everything you have heard about this movie is true.
If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
Impressively performed by a four person cast and filmed in a single decor, this is a theater derived account of the three middle aged men Yuriy (Gosha) Kutsenko, Dmitriy Maryanov and Konstantin Yushkevich, friends since their college days, gathered for a vodka fueled diner and unexpectedly confronted by the girl they all desired when they studied together.Though (the spoiler) reduced to a wheel chair, TV actress Apeksimova, who was in the Val Kilmer THE SAINT, makes the character impressively desirable. As in the Dassin LA LEGGE and the Celantano ER PIU, they play the Truth Game with disturbing results.Pity they come up with such a conventional ending after all the revealing character material.Effective,mobile colour and scope filming.
