Zoya, Sasha, Lyubov Timofeevna, forgive us!
Mr. President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin!
Even in your New Year's address, you could not fail to mention the importance of Victory Day. But at the same time, the people you appoint to responsible posts ruled by your appointed ministers continue to distort and rewrite history.
I would like to remind you how recently you so actively spoke out for your amendments to the Constitution, which will help protect our history and so on. This is in words. But in fact we have yet another libel, removed for the state's millions and thousands, collected from the people.
Zoya and Alexander Kosmodemyanskiy with their mother (June 1941). The cheated war heroes that the new Constitution must protect
And I blame this on the hotbed of history scribes, the Vlasovites and the White Guards who have settled down in the so-called "Russian military-historical society" and the Ministry of Culture, which indulges them in everything.
On January 29, I once again killed part of my time to watch the next "film masterpiece". THIS was shown in only three cinemas in my city, so I also had to skate. Not everyone, apparently, decided to get their hands dirty.
In general, everything is classic. It seems that everything, the next bottom is broken, but no. New day and new blows from below.
Yes, after watching "Podolsk Cadets", a film that was not without flaw, but filmed with soul and looked in one breath, IT looked like another nightmare.
A separate conversation about the authors of this "masterpiece". A simple internet search gives an idea of the authors. Maxim Brius and Leonid Plyaskin. The directors filmed, but ... as they say, they were "known in narrow circles" as directors of ... crime series! Moreover, such ... not in the top.
Yes, they also shot the series "Young Guard". Reviews on the resources are just lovely.
“The plot was distorted, the dialogues are ridiculous, insincere, absolutely not touching the soul. There are, of course, terrible episodes, but Fadeev described the events in Krasnodon in such a way that his hair stood on end, and when I read the documentary about the execution of the Young Guard, believe me, it’s terrible what the Nazis did to them there ”.
“In general, I didn’t see anything special in the series, I counted on and secretly hoped for something very strong that would strike no less than the“ Brest Fortress ”, but I got a film that doesn’t even reach a C, I got the feeling that this is some kind of amateur performance, by the way, and the shooting is very mediocre. Theater of the Young Spectator ".
“The book contains pure souls, patriotism, Koshevoy's tenderness to his mother (which is worth his monologue about maternal hands). In the series - Koshevoy is some annoyed teenager, rude to his mother, fawning at the Germans.
Fu, a feeling of disgust and bitterness because some of the series will give the impression that it was so. "

In general, this is otzovik. Then think for yourself.
And so this couple of directors of crime series began to shoot a film about Zoya Kosmodemyanskaya.
But before taking on the film itself, it is worth saying a few words about how they began to create it.
The godfather, that is, the initiator, was Vladimir Medinsky and his RVIO. The company is already somewhere, but that's not all.
The scriptwriters Andrei Nazarov and Andrei Tumarkin, if you look at them, are also the creators of criminal detectives. And initially Elizaveta Trusevich was indicated as the author of the script, but apparently, something went wrong.
And Andrei Nazarov began working on the script, who had already composed “Tanks"And" Sobibor ", about which the discussion on our pages was far from positive.
But Andrei Nazarov is an advisor to the chairman of the RVIO Medinsky ... Indeed, why send money to the side?
Yes, they wanted as much money as 150 million ...
But thank God, they didn't. Medinsky is no longer the Minister of Culture, and therefore for the next libel they decided that half would be enough. The budget was cut.
In general, of course, what is happening on the screens is just a reflection of our reality. And the reality is that they do what they want. What's in life, what's on the screen. And the fact that they decided to save money is nothing, the electorate will not gobble up so much.
And once again we got shit in history. And today the film "Zoya" I can quite put on a par with "Bastards", "Enemies", "Indestructible", "Save Leningrad", "Citadel" and other hats taken by our cinema.
The script is, of course, a masterpiece. But in the numerous jingo-videos glorifying the film, they said how "carefully studying the documents" the authors tried to create the image of Zoya Kosmodemyanskaya. I don’t know where they got these, if I may say so, “documents”, but the fact that the best document, “The Tale of Zoya and Shura,” written by their mother Lyubov Timofeevna Kosmodemyanskaya, they did not even take into their hands. This is an indisputable fact, because I just read this book.
And to me it is very strange, although understandable, the metamorphosis from yesterday's schoolgirl of 18 years into a completely fertile lady of almost 30 years. Well, of course, you need to introduce the topic of relationships into the film, how can you do without them, right? And here 18-year-old Zoya (and then 18 years old is not like now) well, in no way can personify the intentions of the authors of the film. Need sex. It must be shown that even at that time everyone wanted ...
And they show, though "12+".
In general, after watching the film, I really wanted to shout "Release the Kraken!", That is, Evgeny Bazhenov. Which I personally respect, first of all, as a person. This is "Bad Comedian", if anyone does not know. His review would probably have left this gang of criminal tenants without a profit, and preferably out of work for the rest of their days.
However, I will note that in my city "Zoya" is shown in only three cinemas, and in such distant corners that you will just go on purpose. Yes, I was very pleased, on the second day after the premiere, at a show at 17-40 in the hall for 120 seats, there were exactly 6 of us (Six). And finished watching and generally three.
But this is not the whole horror that I would like to tell.
