Happy one fifty years to the best movie of all time

No, no, NO! You don’t understand! If they were going to make a movie called “Goncharov” it would have to be a modern REBOOT of the 1973 film. Then everyone would have the right to consume the media while simultaneously complaining about how “it isn’t as good as the original” or “I can’t BELIEVE that they left out the iconic part XYZ”. We get to watch the film and preserve the original. Everyone wins.

time was never on our side

“i dream of you every night. but i no longer remember what your face looks like.”

have some katya & sofia (goncharov, 1973) angst, because how could i not

i keep seeing you guys be conflicted about how watching an actual goncharov movie would be super cool but then ppl say “yeah but it would ruin it!”

so here’s a pitch for you

a goncharov II movie. no first one, for obvious reasons. but they make a sequel and everyone who KNOWS will know and everyone who doesn’t will… well, you know. perfect way to continue the joke without completely ruining it and see a movie.

I don't think Goncharov should just be known as a "mafia film." Like, yes that's part of it. But there's so much more to it. You can juxtapose the first scene, with Andrey saying "We are rich with time" to Goncharov and the last scene, with Goncharov dying, where he tells Andrey "Time has been stolen from us." Katya's wineglass never being filled is a symbol for her general emptiness and dissatisfaction with life. Sofia wears makeup around everyone-except when she's alone with Katya. This adds to the homoerotic undertones of Sofia and Katya's interactions. Andrey looks away right before he kills Goncharov, perhaps implying he feels guilty over what he's about to do.
