There is a sad joke about modern cinema in Russia: every year Soviet films become better and better.
agree , this counts for a majority of modern movies around the world. 95 % of movies are just bad
@@user-qz2sw7pq8y nope
@@champloo385 Yes. Actually, yes. Even modern western movies - became bad (Because WOKE stuff and etc). But it only start to be like that recently, then russian modern cinema/movies - was dead from the start.
The only good are - Tango and Cash (yes, it is russian made - firstly in production, only later - it start to work under USA cast.), "WANTED" movie, Leviathan, "Чучело" ("Ugly Girl" - very sad movie about bullying in Soviet schools) some other films and etc. So in the end - very small dozen of them (Russian modern ones) are really good, then other russians - just made for quick buck, or money laundering (Take russian-state movie donate/grant - and then just make atleast a some kind a movie).

Money kills art. A nation in order to progress needs either a strong god, or tough principles.
@@-the_emperor-1660 Money has been a part of art since money began. And gods or principles just hinder art from developing.
The main reason for the beauty and quality of Soviet cinema is that it was not made for the sake of money. This can say everything. No, seriously, there is nothing more to add.
That is why Soviet cinema is an art, not a business.

0:32 Small correction. In fact, 'mimino' translated from Georgian as 'hawk'. But in the Soviet era bad pro-war western politicians were called 'hawks'. That is why it the film stated that 'mimino' is a 'falcon'. To call someone 'falcon' or 'eagle' in Russian is a compliment for him.
Iirc Hawk also was the codename of the Aeroflot pilot Valiko attended flying school together with
Still the same today. Hawks want war, doves want peace.

Soviet movies were cool, but I think we need to talk about the real treasures, and that's Soviet Cartoons
Cheburashka, Nu Pogodi, etc etc, glad that they were my childhood cartoons in the 00s.
They basically made cheap copies of Tom & Jerry with one episode every few years and entire season... over decades... when West churned out several full series all the time. As a kid, I hated when channels shown Soviet cartoons because they were ugly and had very few episodes repeating over, and over, and over... when only two channels with cartoons on cable were one showing USSR stuff, and other _untranslated_ Cartoon Network, I just decided to learn English instead.

They love the Israel reference there
How instead of calling Telavi in Georgia they called Tel Aviv in Israeland talked to a Georgian who emigrated to Israel
When I went to Georgia in 2019, we passed by Telavi and took a picture next to the sign
That made me cry
in speaking from Tel aviv phone i can understand that it is Georgian Jew, emigrated in Israel, word what hi is pronouncing ,,DAGENACVLE'' 21:01 mostly common word for Georgian Jews, it can not be translated exactly but it means something like : i'd take your bad things in life , your bad on to me .....
I liked that reference too. My fathers family immigrated from Georgia to Israel because of the discrimination of jewish people faced under the Soviet Union. My uncles and my grandmother is still in contact with the friends they have in Georgia and visits them a lot. They tell my Georgians are really friendly and have always been nice to them and never really cared much that they were jewish. I hope one day to visit Georgia and experience there hospitality

as soon as you said Mimino was a pilot I KNEW that this movie is the reason my Soviet grandmother wanted me to be a pilot
This made me tear up kinda
How heartwarming :'D
Not quite. There was sort of a cult of pilots being nearly superheroes in the early SU and it was proceeded on to astronauts. The most famous person like that is Gagarin perhaps (there were also Chkalov and Nesterov and so on daring aviation pioneers before them). A soviet song about pilots says "we're born to make a fairytale come true..." and pilot was an appropriate dream job for a soviet boy.
@@annasolovyeva1013 interesting
@@ImNotRXZL there are way more good films about pilots. "Only"old men" are going into battle" is a good example (being a drama, an entertaining musical, and having a lot of real video materials from the war as parts of the plot). "Old men" doesn't mean anybody's old, it really means pilots who already have some experience. Being an army pilot was extremely risky back then, so those who survived and gained skill were heroic. Being a good musical I mean the songs from it are more widely known then the film itself. Hell, there's an OPERA about Maresyev, and the story it's based on is in the school curriculum. Pilots generally were presented as real-life angels in the SU, and seen as dream boyfriends as well. A brilliant example is the story next: In summer 1945, one of the fighter jet pilots war returning to Russia. He knew all his relatives died and his home was destroyed, so he had basically nowhere to go. Imagine what he does next? He goes to Moscow, arrives there on a weekend morning, puts on his uniform and goes strolling around a big park looking at girls. When he found one he liked, he approached her, asked her name, tall to her and she agreed to date him. They proceeded together, and after a while he told her his situation. She agreed to welcome him into her home. Soon they married actually, and lived together for the rest of his life. Imagine how attractive one should be to pull off something like that confidently? There just was something about the military pilots. I actually happened to meet a veteran pilot, he was very old, but there still was that one aura of a hero and something about his personality.
The most epic thing about Soviet pilots - the idea itself exists out of the Soviet context in one of the most popular franchises. George Lucas has been to the SU and adopted it into Star Wars. If you don't believe - compare how Luke looks by the end of ep IV and Gagarin - they're wearing very similar orange suits and white helmets, and they're similar in faces. And if you go for more - there's more. Maresyev, whom I mentioned before is famous for not giving up flying after he lost both of his legs and got prosthetic legs instead. Learning even to walk on those would be different, and flying a plane seemed impossible. Another hero, Markov, is known to make the comeback after severe burns. Doesn't remind you of anybody?
@@annasolovyeva1013this comment is very illuminating.
So the core message of this movie is that Georgian girls are better than Russian. I can now understand why this has become a timeless classic.