At the end of the film, a kind of "work" sounds. Solemn and rooted in biblical motives.
The credits indicate the author of the music Ilyas Autov and the author of the text Dmitry Donskoy.
Ilyas Autov is the leader of the Kazakh group Motor Roller. But Dmitry Donskoy ... This is a well-known poet to all of us, the general director of Roscosmos, Dmitry Rogozin! So modest, he hid under a pseudonym.
In his spare time from space problems, Dmitry Olegovich wrote the text for the forty-minute work "1941", for which, of course, special thanks to him. We will not say for "successes" in space, there is nothing to be grateful for, but for the cantata - probably, it is necessary.
Why in Russia there were no people willing to write music for such a magnificent work, I will not comment. I didn't understand myself.
Now about the film, if you can call it a film.
Everything starts more or less beautifully and goes on for about five minutes. Black-and-white Komsomol members are dancing, it hints that they even dream of something more ... Despite the policy of the Party and Stalin himself.
And then the war begins. And the rest of the time, until the last monologues, Zoya for some reason does not utter a single intelligible phrase. She's busy. She is running somewhere all the time. Sobbing, emitting groans, generally a host of indistinct sounds. Probably, in theory, they should represent something, carry some meaning ... I did not see. More precisely, I did not hear.
In general, I got the opinion that Zoya was assigned the role of the mentally unstable, as portrayed by the famous liar Andrei Bilzho, who lied about everything about Zoya. Including the fact that he allegedly read her medical history.
In general, 18-year-old Zoya performed by 27-year-old actress Mishina looks ... Yes, that's exactly what it looks like.
Zoya's brother Shura also got his. And how is it worse? He was 17 years old. In the film, he is also played by an actor who is not quite for his age, so a very strange impression is created of how awkward and frankly blunt Sasha tries to get into the army, and everyone just kicks him off. What the authors wanted to show is not clear. But they didn’t read history.
Indeed, at the age of 16, Alexander wanted to go to the front and avenge his sister. Such were they, Komsomol members. But there was nothing like in the film. Alexander was immediately sent to a tank school, and he got to the war only in 1943. But before that, he was not confused about military registration and enlistment offices, but studied military affairs in a real way. Which he confirmed by his actions in battle.
But the film has two lines in the credits. Why make him a hero, right?
Lyubov Timofeevna Kosmodemyanskaya also sobs and groans throughout the film. I did not understand where they got it from, but what is written about this woman does not fit at all what was filmed in the film.
Yes, the Kosmodemyansky were out of luck. And again it is not clear why it was impossible to make a film just by reading The Tale of Zoya and Shura.
However, it is clear.
But how the Germans were licked! Indeed, "ubermenshi", representatives of a different, highly developed civilization! Next to the downtrodden Soviet peasants, they look very impressive. Directly, "their honor" ...
And what else can you expect from the White Guards from the RVIO?
By the way, in the film Zoya for some reason does not appear as Tanya. As it was in life. Do you know why? And because Tatiana Solomakha, a red Cossack woman, a member of the RCP (b) since 1916, was brutally hacked to death in 1918 by precisely those White Guards for whom Medinsky and company shed tears so much.
In general, the miscarriage of the Gorky film studio is replete with Hollywood clichés. Disgusting and stupid.
The "training" of saboteurs is simply one-to-one lapped up with Hollywood films. All the same crawling under the wire, all the same shooting over their heads ... Boring, girls ...
A fascist urinates on the head of Zoya, who is lying in ambush. Probably, they wanted to show the "truth of life". But in principle, nothing, we all have a small need for our heads coped with this film.
You can say "thank you" for not showing the scene of the gang rape of Zoe by a platoon of soldiers. I think this is a little ahead of us. Also in the "Truth of Life" section.
Stalin, personally instructing Zoya to set fire to the huts ...
In general, as always: lies, delirium, stupid and sluggish dialogues, complete impotence. Oohs, sighs and groans, like a soundtrack to fill the pauses. Apparently, they thought so to show the inner tension of the heroes. In fact, it is a nedoporno film on an audio track.
I don't want to continue. The next millions were thrown out on the next lie of the Vlasovites and the White Guards from the RVIO under the command of Medinsky. And what infuriates most of all is that on the next. That films that can be watched without a gag reflex come out in spite of us, not with government money, but at the expense of anyone, but not the Ministry of Culture.
We have already talked and written so much about the degeneration of our cinema. The fact that modern screenwriters are unable to write a more or less intelligible script. The fact that directors, in their attempts to copy Hollywood films, stamp miscarriages from cinema. About the decline of Russian cinema in general and military-patriotic cinema in particular.
About the fact that films, poor in meaning and content, will not stir up anything in the minds and souls, except for contempt and hatred. And nothing will change about voting, or not voting for the next changes in laws up to the Constitution.
In the words of the great Bulgakov, "the mess is not in the closets, but in the heads."
Vladimir Vladimirovich, it's time for you to think. Your people are doing outright chaos, against which YOUR Constitution should work, which YOU so urged us to approve.
And where are the results?
And I urge all reasonable people to ignore this next disgrace.
Indeed, Zoya, Shura, Lyubov Timofeevna, forgive us sinners. I am very ashamed that this is happening in our country.
