A certain helmet was stolen, there is a certain Associate Professor and there is a certain opposite of him, which is two drops of water similar to him. This is how the story of Troshkin's incredible adventures begins, and he gets into the gang, and becomes an Associate Professor, and what is there to retell the plot known to everyone. The magnificent and rich comedy of Alexander Seroy took over all the best traditions of comedy, as directed by Leonid Gaidai, and the film became one of the most popular films of the USSR. As Yevgeny Leonov claimed in his interviews, "Yes, we thought we were just acting in a joke," this joke has become a story that, along with Leonid Gaidai's comedies, is the most frequently reviewed. Especially curious and interesting adventures develop under unpretentious music. Every accidentally, or not accidentally, spoken phrase in the film became winged, and to this day this picture cannot be overlooked and it is impossible not to love. "I'll tear my mouth", "I'll blink out", "Don't make a fire" and many other phrases have become especially popular with the mass audience, everything stuck in my head and was remembered, loved. Special thanks There was a lot of trouble with the selection of cement mortar for filming. Radner Muratov recalled: "The day came when they began to lower us there. A tank with an ordinary bread starter, colored with bread onion essence, rolled up. The composition was so tart, sticky ... we got out of this solution after filming and washed faster, somehow scraped it off ourselves. We look, but there is no Vitsin. It turned out that he continues to sit in the tank, because he learned that this composition of 23 medicinal herbs and prolongs youth for 15 years." The fact is that the actors themselves knew how to joke and treated their work with respect.

As soon as the New Year comes, this film is immediately shown on all TV screens in Russia, and I have a strong association with this holiday. As for the plot, it is very interesting and even a little adventurous. The convicts in this witch are presented not as villains, but as simple and even good people. Of course, such an image would not have been possible without the brilliant performance of the actors playing the main roles. Alexey Leonov, Savely Kramarov and Georgy Vitsin brilliantly coped with their work. So, it's great soviet comedy.

Story is the classical doubleganger comedy . This time a kindergarten helper is used by the police to get stolen and hid a golden helmet back from some criminals. I have watched old Russian comedies before and liked some a lot and liked others less. This did just not work for me. I did not find anything in the movie really funny. But it seems like a lot like it. Maybe the movie is also more fun for Russian people, But I guess sometimes comedies are also very individual what people like.

This is my favorite Russian comedy, and although it is 30 years old, people still enjoy it more than most other comedies today. A satiric and witty movie that revolves around an adventurous plot. The plot is basically that a convict (Dotsent) escapes from prison and the militia (Russian police) find the criminal's lookalike, a kindergarten teacher. He goes undercover and pretends to be a criminal to help the militia find the where the real convict has hidden a stolen mask. He makes a phony escape from the prison with two others, who think he is the real Dotsent. He eventually befriends with them and they become attached, but I won't reveal the rest. From my plot review it might seem as a violent movie or something like that, but actually it is good for the entire family. The movie is entertaining throughout and if you want to see a comparison with an American equivalent, it's like a lot like Seinfeld because it's a situational comedy. If you are a fan of Russian cinematography and haven't seen this one, watch it right away because this is a true classic with some of the greatest Russian actors (see cast).

Since it was a Soviet movie, I found the vhs-in at my grandfather's house. My Russian is not very good, but not quite my style.

Soldeirs of Fortune is often regarded as masterpiece of Soviet Filmmaking. However, most western viewers usually miss out on the main point that this movie tried to make. Soviet Union has big population of ex-prisoners who viewed themselves as heroes of societies of their time. During early years of Red revolution, people who were released from jails were one of the strongest segments of the "iron fist" that were essential to communism forces. The majority (that was target of communism ideology) were simple penniless people who were craving for chance to get a piece of socially acknowledged and legitimate (comparing to rich aristocratic lifestyle) equal way of life. Gentleman of Fortune presents a rich and historically important blend of mix of Soviet propaganda and effort of filmmakers to relate to prevailing audience. I was the among last generation that bears the values of shattered society. Filmmaking has made a colossal leap in recent couple of decades, from simple relation to the audience, to trackers of trends in popular culture and views. I truly believe that it is important that future film experts would be able to fully comprehend the essence of legacy that was left to us by older generations. Majority of western viewers will not be able to understand the humor and subtle context references that reflect nowadays dissolved soviet society. Soldiers of Fortune was primarily a comedy movie that was aimed to aggravate feelings of warmth and happiness in their customers. This movie tackles the problems of humanity and affection between individuals inside "evil" world of burglars and thieves. However, foreign viewers will be able to comprehend these references only of they have knowledge of culture and habits of filmmakers time. Therefore, as this particular movie is freely accessible in YouTube, I insist that if someone wants to fully interpret this movie, it is important to create special description of context in scenes. I would happily be able to provide these commentaries with possible collaboration of other soviet and post-soviet film experts to allow full experience to viewers of this masterpiece.

GENTLEMEN OF FORTUNE is another broad slice of Russian comedy that proves an interesting watch just to see how it compares to common Western attitudes and ideals. Once again the plot is an old-fashioned one and seems indebted to the style of Hollywood cinema in the 1930s. The general theme is cops and robbers with a particular look at the Russian prison system of the time. The narrative involves your usual 'lookalike' plot in which an innocent man - a teacher this time around - just so happens to be the exact double of a notorious imprisoned criminal. The criminal previously stole a priceless historical artifact but now refuses to reveal the location, so the teacher is sent out to involve himself with the man's contacts, pose as the criminal, and retrieve it. The rest of the tale goes from there. The story is full of the usual satire, slapstick, and unusual situations, and is well made for its time.
