Kingdom of Crooked Mirrors is a 1964 Soviet fairy tale film directed by Aleksandr Rou based on a story with the same name by Vitali Gubarev. Both the surreal story by Vladimir Gubarev, together with the 1964 film, written in a Through The Looking Glass style. Alice-type Soviet girl, named Olya meets her counterpart Yalo, while looking into the mirror. Yalo is an absolute antipode to Olya, for example where Olya is precise and neat, Yalo is absent-minded, careless, etc. The explicit plot relates to Olya learning to see herself differently, but this occurs through an experience in the Kingdom of Crooked Mirrors which serves as a mechanism for commenting on the ability of a society to manufacture a false reality. close

The cartoon “Canterville Ghost” is a kind of film adaptation of the work of O. Wilde, decorated with the voices of venerable actors. A wealthy American family acquires a castle in England with more than three hundred years of history. The owners of the castle explain that the ghost of Simon Canterville lives in it. The British consider it their duty to warn new owners, even knowing that it may scare them away. But the news caused the pragmatic head of the family completely different thoughts. He took the ghost as an extra commodity for which he would have to pay. The astonished owner replied that he could take the ghost for free.
Every morning, Americans find a red spot on the floor. The father of the family tries to bring it out, but the next day it reappears. The ghost is trying to intimidate the owners. He rattles chains at night, but the new owner of the castle simply complains that he prevents them from sleeping and offers lubrication to make the chains less noisy. Children, seeing a ghost, are also not afraid, and begin a fun hunt for him. And no matter what the ghost does, it turns out that the twins give him much more inconvenience than he gives them.
An annoyed Simon Canterville recalls the old days when the castle was inhabited by lords and noble ladies who were so easy to scare. And the new owners don't take anything. One day he meets the young daughter of an American couple, who learns that it was a ghost who stole her colors in order to paint a stain. Having communicated with the ghost, she is imbued with sympathy for him and even the fact that he killed his wife, the girl is not particularly embarrassed, because she was bad herself and did not know how to cook. At the end of the film, the girl helps the ghost find freedom, which he is incredibly happy about. But the father of the family is upset, and he has his reasons for this.
Interesting facts
During the creation of the cartoon, the technology of translucent pouring or “blurring” was first used.
Production designer Lana Azarch admitted to a press source that the work on the Canterville Ghost project was not combined with any ideological issues related to Britain. In order to make the castle as similar as possible to the real one, she studied the “spirit of the country” in libraries.
The cartoon “Canterville Ghost” was the third adaptation of the work of O. Wilde. In 1944 and 1964, two feature films were created on the same theme. close

The traveler frog has become a household name for all mountain tourists whose voyages end in fiasco. And Vsevolod Garshin came up with this image, from under whose pen came many instructive stories. One of them formed the basis of the eponymous cartoon "Travel Frog". The roles were voiced by talented Soviet actors Rostislav Plyatt, Mikhail Yanshin, Erast Garin, Elena Ponsova and Larisa Pashkova. The film was shot by Vyacheslav Kotenochkin and Alexander Trusov.
Unprecedented flight
The plot unfolds on a swamp, which was visited by ducks, crouched to rest before a long and complex flight to warm lands. An incredibly curious groove enters into a conversation with them, confident that dinner will not be for them - it is too big and slippery.
Fascinated by the story of the south, where there are the same swamps, there are clouds of appetizing midges, and most importantly, the warmth, groove-eyed heroine in every possible way begs migratory birds to take her with them. Ducks would be happy to take, but they do not know how she is going to fly there without wings.
The desire at all costs to visit where the midges themselves ask for a mouth helps the amphibian to find a brilliant in its simplicity way out - two ducks will take a strong branch into their beaks, and the frog will grab it with its large mouth. Amazed by her intelligence, the birds agree and go along with the traveler on a long road.
Perhaps the croak would have reached the promised south, if not for her boasting. Like the crow in Krylov’s fable, she did not stand the test of flattery and lost her only chance to be far away in warm lands. And yet everything ended well for the traveler. Floating in a foreign swamp, she began to tell amazing stories about her adventures in distant countries, which had nothing to do with reality. And she continued to look forward to the sky, waiting for the ducks to descend again next to her and take on their risky voyage.
The second life
The 1965 cartoon was re-released on DVD as part of the collection “Merry Adventures”, which collected animated films “Soyuzmultfilm”, the plot of which somehow related to travel.
According to the fairy tale of Vsevolod Garshin, three animated films have been shot at the moment: in 1965 by Vyacheslav Kotenochkin, in 1996 by Valentin Karavaev and in 2005 by Alexei Bovkun. The film Karavaev participated in the competition program of the festival "Tarusa-1997". close