They had more free names because with less money and very little produced you'd have less total titles already used by the end of USSR than in first decade of Hollywood, which also had those simple names... tho most famous Soviet series was the one with nonsense name "17 Moments of Spring" (literally nobody knows what it means) that had russian housewives get wet over a guy in SS uniform (Nazis were considered the hottest in USSR) and another stupid name was... "The Meeting Place Cannot Be Changed", it's cheap crime pulp fiction... then there's "Kin-Dza-Dza".

We must forge our path, and all who refuse to forge it with us, dont deserve to walk it.
to add also dont take for granted who you might meet in your journey in life. The fact that Mimino met Khachikyan (who not only gave him a place to stay in his truck, but also helped him sell his own tires to help Mimino and backed him up in court even though he just met the man and were new freinds and all he wanted was an alligator for his son). And mimino kept his word and bough the alligator. It shows that no matter what people need to be kind and respect each other. Khachikyan did not need to help Mimino but yet he did with wanting nothing in return and Mimino did not have to buy the alligator and yet he still did for his freind. Thats how we should all be with one another
If you yourself ever visit Georgia, you will understand even better why he returned. This is one of the most beautiful countries with a combination of climate, cuisine and life.

Perhaps you should also do a review of the movie "Kin Dza Dza". This film is also by Georgy Danelia. That is, the director who created "Mimino".
I've seen that. Really strange film.
I think there are other Soviet era films that would be easier for a Westerner to understand.
@@alanlight7740 Well, I'll say even more: Danelia has films that are easier for a Westerner to understand. This is especially true of his early works.
@@alanlight7740 why? Kin-Dza-Dza is just a dieslpunk dystopia, anyone who watched Mad Max or played Fallout would feel at home. That and Stalker should be the easiest films to grasp for audience that is exposed to sci-fi, instead of Soviet citizens who weren't allowed to experience art outside of party-designated "Social realism" paradigm with happy peasants singing how they love being worked to the bone for nothing on the land party bonzas stole from them.
@@KasumiRINA - I can only speak for myself, but in Mad Max the motivations of the characters made sense within the context of the society even if the society itself didn't really make sense from a practical point of view. I'm not familiar with Fallout so I have no comment on that.
In Kin-Dza-Dza nothing made sense to me at all. It was more of a disjointed journey through a strange dream where logic and coherence are not required, and aside from the protagonists none of the characters seemed to have any reason for doing what they did. Perhaps it makes sense to people who experienced a communist system firsthand, but for me it's hard to imagine how such an environment could even exist in the real world. It was more _Alice in Wonderland_ than _Mad Max._
@@alanlight7740 Russian language and Russian culture are desirable to understand Kin-Dza-Dza. But most importantly, you should be able to compare life in the USSR and post-Soviet Russia. You will probably be upset - but Kin-Dza-Dza is a cruel satire on capitalism. Russian young people read the comments - they don't understand this film, but when you start talking about the realities of the USSR, they say: "Damn it. we are already living in this Kin-dza-Dza..."
as for Mad Max, this is a stupid action movie for the capitalist philistine and it is not even appropriate to compare it with Kin-Dza-Dza.

as a american I dont really hear much about soviet era movies but this movie is so wholesome, you should do more of these soviet era movies reviews
Because nobody would allow them to be shown in the US. The ignorance of average Americans about what was going on in the USSR was intentionally spread by US authorities and business structures alongside with weird and stupid stereotypes about Soviet people and the Soviet system. BTW it's very annoying when another westerner starts randomly quoting the "Animal Farm", "1984" or "not yours but OURS" jokes any g-ddamn time talking about the USSR. By doing this one shows his/her total ignorance and not knowing anything but cliches forced by Cold War propaganda.
Soviet movies are pretty much all touching and wholesome, it was more or less a cultural standart and mentality. They didn't make movies for the money.

