The recent Soviet films that I've watched!

These are some of the Soviet films that I've watched and I recommend you to have a look as well! These films are starting to grow on me ever since my interest in Russian culture began to develop! And I believe everyone should watch these films, as well!

1. Garage — Eldar Ryazanov

The first film I watched was "Garage". It is a one-room film which I oddly enjoyed? In some parts, I laughed, and in some parts, I went serious.

It's about a group of people who argue about losing their parking spots for the garage because of a new highway construction, but the way they hilariously created the tension and the drama is what brings me close to this story! I liked it so far and you should give it a go, as well!

2. Afonya — Georgiy Daneliya

The second movie I watched. They said this movie was a "comedy".

HOW IS THIS A COMEDY?

They must have mistakenly thought this movie would make others laugh, but instead.. why do I feel hopeless? Why am I depressed while I'm watching it? Poor Afonya, man.. tells a lot how a man feels given up at some point and when he tries to change things always go downhill for him. Sometimes Afonya is not guilty, but sometimes he is. Being disconnected from reality is the worst thing that could happen to one person.

But, aside from the depressive moments, this movie was so well made! And in between I realised the protagonist is played by the SAME actor who played the role of George Miloslavsky from Ivan Vasilievich Changes Profession! I'm able to guess the actors now and it's such a miracle now *sniff*

3. Beware of the Car — Eldar Ryazanov

The third film was directed by the same person who also created "The Garage". I first thought of watching this film for Anatoli Papanov and Andrei Mironov, but somehow it also touched my heart for the protagonist, Yuri Detochkin as well. Sure he did steal cars, but sold them for good intentions. I also loved the friendship between him and the detective Maxim, and how he deals with the inner conflict of whether he wants to defend his friend or portray him as a thief. This film was so heartwarming, it felt like almost crying.
