00:00:03
Soviet cinema What to drink it
00:00:06
just didn’t pick it up, it’s the best and the
00:00:08
kindest And in general the very best And if
00:00:11
you look at Modern
00:00:13
Russian cinema today it’s
00:00:15
better not to look now there is an opinion
00:00:18
that it was such because of competent
00:00:21
censorship that swept aside all the best
00:00:23
bad and was left only by
00:00:26
Diamond censorship it was good a
00:00:31
wonderful time when everyone was in Freedom
00:00:33
Why why
00:00:37
in which they looked like that and decided
00:00:40
that this movie could be released or not
00:00:42
From now on Let’s take a closer look at it
00:00:45
And who were these people from the regional committees
00:00:48
according to what principles, they removed something from
00:00:50
the picture, forced it to be rewritten, or
00:00:52
even put the film on the shelf. Let's
00:00:55
figure out exactly how
00:00:57
censorship worked in cinema. I propose to take a pack of
00:00:59
well-known and not so Soviet films,
00:01:01
go behind the scenes and what they should
00:01:04
have been like initially, how they fought for their
00:01:06
masterpieces Many famous directors
00:01:08
will also talk about which films were
00:01:10
saved or, on the contrary, rejected by
00:01:13
Soviet driving personally, whether licensorship helped
00:01:15
Soviet cinema or was it the other way around,
00:01:17
you know, in light of all the recent events and
00:01:20
news, I wanted to exhale a little and
00:01:23
make a video on an abstract topic,
00:01:24
so today we’ll talk about censorship
00:01:27
from censorship in cinema and how it worked
00:01:30
Hello Russian
00:01:36
[music]
00:01:43
this is the city of Inta it is located far in the
00:01:46
north of Russia there were once Mines here
00:01:48
but now Inta is known for another
00:01:51
reason here you can buy the cheapest
00:01:53
apartment in Russia my friends from the channel
00:01:56
collective decided to try it for themselves
00:01:58
and they made a film about it Here is its teaser
00:02:01
[music]
00:02:03
I went to Avito in search of an apartment,
00:02:05
put a filter all over Russia and
00:02:08
sorted from the cheapest ended up in the
00:02:10
Komi Republic in the small town of Inta There are
00:02:13
many apartments here from 30 thousand rubles
00:02:16
not for rent But for sale You can even
00:02:20
for free
00:02:21
I live in Moscow where, according to statistics, the
00:02:24
average salary is around 100 thousand
00:02:26
rubles. That is, you can buy
00:02:28
several apartments at once on the internet. I went to
00:02:31
this wonderful city where people don’t know mortgages
00:02:34
to find the answer to the question: Will I be able
00:02:37
to arrange my life in the North in one
00:02:40
Moscow salary,
00:02:43
the film turned out to be funny and interesting,
00:02:45
I attach a link in the description to my
00:02:48
sincere recommendations to watch it.
00:02:49
If for some reason you have not yet
00:02:52
seen what the team is filming, go and
00:02:55
watch there many more interesting
00:02:57
videos on different topics and To be honest, I myself
00:03:01
watch it very regularly cool guys are
00:03:03
very cool, say
00:03:05
hello from the Russian post in the comments,
00:03:12
they need to be shot immediately You
00:03:15
can shoot Vladimir Ilyich in a
00:03:17
kinder way You are the most humane person to
00:03:27
immediately give the court miracles of humanism
00:03:31
and a little editing
00:03:39
in the mass consciousness Soviet cinema
00:03:42
is remembered mainly for pictures of the era of
00:03:44
stagnation, these are the comedies of Gaidai and Ryazanova
00:03:47
Sherlock Holmes Maslennikov's original
00:03:50
films by Tarkovsky and so on,
00:03:52
all sorts of censorship battles also took place with their works.
00:03:54
But Soviet cinema
00:03:56
does not end with them, we will go through the
00:03:58
chronology first and before the collapse of the Union,
00:04:00
because at different times censorship took on
00:04:03
different forms, but before moving on to
00:04:05
many specific examples and stories,
00:04:07
let's first take a look at the origins of
00:04:10
how the censorship apparatus became overgrown with its own
00:04:12
blood and flesh, so we will understand How
00:04:14
this system developed and why it was needed
00:04:16
Despite the fact that cinema in the 20s was
00:04:19
still developing and was of little interest to the
00:04:21
general public, the Bolsheviks noticed
00:04:24
it as one of the most promising
00:04:25
tools for future politics and we must pay tribute to it; they did not
00:04:28
fail, like
00:04:31
paintings, books and poems, this art
00:04:33
should have been under the control of a large and
00:04:36
wise party; the propaganda power of cinema was
00:04:38
well understood by Lenin when he called it
00:04:41
the most important of the Arts and Lunacharsky
00:04:43
further The main task cinema in its
00:04:45
scientific and artistic branches
00:04:47
lies in the propaganda of cinema; this is the
00:04:50
most powerful weapon of scientific
00:04:51
propaganda and the strongest, acting
00:04:53
directly on the imagination and sense of agitation,
00:04:56
the proletariat must necessarily master
00:04:58
this weapon; cinema literally became a
00:05:01
continuation of state policy.