Mimino is one of the best movies ever. Georgi Danelia really went on this nostalgic thing about true happiness, very melancholic movie.
10:44 minutes in and ive already been charmed by how bro-y the movie is. Something about male friendship and the soviet union fits so well together
caucasus about that
?
male friendship in the USSR is something more than friendship in European civilization. This is a much greater mutual penetration, greater participation in each other's lives, mutual assistance, a kind of separate male mental family, especially when there is no real family. But only in this family there was no sex - haha.
@@YAe71 like bromance, i see ?
@@quoccuongtran724 yep, By the way, this MiMiNo movie with English subtitles was released on the « Mosfilm eng » channel a week ago.
I think you misunderstood the scene with the Mimino's dad's war buddies. My understanding was that Mimino's dad was in fact with them in the WWII and they were all three infantryman. They were testing him, and looking if he was lying about being their war buddie's son. You can see it if you watch carefully. When they are saying that his name was Vasily and they were tankists, they are looking at each-other conspiratorially. When they see, that Mimino corrects them on both accounts and is not willing to lie (even being completely broke and needing help), they call him back.
No. Indeed, these people made a mistake and mistook Mimino for the son of their comrade-in-arms. The fact that the boss decided to help Mimino shows that he is an honest official (you will be surprised - but many Soviet officials were such. Liberal and anti-communist media convince you otherwise.) and he decided to help the son of an unknown infantryman. This is a military partnership and the official did not depart from it.
I’m not sure how I ended up following this channel, but I’m infinitely grateful I found it 🤙
For those, who want to understand unofficial meaning of this film for russians, georgians and armenians: this whole movie is a hymn for international respect and solidarity. I'm half-pole, half-russian but in our family when this film is on tv we always watch it. It is one of my grandparents favorite one.

He literally pilots a helicopter... those cost a LOT! And there's tons of racism shown in the film, did you not notice? The russians were always incredibly racist to Caucasians.
@@KasumiRINA Bro you literally missed the entire idea of the movie... congrats
@@KasumiRINA With all due respect, Caucasians and Slavs belong to the same race. And under the Soviet Union, residents of all republics had equal rights. Barbarism based on lack of education, social and ideological (religious) suppression is flourishing in many regions of Asia today. But throughout the existence of the union, this was resolutely fought, introducing these regions to all the achievements of civilization. It was a grandiose international process, in which almost all the peoples of the Union and the social bloc (Africans, Arabs, Cubans, Koreans, Chinese) were involved. International marriages, interpenetration of cultural traditions, exchange of everyday philosophy and mythology. And it is very stupid to accuse "Russians" of "racism", or rather, as we have just found out, of nationalism, chauvinism. Firstly, because a huge proportion of educated Russian-speaking people of Slavic appearance (even in modern Russia) are not Russians. These are Jews, Tatars, Ukrainians, Belarusians, Poles, Volga Germans, etc. Moreover, they were extremely disproportionately represented in the Soviet elite. Secondly, being in the epicenter of the construction of a new society, the Russians were simply ashamed to think so, especially to say so. My family always told me that I was Polish (although this is not quite true), but when it came to Russians, I was strictly forbidden to think badly about them. Because it was the hardest for them in the union, this system was built on their bones, I was instilled with respect for strangers, discipline and a willingness to work on an equal footing with them in the new world. Now it is not difficult to find graphic maps of the distribution of industrial products in the USSR. It indicates which republic produced how much and how much it consumed. I think that familiarity with this material should somewhat correct your ideas about interethnic relations in the first socialist state of the world.

