these guys haven't seen goncharov
My brain wouldn't shut up until I made this.
Not to start discourse but I will be forever mad that every time I go into the Goncharov tag I see people complaining that they watched the movie expecting a soft queer romcom about pure cinnamon rolls and instead they got a complex and violent film about deeply flawed people where everyone dies.
By all means, engage in fandom however you choose. But don’t blame the source material for not being consistent with some random fanon on tumblr. Kinda wild to get mad that the movie about violent, morally dark grey criminals has violence, crime and moral greyness in it. You know? Also, imho given the time this movie was made, the queer coding was daring; this is NOT an example of queerbaiting.
Goncharov coming third in tumblr's top 100 movies of 2023 is so damn funny. Imagine being a film studio exec who spent millions making some of the other 97 movies listed below it only to be beaten by a film that cost exactly zero dollars to make and doesn't exist
Should Katya and Goncharov divorce?
Yes, absolutely
No, their love is forever
No, they're perfect for each other (derogatory)
They should divorce remarry and divorce again that's how divorced they should
I don't know these characters but they look cute together
I don't know these characters but they should divorce
I have zero opinion on their relationship status
Reason:
If they were really in love, she wouldn't have missed.
You know, one aspect of Goncharov I so rarely see discussed is Vera's subplot. Yes, it's only 20 minutes of the film, but it's so deeply tragic.
That was her mother's dress. It was her mother's, and she had to pawn it off to buy a train ticket, and then as soon as she did she regretted everything. Every time we see her she's trying to get that dress back.
And then when she finally does, and she's ready to leave Naples behind and be with her love in the countryside... that gunshot was easily the most chilling in the film, bested only by the red blooming across the dress box before she fell down.
She never even got to wear the dress.
just rewatched Goncharov (1973) and saw something that a friend had pointed out. Every time a character dies, important or not, there is a clock in the background on exactly 12. Sometimes midnight, sometimes midday. Always 12. I love the symbolism sm!!
shout out to when i told my dad about goncharov and he figured out it was fake because i told him "1973 martin scorsese film with robert de niro" and he said that wasn't possible because the godfather came out in 1972 and the godfather part II came out in 1974 and they wouldn't have had time to make a movie in between. a perfectly good jest, foiled by this man's weird and vast knowledge set
