NTV General Director verses responded to the claims of the Minister of Culture to the scandalous film about the war
The director general of the NTV channel, Vladimir Kulistikov, answered in a poetic form to the Minister of Culture of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Medinsky, who asked not to show a new film about the Great Patriotic War “I Serve the Soviet Union”. Letter to the Minister published on the website of the channel.
In it, Kulistikov, in caustic form, accused Medina of infringing on freedom of speech in the style of the Stalin era and suggested that he "become the hero of the scandalous special projects of NTV." “Finally I found the time, the place, and most importantly, the form for answering your open letter,” said Kulistikov. The director general admitted that Medinsky’s pathos, “a masterpiece of Yuza Aleshkovsky and a line from the song of that unforgettable era,“ sprang on him ”.
Kulistikov means the song of Yuz Aleshkovsky "Comrade Stalin, you are a great scholar". The poem of the NTV general director consists of five verses.
"Minister Medina, you are a great scientist,
In the cinema, you know a lot about it.
Our zomboyaschik, you denounced
The gray Bryansk wolf is hunted.
It is not known what leg you got up with,
Rather, from the left than with any other.
What fascinates you is Dzhugashvili-Stalin?
Lawrence Palich what you dear?
Minister Medina, you are a strong innovator:
Those on Twitter and post.
And look - Stalin's splinters
From your computer fly.
Do you want, we will cover the program,
All the saga of the cops and the fraternity?
And maybe you want to be a hero
Scandalous special projects NTV?
We have gifts for everyone,
We have something to put in the bill.
When comrade Markin leads us into battle,
Not that Stalin - Batman will not save.
Recall, last week, Minister of Culture Vladimir Medinsky in an open letter proposed to cancel the scheduled display of June 22 painting "Serving the Soviet Union." Medinsky expressed concern that the demonstration of the film, the main action of which takes place during the war in the Soviet prison camp, may be perceived "as an insult to veterans of the Great Patriotic War and our historical memory. "
However, the show did take place last Friday at 19: 30. The same day, NTV showed two more films about the war - the film “The Fall of Berlin”, shot in 1949, and the documentary film by Alexey Pivovarov, “22 June. Fateful decisions”.
According to ITAR-TASS, the scandalous film “I Serve the Soviet Union” was not shown on the territory of Belarus, although it was previously planned.
The film "I Serve the Soviet Union" was filmed by director Alexander Ustyugov in the plot of Leonid Menaker's Lunch with the Devil. The film tells about the actions of Soviet prisoners and prison camp leaders when confronted with the Germans in June 1941. As noted by RIA "News", the film before the telepremiers became available for viewing on the Internet, and many viewers were outraged by the interpretation of historical events presented in it.
