, and great, so that he took out a rich catch to his delight. The fox pricked her ears, began to lick: how to take fish from a man? She ran at full speed, fell on the road and pretended to be dead.
As the sleigh reached her, I saw a man in his way a luxurious collar to his wife on a fur coat. Raised the fox by the tail and threw it on the straw. And the cunning passenger threw all the fish into the snow and then jumped. She'll have a nice dinner, and the man's empty.
A happy peasant came home, and there were no foxes or fish in the sled. A grumpy wife with fists attacked him, and he recognized the poor man, how much a pound dashed. But the fox itself was waiting for a thunderstorm - while she was feasting on a fish, an angry and hungry wolf got on the road. He showed his terrible teeth red, but the fox was not lost and suggested that the predator catch fish himself. The wolf did not know how to do this, and then came up with a purse how to deceive him. close
