I suddenly remembered this movie and forgot to scold it after watching it. In fact, it is just a sentence: a man who claimed to have Chekhov, Tolstoy and other bearded people on the bookcase at home actually started the so-called "sacred Russian national culture" tour in the emperor's court? ! ? I do not recall that in any of Lermontov's or Tolstoy's texts there is a detailed exaggeration of the residence of the old emperor. Even "reactionaries" like Toon in the early years and "Reactionaries" like Toon in the later years have never seen them so painstakingly touted the court, the tsar (and those after him) and the sacred "Russian culture" Pass.

It is said that the director is also from the Moscow Film Academy. Then, he must have seen his predecessor's "Andrei Rublev" or even just heard it. However, this is unbelievable. Because isn't the culture of the Russian nation sitting on the wooden beams of the thirteenth-century forest church? Isn't it scattered among the vast expanses of villages along the way to the Siberian penal colonies? Isn't it lying quietly on the Hetao meadows of the Don and Volga rivers? Wasn't it sitting in unattended hunting lodges in the Caucasus and Ural mountains? But no, the director said, in the city; in St. Petersburg; in the court; in the Hermitage.
