Ahead of time

Many of us at least once in their childhood wanted to become adults. Trying on the clothes of parents, copying their gestures and making fun of those around them. But with the entry into adolescence, this dream may seem even more attractive, because it is during this period that everyone has to experience the first love and the first disappointment. And the idea to quickly become so fifteen years older begins to seem the perfect solution to all problems. Director Penny Marshall was not the first, and far from the last, who turned to the subject of turning a child into an adult and vice versa in just one moment. But her efforts were not in vain - this tale with a simple name still became special. The plot takes us to the American suburbs, where ordinary children and the same ordinary parents live. Their problems are no different from ours, because on weekdays they go to school and work, and on weekends they spend time with their families. Only one such family vacation in the amuseme

The dominant fabulous director of the Soviet Union, Alexander Rowe, in 1964, added to the number of his successful and largely innovative films, another tale that sunk the viewer into the heart for many long years, remaining a beautiful, attractive, instructive and kind spectacle to this day - This is the film "Frost." It is quite possible that the first part of the tape will not be boring to watch, the viewer will rather watch this action with a certain perplexity, for, echoing the canons of fairy tales, we are not occupied with the background of the characters for too long, but are immediately "thrown" into the cycle of events. But here's what is just weak in “Frost” - this prehistory is completely here, well, by 80 percent so surely, it is absent. Therefore, with the heroes, with their former life and the causes of their actions, as well as their upbringing, we get to know each other consistently over the course of timekeeping, because it is sometimes di

Impressions and a little about the past

I recently revised the film “Home Alone” - just in time for the holiday on the occasion of Christmas - and caught myself thinking that I could not stop loving him, like twenty years ago, when I first saw it on TV. I remember that very first time. I watched it in German because I was in Germany. In the 90s in Belarus there was at one time a stir like this - to help children living in the zone affected by the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. Then for the first time I had the opportunity to go abroad and meet the new year outside the walls of a public institution. The biggest gift was this particular film, and it was with him that I began to associate the Christmas holiday. I remember myself sitting on the carpet in front of the TV with my mouth open and not taking my eyes off the events taking place on the screen: a house rich in illumination, large and bright, as in childhood dreams; fussy big family, somewhere tossing parents, uncles, aunts, children and a policem

Impossible, unthinkable

Unusual film on the play Schwartz about love with a wonderful selection of actors. The film is filled with wonderful dialogues and phrases, which later became cruise. - Let's celebrate our meeting, with a meeting, for this thing - to the bottom! - Do not drink. - Why? Want to hurt? Guest offend? - Hush, not at home. - Do not teach me. I will blink - ministers will write off, express regret and that's it. Though at home, at least not at home - drink! - Do not drink. - Why? - The wine is poisoned. - What? - Poisoned. - What came up with something. - Then drink the first. - Right, poisoned wine. Why throw it away, you do not want, do not drink, pour it into a bottle and that's it. Where I now get poison, good. On the road, something necessary. The girl falls in love with a guy from the first meeting: Gentlemen, this young man is my best friend. As a child I always envied girls who had brothers, and now I regret it, because I like him more than my brother.

Plow yes harrow (Kin and other disasters)

Having thought about which of the directors of the Soviet cinema was the most rare-lifting, I remembered three surnames - two predictable, and one not so much. German, Tarkovsky, Menshov. We'll talk about the first two separately, but the third ... It would seem that the Oscar winner, the author of the mega-super-duper-hit of the entire twentieth century in general (I’m talking about Moscow, who doesn’t believe in tears, of course) and a few hits of just a little smaller caliber - however, only 8 films at the moment, 5 of them are for the Soviet period, and I don’t know anything about 2 of them without Google’s brother, and I don’t want to know. But - three pearls, among which it is impossible to select the brightest. Today - about the birds. “Love and doves” is not just a successful naming, but a whole philosophy. It would be worth starting with the fact that Menshov started this film after “Moscow”, which thundered all over the world. In today's sequel times, it is surpr

My favorite Soviet movie!

Once again, on some holiday, when I saw the advertisement of the Office Romance on TV, I was extremely happy, and I caught myself thinking that this was my favorite Soviet film! There are many excellent, Soviet films, which I am madly in love with, but “Office Romance” is a particular favorite for me, I single it out among all the films of that wonderful time when such MASTERPIECES were filmed. I don’t even know how many times I watched this movie, very much, that’s for sure, and every time I watch it again, like a first time with insane interest and joy. I like everything in this movie. Brilliant actors, whom I love madly, beautiful music, which penetrates into the very depths of the soul, phrases and dialogues, which have long gone on quotes. The theme of love, which plays the main role in this movie, is perfectly revealed, and disclosed so that it is remembered for a very long time. Every movie scene is brilliant. And how I always laugh when they show the scenes of the first c

Unforgettable French movie.

What associations can a person have with the word "Taxi"? Associations can be different, it can be money, speed, traffic jams, but in this case associations will be with this film. And I myself also liked this film as a child, and so far, it’s not lost, so to speak, its charm and it’s always interesting to watch and relax while watching it. For all the time that he was shown, many have probably already remembered from and to, his entire plot. But still, no sin will tell him. The plot itself, quite simple, but with such a plot, it was able to make a truly worthwhile movie. The film takes place in such a landmark city of Marseilles. The film tells about a young guy, whose name is Daniel. He likes to ride his newly-acquired taxi, the Peugeot brand, with various modifications, and he also does not respect the law and constantly violates the rules. But Emilien has to be such an awkward, but very funny guy who works in the police and can not catch the gang in the red Merce