00:05:02
It had to disseminate
00:05:04
ideologically correct ideas and, of
00:05:07
course, not allow sedition But in addition to
00:05:09
politics, there was also aesthetics, morality, this is an
00:05:12
eternal conversation about what qualities the
00:05:14
heroes of the screen could have and what are
00:05:17
completely unacceptable in this place
00:05:19
censorship and Propaganda were intertwined because
00:05:21
one always cleared the other But we must not
00:05:24
forget that behind all these majestic
00:05:26
words there were people They are poster heroes
00:05:29
and Despite all the talk about their
00:05:30
own professionalism, they
00:05:32
could also cut something out or take away something here
00:05:35
simply because of taste, we will see
00:05:37
later, the people who were supposed to check
00:05:39
this or that film were part of a special
00:05:42
body in the artistic council. This was a
00:05:44
group of people consisting of one on the other hand,
00:05:46
from members of the Union of Cinematographers and, on
00:05:49
the other hand, from sports officials in order to
00:05:51
evaluate the film both artistically and
00:05:53
ideologically
00:05:55
[music]
00:06:09
Thank you all,
00:06:16
in 1922 a chief leader appeared who
00:06:20
controlled all printed materials,
00:06:22
painting exhibitions, and then a year later,
00:06:25
under the leadership of the main leader, the chief pitman was born,
00:06:27
who was responsible for the circus theaters and
00:06:30
of course cinema, all these authorities
00:06:32
will be changed more than once,
00:06:33
renamed until the very end of
00:06:35
Soviet history, only
00:06:37
their main meaning will be control over art
00:06:40
since 1922, no more films
00:06:43
could be shown without the approval of the
00:06:45
state, as one
00:06:47
famous and important man once said Of course, censorship is
00:06:50
needed, there should be no films that are
00:06:51
contour-revolutionary and immoral.
00:06:54
Well, now let’s take a look at how
00:06:56
this formula worked using real-life examples.
00:07:02
In the 20s, young Soviet cinema
00:07:06
was in the field of experiments in search of
00:07:08
new creative techniques; it was the
00:07:11
Avant-Garde Age, which discovered such authors
00:07:13
as Eisenstein and which greatly influenced
00:07:16
even world cinema. But then censorship was
00:07:19
just being formed. But already in the
00:07:21
30s, films began to be censored. Much more
00:07:23
diligently at this time, the artist was more
00:07:25
like an employee who
00:07:27
had to create a movie stylistically, in form and in
00:07:30
meaning. a certain
00:07:32
format And who was the employer of
00:07:36
the victories of today Who opened up
00:07:39
all the opportunities for us You know
00:07:42
who I’m thinking about Comrades Stalin I would like to
00:07:45
dedicate a separate part to the story
00:07:47
because all the censorship of the 30s and right up to his
00:07:50
death took place under the watchful gaze of
00:07:52
the leader in 1939 two films were released,
00:07:55
dialogues: Lenin in October and Lenin in
00:07:58
1918, both films were historically
00:08:02
propaganda, they told the
00:08:03
story of the position of the Soviet
00:08:05
state, these are significant events of
00:08:08
the Revolution, the Storm of the Winter Palace, a shot
00:08:10
from the Aurora, the preparation of the Uprising, but at the
00:08:13
same time they tell about the insidious machinations of
00:08:15
Zinoviev and Kamenev, who in in the end
00:08:17
they lost in the leader’s internal party struggle.
00:08:22
What meanness, then both films received the
00:08:25
Stalin Prize, which is not
00:08:27
surprising, because Stalin’s role in the film, which
00:08:29
means in history, was shown to be incredibly
00:08:31
significant and positive. But then on the 53rd,
00:08:34
Stalin himself dies
00:08:41
and after his death Khrushchev comes and
00:08:44
speaks Guys, we had a cult of personality, the
00:08:47
power of a person was intoxicating and he went a little
00:08:50
crazy. Let's debunk the cult of personality
00:08:53
and in 1956 the films were
00:08:55
remade and released in a new
00:08:58
edition, a kind of post-censorship, this technique
00:09:00
in the future will be used more than once in the
00:09:03
new edition, the role of the leader of nations was
00:09:05
already other not so significant scenes with him
00:09:08
were re-voiced or completely cut out
00:09:11
so comrade Stalin, move over here
00:09:13
Sorry, you missed it and now you are
00:09:18
a lamp comrade Stalin o Every time, like the
00:09:22
first time, men standing up in cinemas are
00:09:24
simply unbearable
00:09:27
Hey, historical truth is such a
00:09:29
fickle thing and it fluctuates along with along the
00:09:32
Parsi line, what was politically
00:09:34
correct yesterday may already become
00:09:36
ideologically harmful tomorrow, but let’s rewind a little back to the
00:09:40
time when Stalin himself was still alive and
00:09:42
occupied the chair of the country’s chief censor.
