Broke: The fact that Goncharov lights Andrey's cigarette for him, with his own cigarette, with a hint of great affection, in a scene under the rainfall, symbolises his longing for the - entirely fictional - life he believes Andrey might offer him. And the fact that both of their cigarettes go out in a few seconds foreshadows how this destructive desire will ruin them both.

Woke: The cigarettes go out because they're standing in the rain with no umbrellas. It symbolises the fact that they're both really fucking stupid

Goncharov (1973) dir. Martin Scorsese

“The greatest mafia movie (n)ever made.”

[lesbianmarrow]

part of what delights me about the goncharov joke is the inconsistencies. because it’s not an actual movie, different people are imagining different versions of it. some posts claim katya dies, others claim she fakes her death and survives. some ppl say there was real passion between goncharov and katya, others say it was a loveless marriage. the outlines of the film are the same, but the details are different. i like to think that they’re all true. somehow, impossibly, everyone’s posts are accurate, even when they directly contradict each other. goncharov is large, it contains multitudes. 

[cowboygoya]

reading people’s analyses of katya and goncharov’s marriage and arguments over whether or not they’re in love, i feel like people are forgetting how complicated marriage can be. like absolutely katya is in love with sofia and absolutely goncharov is in love with andrey. but people can be in love in more than one way? like spencer tracy and katherine hepburn were both gay but also in love with each other and i feel like that’s how katya and goncharov are. they truly love each other! that’s what makes their heartbreak so much more painful! they love each other like husband and wife but not like lovers. idk man.

Goncharov

- Does it ever feel like a cage to you?

- What?

- This city. This life.

Katya Goncharova

Forgive me, my darling, but I'm not sorry.

Sofia

- I miss it, Katya. I miss home. I miss reading Pushkin with you. We've never done it but I miss it.

Andrei

- You can tell God I'll be late for my appointment.

Death scene this, cigarette scene that, the ACTUAL best scene in the movie is where Goncharov and Katya are sitting in the park and watching children play and for a moment they look at each other because they want that, they BOTH want that but they know they can’t have it exactly the way they want. Not with each other.

[oliverryanart]

that way/not that way 

[cowboygoya]

wait it just occurred to me that goncharov probably never found out that katya killed ice pick joe to protect him. he died without knowing anything about that night in the boat oh my god. and andrey definitely just assumed that he knew in the chapel, that adds another layer to everything he says about katya. oh my god.

Me and "The Fonz" at premiere of Goncharov (1973) at Grauman's Chinese Theatre.

[powerbottombrucespringsteen]

When Katya said “Of course we’re in love. That’s why i tried to shoot you.” And Goncharov said “If we really were in love you wouldn’t have missed.” 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

[nicollekidman]

when you realize those are the last words they speak to each other

[sword-of-stardust]

This, and then when Andrey kills Goncharov at the end… Andrey didn’t miss.
