Nadia, a single woman in her thirties, submits to her school friend Susanna’s tutelage. Susanna, a sociologist, is convinced that she can teach Nadia a scientific method of seduction to help her find a husband. In this sweet comedy, director Gerald Bezhanov cleverly subverts the ‘glow-up’ trope of Hollywood romantic comedies with a tender and incorruptible performance by Irina Muravyova as Nadia.
I loved this movie. So innocent and gentle, and beautifully acted. And funny too. I enjoyed hearing men (of which I am one) described as a “sub group”. I think I’m going to like Klassiki.

A little predictable… but good fun.
A little predictable, and understandably somewhat dated when it comes to gender roles, but has a great deal of charm and almost worth watching for some of the interior and decor shots alone. Good fun.
