No one will regret watching it.
Soviet works amaze film fans not only with their well-developed and sincere scripts, but also with their external design: costumes, sets and general atmosphere. And this was at a time when creators’ options were very limited.
These 14 films, forgotten by a wide audience, will remind everyone how painstakingly and carefully film crews in the USSR approached the process of filmmaking:
‘The Old, Old Tale’, based on the works of Hans Christian Andersen, has become a memorable experience in the life of every Russian. The makers brought the great writer’s stories to the screen with attention to all details, which is clearly reflected in catchy outfits, colorful sets and brilliant acting. The film received high ratings not only in the Soviet Union, but also abroad, where foreign viewers admired the film crew’s approach.
A worthy competitor of “The Irony of Fate” is rightfully considered “The New Year’s Adventures of Masha and Vitya”, which, however, is not shown so often on television. Too bad, where else can you see a rock fairy tale with the musical duet of the Boyarskys, a young and cheerful Baba Yaga, and the same butler Konstantin 30 years before the resounding success in “My Fair Nanny”?
“Pious Martha” is a musical comedy that captivated thousands of Soviet viewers. Why wasn’t the film on the list of big hits? The fact is that Oleg Vidov, who played the lieutenant, moved to the USA five years after the premiere and the film was taken off the air.