00:09:44
Stalin loved cinema very much and, moreover, he
00:09:47
built his own cinema hall in the
00:09:49
Kremlin; he watched Soviet and Western
00:09:51
films even Charlie Chaplin He
00:09:53
liked almost everything, except for the
00:09:55
film The Great Dictators, for some reason
00:09:57
the main producer of the country of Soviets did not come to him, the main producer of the country of the Soviets
00:10:00
not only censored the films himself, but also
00:10:02
ordered them, so
00:10:04
Eisenstein’s film was born Ivan the Terrible Stalin himself
00:10:07
proposed the idea and personally approved the
00:10:09
script, they planned to split the film
00:10:11
in three parts of the first part, Ivan the Terrible
00:10:13
is shown as a cruel but fair
00:10:16
ruler of the film, Stalin likes it, the
00:10:19
second part exposes the problems of despotism, the
00:10:21
horrors of execution, the retention of power, this part is for
00:10:25
some reason Stalin does
00:10:27
not like it at all, he says in
00:10:28
a conversation from Einstein that Ivan the Terrible is
00:10:30
some kind of film soft-bodied and the oprichnina
00:10:33
looks like a gang of degenerates, although in
00:10:36
fact, according to Stalin, this is a
00:10:38
progressive army in the perception of the leader of
00:10:41
the peoples, the tsar was a good ruler and
00:10:43
did the right things. But
00:10:45
Eisenstein’s perception is not quite But since
00:10:47
Stalin himself began to decide
00:10:49
the fate of the films, the films were eventually withdrawn from
00:10:52
distribution, and the first and the second part
00:10:54
Although in the end the second part was preserved and
00:10:56
released, many years later there was a
00:10:59
similar situation with the film Big Life,
00:11:01
also two parts, the first of which
00:11:03
receives recognition of praise from the Stalin
00:11:06
Prize and the second Lyulya from the leader, the plot of the
00:11:10
second part is at the end of the Great
00:11:12
Patriotic War, the miners return from
00:11:14
the front in order to restore the mine
00:11:16
in the Donbass, which was destroyed by the Germans, but
00:11:18
it turns out that the mine was
00:11:21
mined by the Germans; its explosion was ultimately
00:11:23
prevented, but it was decided to
00:11:25
abandon the mine because it turned out to be in too
00:11:28
poor a state. However, the valiant
00:11:31
miners decide to stay and still
00:11:33
restore it nevertheless less than the Central Committee of the Party and
00:11:36
Comrade Stalin personally. Much
00:11:38
did not like about this picture; a
00:11:40
devastating resolution was issued by the Central Committee; the
00:11:42
leader of the people himself did not like the
00:11:45
cultural level of the Miners in the film, for example, the fact
00:11:47
that in the film they drink, sing
00:11:49
tavern songs and talk about their personal
00:11:52
lives. Moreover, it takes
00:11:53
more time than think about the importance of fulfilling one’s
00:11:56
duty
00:12:04
or that the restoration of industry in
00:12:08
the film was portrayed not as large-scale
00:12:10
events organized by the party, but as the
00:12:13
personal initiative of the miners. Surprisingly, for
00:12:15
some reason this was also considered a minus;
00:12:18
censorship in Stalin’s time diligently
00:12:21
replaced real people with role models
00:12:23
for images of the correct Soviet
00:12:25
they tried to show the ideal person on the screen
00:12:27
and not real ordinary people with their
00:12:30
set of vices and experiences because
00:12:32
of course the miners in reality drank and
00:12:36
sang tavern songs and probably even
00:12:38
swore in the yard in general, it’s like the
00:12:41
Great Patriotic War is going on
00:12:50
again, the gramophone remembered and about a large
00:12:54
number talking about personal life,
00:12:56
damn it Yes, even in bed he talks about the Mines with a
00:13:04
steel spare I need me with you,
00:13:07
what am I talking about, I’m talking about life,
00:13:09
ammonia Well, movies then required an
00:13:12
ideological picture, which of course
00:13:14
deprived them of a certain liveliness. Similar
00:13:16
stories happened with many other
00:13:18
films of that period. they rejected it
00:13:20
and put it on the shelf and released it
00:13:23
only after the death of the leader in 1958.