There are amusing parallels between 'Mimino' and 'Borat' (2006). Very similar looking characters go to a more developed place, looking to win a blond crush's heart, while being accompanied by an overweight Armenian. Also, while 'Mimino' is a good hearted and well-meaning comedy, it also created (or at least contributed) to really irritating stereotypes about Caucasians, which are still widespread among general Russian populace. However, it is one of the first Soviet films to at least hint the racism and condescension that Caucasus people got in Russia

@@user-dl2yg6dk7i lol. who made it and who had the main role? It is technically a Georgian movie which depicts Georgia when it was in Soviet Union. It isn't "Russian" that's what I am saying basically.
New Gattsu uploads be hittin different
брооооо я воообще не понимаю почему это у меня в рекомендациях но как же хорош этот фильм. legit soviet classic
R.I.P Buba Kikabidze A.K.A Valikojan
I feel so sorry for the people who can't watch this movie in the original russian voiceover. There's so much play and emotions in actors' intonations. I also feel very sorry for our younger generations who carry a completely different culture and can't feel the same warmth I do watching this movie.
And I don't know what's the perception of this movie among caucasian people, but for me it's a big reminder of the era of friendship of peoples, the end of which I barely caught when I was a kid.
During that time India and the USSR had strong relations, so I can see why Delhi is mentioned in this movie. 🇮🇳🇬🇪🇦🇲❤️
ever since the ecco2k video, you made me get into different music and now no woman wants to be in a 10km radius of me. thank you mr gattsu and i love you
I remember watching this as a kid, even though it was like 10 years after the USSR collapsed lmao. Still a good movie tho tbh

