"FIRST CHANNEL"

"Artificial Intelligence", 0.50

Directed by S. Spielberg. Cast: B. Curtis, D. Lo (USA, 2001)

Not too intelligible, but, in theory, a humanistic film about an android boy discovering the strange and unpleasant world of adults and robots.

"RUSSIA"

"Space as a Premonition", 0.50

Directed by A. Uchitel. Cast: E. Mironov, I. Pegova, E. Tsyganov (Russia, 2005)

At first, this retro from the early 1960s develops as a male, psychological drama of trouble and temptation: a provincial boy’s head is troubled by an anti-Soviet adventurer posing as an astronaut. And everything ends on a jingoistic note.

NTV

"Rob Roy", 1.15

Directed by M. Caton-Jones. Starring: L. Neeson, D. Lange, T. Roth (USA, 1995)

A completely standard adaptation of Walter Scott's novel about proud Scottish warriors, for whom the honor of the clan is more valuable than life.

"CULTURE"

"Beyond Silence", 23.55

Directed by K. Link. Cast: S. Testu, M. Habich (Germany, 1997)

Drama of the daughter of deaf-mute parents. She wants to play the clarinet. But they don’t know what music is, and they want to keep it with them as a sign language interpreter. Five years later, Caroline Link will receive an Oscar for the film “Nowhere in Africa.”

TV-3

"Prompter", 21.30

Directed by G. Pixie. Cast: G. Pixie, F. Diefenthal (France, 2004)

Not a very successful implementation of a brilliant idea to make a film about a prompter. Indeed, who knows what passions are raging in his soul. Who knows his face? And what does he see from his booth, except the actresses’ legs?

"Cube-2. Hypercube", 0.00

Directed by A. Sekula. Cast: D. W. Davis, K. Matchett (USA, 2000)

The next eight “lucky ones” wake up in a stereometric labyrinth where the laws of physics do not apply.

"STAR"

"Road", 20.20

Directed by A. Stolper. Cast: A. Popov, V. Doronin (USSR, 1955)

A rare film from the transition period is no longer a “cult of personality,” but not yet a “thaw.” Therefore, among ordinary Soviet people trying to push stuck cars with urgent cargo through a mountain pass, one saboteur nevertheless found his way.

"Wedding Gift", 3.00

Directed by R. Bykov, R. Esadze. Cast: E. Germanova, A. Rostotsky, R. Bykov (USSR, 1982)

A forgotten but funny vaudeville about a crowd of strange personalities who harass newlyweds who live in someone else's apartment around the clock.
