In Reply to: Not much yet... posted by Victor Khomenko on November 26, 1999 at 06:24:57:
Hi, Victor
<<<
I have not finished this one yet - we got interrupted with all that
Thanksgiving commotion. It looks interesting and strange with the
actor I love - Bob Hoskins. This is his directing debut. I don't think
you need to spend much time looking for this one.
>>>Thank you, I'll try to find it.
>>>
***I have a strong feeling that *good* ones are in the past.Remember, to me "past" is many, many years ago.
<<<Ah-ha! Well, then your choice is considerable wider. Since my memory
still sucks, I'll start with just random two that I saw @ local shop
shelves yesterday:- Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson. 4 films (or 5?),
Vas. Livanov/Vit. Solomin. Try any, then get the rest if you like it.- Adventures of Prince Florisel. Oleg Dal'. Edgar Poe stories. 2 or 3
films. As above, get a trial (any) one, then the rest. :)To be continued...
>>>
Thank you, I copied this list and will give it to my wife. Don't know
when we are going to make it to the "Russian" area in Phily, but will
try. Lately I have been less than enthusiastic about going there. You
see more and more faces you'd rather not see - bandits have finally
arrived. Kind of crowd you see by the Botchka joint in Moscow.
<<<Are you sure? Say, I cut my hair fairly short and look kinda dangerous
without glasses. Could they be just peaceful programmers with contact
lenses? :)
OTOH if they're *real* bandits, maybe they can "dostat'" you this SVT-40?
>>>
***Damn. I must drink LESS.Latest research shows one needs at least a glass of wine a day to stay
healthy. Don't let yourself down.
<<<Damn! So that's why I feel so bad in my 100% sober days. ;-)
regards, gnat
***Thank you, I'll try to find it.As I mentioned before, it is DEFINITELY worth it. I loved it, my wife even more so. It's got very warm human undertones that are impossible to ignore. And several people play with their faces and voices, not legs or arms.

Appreciate a lot - whenever yo have a chance, just throw something in the direction ot the US of A. We went to Phily this weekend and rented four movies from your list. Buying three packs of pelmeny also added to trip justification. The Okhota was out. My wife liked the Genius and it was fun to watch good actors in Lubit' po-Russki (the sizes of those breasts were, well, quite unbelievable... no implants there...), she didn't care much for the action. So if you could dig into your "gentle" stock for more drama or commedy with good actors... BTW, did you see one of the latest Yankovski' work, something about two twin systers? I saw a promotion and it looked good, but many of them do.
Kind of crowd you see by the Botchka joint in Moscow.
< < <***Are you sure? Say, I cut my hair fairly short and look kinda dangerous
without glasses. Could they be just peaceful programmers with contact
lenses? :)Yeah, right... Lots of them "programmers" at the Botchka... I've spent enough years in the underbelly of Lygovka and Wyborgskaya to be able to tell a Cobol specialist from Sashka Krivoy.
***OTOH if they're *real* bandits, maybe they can "dostat'" you this SVT-40?
I am afraid they will sooner dostat' me WITH it.

Stay warm...

find *Rawney* in my dictionary as well. Please, translate it po-Russki.

to refresh my memories. :)

you have seen the big three: "Garage", "Ironia Sud'by", "Beregis' Avtomobilja".
If not, just get these. Then there was "Hi I'm your aunt" (="Zdravstvujte,
ja vasha tetja").

into Nikolaj II image. Guess I just fear to be disappointed comparing these
to his 80th works. "Munchgausen", "Routine Wonder" (="Obyknovennoje chudo"),
"Two Camerades" (="Dva tovarisha") with Rolan Bykov. I'm sure there are even
better than these, which I forgot. :(

I wonder now who is more dangerous?

find *Rawney* in my dictionary as well. Please, translate it po-Russki.It is predskazatel', or yasnovidets. None of my dictionaries had it, not even the Galperin or Muller. My American associate didn't know it either. The much more common word is 'seer' - it is a synonym.
***I hope you don't mind following local TV program - I'll use it's rotation

***I felt that nostalgic smell will add some value to Lubit' for you.
Matveev once played Brezhnev btw. :)He doesn't need any makeup for that, either. That was my first impression too.

< < <***"One drink in the morning - free the whole day". = "Vypil s utra - ves'

Speaking of good movies, we saw one more time the Rules of the Game last night. Highly recommended.
How much snow you got so far?
Victor.

played in Cotton Club, right?I still can't find it here, but there are two or three BIG shops left
unvisited yet.> > >

< < <Ummm... "Winter Cherry" = "Zimnyaya Vishnya". I remember I liked it... but
I forgot, whether it was melo- or just drama. And of course, I forgot
whether it was made in 70s or 80s. :)

Kinda exams... ;-) "Student Khomenko, what did XX congress of
