Haven't seen goncharov (1973) yet? In that case go watch it RIGHT NOW, but if you don't have the time for a 3h 32mins film (which is understandable but you have to make the time at some point) and you want to understand the memes I have you covered. (Keep in mind that there are gonna be important spoilers in this post)
Katya Michailov - Goncharov's wife
Andrey - Goncharov's lover (or almost)
Valery Michailov - Katya's brother
The Boat Scene: a scene in which Katya almost dies.
Beer Bottle Scene: an infamous scene in the movie
Anchovy scene: a scene with heavy homoerotic subtext between Goncharov and Andrey
Dressing for dinner scene: a scene where Katya and Andrey are shown dressing up with cuts that give each of the things they wear the same importance as survival items, from Katya's high heels to Andrey's dagger
Bridge scene: goodbye scene between Katya and Goncharov. Beautifully made as you can see Katya second guessing her choice to betray him but she's too far in to turn back
Fruit stand scene: a heavily homoerotic conversation between Katya and Sofia while they are buying apples
Andrey betrays him too for money
Goncharov has betrayed Katya's family too, and Andrey is a living reminder of that
Goncharov is shot at the end, resulting in his death
Katya fakes her death at one point
Katya's father is killed at the beginning of the movie and she feels responsible for it for almost the entire movie, until she finally accepts that there was nothing more she could have done to save him, only to die alone in the boathouse
Even though Katya loves Goncharov, when she has to choose between him and Sofia, she chooses Sofia
There is a love triangle between Goncharov, Andrey and Katya too
The clock symbolism is just so important in this film it deserved to be here