Been watching old soviet movies and comedies for the last few months now and they're amazing. Many have a kind good message in them and are often simply about some friendship, or work, or starting a restaurant and simple things in life.
Therewasno bad messages in Soviet movies. Ever. Soviets tried to raise smart, humble and friendly people.
I can only imagine what kind of dumbsters are raising on modern movies...
Oh, no, no. The USSR was an Evil empire and every Soviet person dreamed of destroying America and democratic and Christian principles... At least this is what Mr. Reagan convinced us, and the son of a bitch Gorbachev agreed with him...
There are not only movies with a kind messeges. There were comlex movies in USSR, such as "Летят журавли". There were a film director Sergei Soloviev who was really inspired by new wave of french cinema and did beautiful films like "100 дней после детства" (100 days after the childhood), "Черная роза эмблема печали, красная роза - эмблема любви" (Black rose is a sign of a sadness, red rose is a sign of a love), "Асса" (Assa - quite untranslatable, this is just a nickname of a main actor, that he created for himself").
And of course there is absurdist movie "Город зеро" (Zero town), my personal favourite.
As Armenian I support that🇦🇲🇬🇪
22:45 rare, unexpected and funi Butkuna & Tamaza cameo which was cut from the original movie
Subbed
butkuna da tamaza kanye collab
as a bulgarian 🇧🇬 old soviet movies are the best
You should do movie reviews like this more often. I'm positive most westerners (including me) have no idea what any of these classic Soviet-era movies are, seems like an untapped market.
Yoooo. I recognized Yevgeny Leonov as soon as he popped up on screen at 17:36. Saw Kin Dza-Dza for the first time a few months ago, and was really impressed by his performance. I'll have to check out more of Daneliya's films, it seems like dude was producing bangers with some consistency.
He's a legend bro. Not only in ex Soviet states but a legend of cinematography. He has no bad movies.
Man, that scene where he dialls a random georgian guy on they airport and they start singing is just too real. It gets me every time
Mimino is not a movie it’s a masterpiece
I recommend to everyone to go watch The Cranes are Flying (1957), Come And See (1985) and The Ascent (1977) if you want to see some good WW2 soviet movies. I prefer them over most of Western war movies.
Soviet movies are good. Some of them are really good. Great contribution to the art of cinema, and they are increasingly precious these days.
R.I.P Mimino. Fly high.
A masterpiece, one day there will be more talented Georgian youtubers like you man, i love your work, cheers!
ვინც ჩვენზე ცუდი რამე თქვას, ყლეზე დისლაიქი მაინც აღარაა
Finaly there was a song with that movie in it i searched years for this
*RIP Vakhtang Kikabidze*
I'm indian these east European names were really weird to me felt like random letter but now as gattsu regular viewer, I'M CHANGED
Whoever said soviet movies are bad? They are top-notch quality, even the comedies.
It gets even funnier when you realise "mimino" means "baby" in Czech.
Mixing one of my favourite movies with modern humour is possibly the best thing to ever exist in my entire life.
Soviet movies are insanely good. I can not express enough how much i love them and how many time i have watched them. They are truly a treasure, an extremely huge yet rare soviet W.
I watched this video this morning, then watched the movie, later in the day. I red in the comments under the movie that earlier this month the actor who played Mimino just died. RIP Mimino, my heart's with you Georgians. Much love from France
Эх действительно душевный фильм, люблю пересматривать пару раз в году,
"""ему будет приятно. Когда ему будет приятно, я буду чувствовать, что мне тоже приятно! А ты говоришь, прямо…
- Меня в Орджоникидзе ждут…
- Знаешь что, я тебе умный вещь скажу, но только ты не обижайся: когда мне будет приятно, я так довезу… что тебе тоже… будет… приятно…""
Спасибо за интересный контент
For an indian who is crazed on Soviet films,this one is a new gem to my collection
Pls post more videos like this
"you don't want me do you" 😭
19:40 that's probably in East Berlin, not Amsterdam since everything on the buildings is in German.
Yeah there also is a building with letters on it that say 'Die grösste Zeitung Berlins' (Berlins biggest newspaper) so that's probably the headquarter of the BZ(Berlin newspaper)
West
Frankfurt
wake up babe, gattsu just posted
16:40 lol that silent cut to two black men kissing was the most stupidly hilarious thing I've ever seen
I watched this movie after you recommended it on stream. Excellent! I hope you keep the movie vids coming! :)
Ivanovich and Ivanovna are not the last names, they are middle name-like patronyms meaning "Ivan's son" and "Ivan's daughter" respectively (not the same Ivan I guess)
I just finished watching this movie, all I gotta say is, what an ending haha! CHITO GRITO CHITO GRITO!
I rewatched this movie a month ago. It`s really great and makes you think about many vital things. In general, it`s still actively quoted. I won`t talk much about the main song. It is still a banger.
And I consider this review one of the best on this channel. Keep up the good work, genatsvale.
I can recommend a few more films for the next videos: "Don`t grieve", "The Blue mountains", "Passport", "Repentance", "Kin-dza-dza". The last one is especially weird, but I think a review can be quite funny like this one.
No one makes better WW2 movies than the Soviets, best of the best. Unfortunately for most other soviet movies they don't have subtitles but I thoroughly enjoyed the Soviet comedy movie called Striped Trip😅absolutely hilarious
top tier content, the new editing is craaaazy
Nice video gattsu, I been watchin you for a few months now and all your videos are very fun to watch. Thanks for the entertainment bro
i'm azerbaijani but i love this film very much, especially armenian actor Frunzik Mkrtchyan
if you don't laugh at the court episode or don't cry at phone call episode - you have no soul
Love how every sign in Amsterdam is in German, very accurate
I think that was Frankfurt, not Amsterdam. Maybe I am wrong.
@@napoleonbonaparte4396 it was DDR aka East Germany
Modern movies have nothing on classic soviet bangers🔥
I heard about this movie growing up in Uzbekistan, but never got to see it. Great narration author, felt like I just saw an entire movie in express format. It was also lovely to see my favourite homeless of all time.
I love all the memes you use in this video. Excellent video. Hello from Alaska :)
Gattsu is in his glow up era
I watched this flick multiple time but only once I visited Sakartvelo I finally came to understanding of it fully. There's no place on earth I want to go back more and more other than Sakartvelo :)
Gattsu, Please Do More Videos Like This! Loved Every Second Of It Bro
great that you made a video about this movie. What i miss in the video is some iconic conversations from the movie between the two main characters - i.e. Frunzik's statement in court (hilarious), quarrel in hotel and in car (also hilarious)
As an half russian half ukranian this is the the one of the best movies I know. Trully a timeless Classic
Mixing was common in the ussr?
@@Henriqueemusicas sure
@@Henriqueemusicas it was one country and everyone roamed freely and sometimes went to other regions (countries) for work or or study. For example, in the border regions of Russia and Ukraine, it is quite difficult to find a person whose all relatives would be only Russian or only Ukrainian. A complete mixing in several generations.
@@helgamelody4980 that's so beautiful, i am descent of eastern european jews so i kinda how it is

Multiculturalism, Western movies: NUHHHHH BADDDDD ROAAAAARGH
Multiculturalism, Eastern movies: WOWWWW BASSSEEDD AND TRAD
I was a huge fan of Georgiy Danelia and really wanted to meet him,while he was alive. He made very smart movies, almost all of them are at least decent
