Luchino Fortsa (Giuliano Di Capua) – Rooks Italian origin, with the highest marks Rooks. However, as usual in people with this kind of class, at some point, he is not peredernul and not go into debt schaamteloos and then did hit the legs of his largest creditor, Austrian, who Fortse Threatens To remove all that you can, including the latest real estate. Diminish the Austrian player to give him a chance to return one hundred thousand debt because home in Naples – a mio caro, the last memory of papa e mamma.
Avstriyak agrees not to wait for more than a month. But where able to win such a huge amount in such a short time? But Luchino knows such a country, where the land is rich, and people trust and prostodushny. Russia – the so-called this country. When a player has lived in Russia and they even got married the daughter of non-poor parents. Later, going to Europe, he had always dreamed of returning to Russia-mother – if not to admire the Birches were dismissed, at least for the “Kids” any prostachka. Now Fortsa should rush into Russia’s honour. And because arse anything threat prison and the loss of all states.
Luchino arrived in a kind of sleepy county town, settled at postoyalom yard with the help of local and Alexei servants (Ignat Akrachkov) began to search for partners at banchishko. These partners were found immediately. This nerazluchnaya trinity zakadychnyh friends – Shvohnev (Sergei Makovetsky), Consolation (Sergei Garmash), and Krugel (Andrei Merzlikin). Beer and vodka in haste, four картежников agility on the cloth sword battles, but in a few minutes it became clear that not Senke cap. And not in the horse feed. And not a bullet in the head. Because they all four – Rooks.
Churches met to thrash three provincial idiots, and they were found herself toured the region and distributing kraplenye peredergivaya deck so that there was only dust of bills, vytaschennyh nezadachlivymi players inherited from the trunks.
Upon discovering this unfortunate misunderstanding, the man did not sever friend of a friend at the collars and demand soddisfazione. After all, why crows cause eye damage to another crow, but one shuleru quarrel with others? They need to come together and try prostakov – here it will be the right decision.
Comforting as a senior at Trinity friends invited Fortse strong friendship and the solid alliance. Yes, Russian specialists recognize the skill Overseas guest, which can work even with nekraplenoy deck zauchiv heart “jacket” of all cards. But Russian trinity well aware local realities, customs, and, importantly, local prostakov. And now they are just four mountains is minimized.
If not, of course, will try to smoshennichat with each other. And it is possible – very kind people.

Pavel Chukhrai, GEORGIA such films as “Thief” and “The driver for the Faith,” has decided to turn to the classics. The film “Russian game” put on the unfinished play Gogol “Players” (Gogol himself identified as a product of this genre of “dramatic passage”). Chukhrai, in general, what little away from the original story, with the exception of a small but very significant detail: in the original Italian, no, it was not. Cheats had come too Russian – Capital Iharev Stuff, which came from apple province, but at this oblomalsya slightly.
Of the story of Gogol conclusion was simple: “For every cheats find cheats hat.” A conclusion is made in the movie and wide-ranging challenges such as klyukvenno-patriotichnee of a series: “Who are we to Rogues come from Rogues and die.” Chukhrai proposes proud that the Russian player obzhulili Italian cheats – breakwater, it teaches patriotism. Well, I am personally proud of, yes.
Italians, as he wrote in Brain Means Rape, originally was to play Toto Cutugno … To play in the movies? To some Cutugno delighted, but the samples showed that the actor from it – zero, so that even the joy of recognizing the spectators celebrated composer could not hide this fact unpleasant film.
Since then, the role of Fortsy invited Italian Giuliano Di Capua, who was born in Switzerland, studied in Zurich and Egypt, but then moved to Russia, schooling at the St. Petersburg Academy of Arts Theatre and is now playing in a lot of theatre and cinema, is the transfer of the channel ” SRT and performs in St. Petersburg. He, as an Italian in the film, married to a Russian – leading to the canal “SRT”.
Roles Shvohneva and Comforting dostalis two masters (without irony) – Makovetskomu Garmashu and, under his wing and gave Merzlikina. Actually, Makovetsky Garmash and basically a movie and rescued. Why saved? Because apparently failed Russian directors also put Russian classics. Even the “pass” (the very words imputed), the story of Gogol, in Soviet times, were filmed in such a way that they still want to watch and review. Every scene, every episode – all excellent and well-thought in line with the style of the original works.
Chukhrai, some credit to him, style withstand very tried. Even useful for the restoration of appropriate environment galleys, for which film crew went to Suzdal, and anxiety was raised on an entire company decorators. Regional city itself, and built a courtyard and costumes was reached very well – will not lying. But with the style – yet something is something. As if through old periodically lurks something is not pertinent to the time.
And first of all – it is Gypsies. I do not know why no one told Chuhrayu as actually dressed gypsies in Russia those times. And they sang. I like to dance. Because this strange trinity, which he attends, and there vyplyasyvaet, more like a long, or Serb refugees expelled from the group Gipsy Kings for drunkenness and absenteeism participants spare composition. That’s what you want to do with me, but it is not the Gypsies – either by type or by the behavior or the songs and dances.
Construction of some episodes strangely enough has been done – leaving the impression texture and roughness. Also unclear is why put such emphasis on the visual prisluzhivayuschego pub in Aleshku: his camera all the time allocated, it is a very mnogoznachitelno looked at what is happening – except, I think, Aleshka, stervets, will be the main participant conceived machinations. An no, Aleshenka died at the end of the film, as if it did not exist. And on feature, ask?
But even Stanislavsky Nemirovich-Danchenko said: “If you veshaesh in the first act on the wall gun, the gun must necessarily evonnoe demolish principal mainly hero least in the final.” What is translated into Russian means literally that: no need to empty allusions, it is to anything. If the character – a small and insignificant man, and he should look like a small and insignificant man, and not the grass and fiery mnogoznachitelnym look at what is happening as Stirlitz, present at the secret meeting with Mueller.
However, as I said, some roughness and respected as such notable productions smooths actors – and Garmash Makowecki. Both played as if their Charity, and they are – all-expensive look. Makovetsky, the truth is, in my view, something which is slightly (very slightly) pereigryvaet, but it is clear from the desire to fill some gaps movie.
Merzlikin against the backdrop of such brilliant actors looking, of course, noticeably weaker, and did not play as well podygryval, but, first, not irritating, and, secondly, thank you very much, that Merzlikin, and not some terrible Alexei Panin – this is would be complete fallimento dello spettacolo teatrale.
Di Capua not particularly like – something he played well, but the Italian kleilsya there is not much, has been placed entirely artificial, because it looks quite inorodno character. Kyafir it in this play, in short.
But from the very minor characters like Vladimir Salnikov in the role of landlord Glowa, whose whole brothers tried to force the play walls. Like most small role, but as brightly played, and just this episode reminded the old Soviet productions – in quality and level.
Purely kartezhnye entertainment, receptions and Escapade looked quite impressive, but no more. Moreover, the story is, in general, not about the fraudulent reception as such.
As a result, some have been in difficulties before the final withdrawal of the assessment. Actor game – at four, and in the case Makovetskogo and Garmasha – almost five. Production – well, at the top three with a plus. Assessment of scenario will reflect, of course, not the product of Gogol, and the fact that it did.
As a result – something in between a troika with a plus and minus with a quartet. No looked’s still not without pleasure, so quartet with less. Well, plus an additional choice for the source. Let Gogol better place than any “Boy with a shadow – 15″ …
