Starring Lena Kosyuk, Roma Burlaka, Nina Ruslanova, Oleg Tabakov, Renata Litvinova, Georgy Deliev, Jean Daniel, Yuri Nevgamony and Philip Panov.

After two and a half hours of adventures of two restless little ones in a pre-holiday city, it is quite difficult to treat Christmas Eve the same way, and all Hamlet’s throwings (Muratova has already been sarcastically mentioned more than once) seem like mere trifles compared to the main question of our time: “Are these cucumbers pickled or salted? » “Europe” 1.15, “Pioneer” 19.40, “Roland” 19.10.
