SAGITTARIUS For those of you who have been following our recommendations, these two weeks begin with good news on July 12th.

Basically, all you have to do is hold out until the 22nd. This Thursday is the most favorable for you in July.

SCORPIO The New Moon on July 12 encourages Scorpios to try something unknown. In a word, it’s the right time to go on a trip or at least get out to some new club. However, on this very day you need to be especially careful about your own language: Mercury is inclined to play a couple of not-so-kind jokes on you. So try to avoid conversations on sensitive topics, and if you can’t, it’s better to keep quiet and let the other person speak out.

Tom Shadyac, USA, 1998 Starring Robin Williams, Monica Potter, Denisel London (subtitles) www.patchadams.com Robin Williams and Jim Carrey are two carpet-benders in the Hollywood arena. But if Kerry is a classic “redhead” with a standard set of tricks and reprises, then Williams is a white clown, a clown of “sad image”. And following his public appearance, “Here I come!” Glycerin tears will surely follow in steady streams from the eyes.

A new restaurant serving Ukrainian cuisine is unfairly called Korchaika. Until the seventeenth year, this was the name given to taverns at permanent courts in the western borders of the empire. In the current conditions, you cannot have a full-fledged permanent yard on Petrovka. Visitors to a modern tavern are mostly hungry for home cooking, outwardly wealthy, but internally deeply homeless people. They find real consolation in Taras.

FICTION Goran Paskalević, Yugoslavia, 1998 Panorama of pre-war Belgrade in Paskalević’s film, after which the director began to be called the “Serbian Tarantino”. At first glance, the label seems stupid and superficial. However, there is something in it. Imagine Pulp Fiction filmed in Serbia. This will be a completely different movie.

USA, 1995, starring Don "Dragon" Wilson, Melanie Smith, Nicholas Guest. TV Center Danish parody of James Bond. Red, blue and yellow cars are colorful against the backdrop of well-kept Copenhagen shop windows. Under the cheerful striped umbrellas of a street cafe, a goblin with a carnation in his buttonhole kisses a neat waitress in a miniskirt.

The polar bear Noah drifts across the seas on a floating island in the company of two mammoths and a mute rabbit. Like his biblical namesake, Noah dreams of gathering a pair of each creature and teaching different animals to live in peace and harmony. Heaven will hear his prayers: a ship carrying exotic animals to the zoo is wrecked off the coast of the island.

Moscow Center for the Arts You won’t find flowers here, but leaves are like in a forest. Subtitle: “The Theme of Wood in Russian Art.” That is, simply a landscape, if without the frondier pretentiousness. But such is the policy of the Moscow Arts Center - to laugh at ponderous academic clichés. They can afford it, the exhibition is great.

Bronwyn Hughes, USA, 1999 Starring Sandra Bullock, Ben Affleck, Maura Tierney, Steve Zahn (subtitles) www.asylum.com/movies/forces_of_nature Sandra Bullock's heroine falls on the head - literally - of a prosperous writer (Ben Affleck, "Armageddon"), rushing to his own wedding. It happens on an airplane. As soon as the young lady takes her chair, an albatross falls into the blades. Down and feathers fly from the exhaust pipe, the machine crashes into an advertising board at full speed.

Lukas Moodysson, Sweden, 1998 Starring Alexandra Dahlström, Rebecca Liljeberg, Matthias Rust (subtitles) Before watching the film, the attitude towards the film is wary and hostile. You expect tricks and tricks from him. Everything turns out so beautifully. The title in the original is too seductive, the theme (lesbian schoolgirls) is too fashionable, the budget is too small. And the noise!

“FROM THE PLOW TO THE LASER” The library of a Soviet schoolchild was full of the most wonderful books. Who would dare to say that Leo Tolstoy influenced his development more than Nosov or Dragunsky? But it was not “Deniska’s Stories” or even the adventures of Dunno that instilled sacred awe in the child’s soul.

Zdob Si Zdub live in Moldova and play fashionable heavy music. In the past, after the hit “Hardcore Moldavesc”, they almost became national heroes. In Moscow they usually play in the company of IFK and other socially close groups. “Tabara Noastra” at first evokes strong associations with the early “Voplya Vidoplyasov” - a more than familiar combination of neo-punk and folklore (Zdob Si Zdub use instruments such as tsuruyak, fluer, iorgafon, buzay and drymba).

Aidan gallery Tilda Lovi-Repin. "Sculpture in Visual Representation." A sculptor from France presents photographs of his works. Until September A-3 Mikhail Bessmertny. "Annals of the Fatherland." Until July 12
