Extraordinary film of such great cinematography. A poignant and harsh intro to the naive bliss meeting the stark realities of communist dream aka straight jacket . A great movie once again from klassiki .

Five stars
...for the acting, the cinematography, the attention to detail, the humanity revealed and unrevealed. Captivating.

Excellent film
I particularly liked the black and white cinematography, and the film's portrayal of Moscow life in 1957 and historical context.