00:13:27
By the way, someone, for a reason unknown to me,
00:13:30
decided to insert
00:13:33
Stalin’s speech about this
00:13:36
film as a review, bro, I don’t know who you are, I don’t know
00:13:40
why, but
00:13:43
I know it all now not only I don’t
00:13:49
need to thank you for this information, but the most irony happened in
00:13:53
1963 when the director of the film was asked
00:13:56
to remake his creation a little, well, you
00:13:59
remember, the cult of personality is still
00:14:01
being debunked in our country. As a result,
00:14:03
all the frames where the
00:14:05
Great Leader was mentioned were cut out of the film and also everyone disappeared scenes
00:14:08
where he was shown, for example, in the form of
00:14:10
portraits on the wall This is how the
00:14:12
censorship madness turned out
00:14:18
[music]
00:14:20
and now Generalissimo Stalin wants to
00:14:24
see how you will be a hat
00:14:27
[music]
00:14:29
by the way, the Bolsheviks wanted to at one
00:14:33
point replace income from alcohol with
00:14:35
income from cinema harmful to
00:14:37
beneficial However, in the end they did
00:14:39
not give up alcohol, you can watch the
00:14:41
previous video here Yes, and Stalin’s strictness
00:14:44
regarding films at the end of his
00:14:45
reign led the industry to a
00:14:47
stage that would later be called
00:14:49
small films, only masterpieces were required
00:14:51
And therefore Soviet production
00:14:54
produced 7-8 films per year, which were
00:14:57
personally reviewed by the leader, and
00:15:00
only those that Stalin liked were considered masterpieces.
00:15:02
How can you replace the bottle?
00:15:07
Can I kiss you, comrade, for
00:15:11
everything you have done for our people
00:15:15
[music]
00:15:23
I think that it would be possible to begin a
00:15:25
gradual curtailment of vodka leading to
00:15:28
business instead of vodka, such sources of income
00:15:30
as radio and cinema Well, what can I
00:15:32
say, the turkey also thought and then he was
00:15:36
shot, censorship and the approach to cinema
00:15:38
subsequently changed, but only with the
00:15:41
death of the main producer himself in 1953
00:15:46
[music]
00:15:49
when Joseph Stalin handed over his park ticket
00:15:52
and control over film production went into another world, the
00:15:57
International
00:15:58
Film Festival began to take place in Moscow again, and our films again began to
00:16:01
receive prestigious awards in Venice, and
00:16:03
new genres began to appear on the screen,
00:16:05
for example, comedies, morals softened a little, and
00:16:08
also during the
00:16:11
Khrushchev Thaw, the places of collective farmers,
00:16:13
workers from posters, Soviet viewers could
00:16:15
observe automatic images of
00:16:17
nuclear physicists Yes, and ordinary people
00:16:20
began to devote much more time to their feelings and experiences on the screen,
00:16:22
less
00:16:24
ideological speeches delivered. You can
00:16:27
turn off the lights in the auditorium, it’s
00:16:30
easy, comrades,
00:16:37
more than human words
00:16:40
[music]
00:16:42
I understand you, there is such a
00:16:45
philosophy to be happy all your life You’re not a
00:16:47
Bastard, that there are people even worse than you,
00:16:55
morals have changed, but
00:16:58
the formula hasn’t changed, it’s just that at different times
00:17:00
different things fell under this definition, and the fact
00:17:02
that yesterday the uncle’s outcome of the council
00:17:04
was rejected tomorrow was already a completely
00:17:06
natural phenomenon, so for
00:17:08
example, the Ballad of a Soldier could appear on the screen
00:17:10
where the completed the war is shown not
00:17:13
from the perspective of a poster doll from the perspective of a man with
00:17:16
weaknesses and fears going into battle, not
00:17:18
always at the call of the commander in chief, but
00:17:21
because he just wants to live.
00:17:34
And that is why the picture The Cranes Are Flying was able to appear on the screen,
00:17:37
where
00:17:40
within the military setting the emphasis is on the
00:17:42
story of two lovers separated by
00:17:44
war. those same experiences about personal
00:17:47
life in the midst of a global catastrophe
00:17:49
that the Donbass miners could not afford
00:17:51
in the film Big Life,
00:17:58
you yourself are the agenda. Why did
00:18:05
n’t I go to my house? These are the films about
00:18:10
the war that we remember and they are the ones that
00:18:13
would never pass the test the main
00:18:14
producer of the previous era Yes Nora You
00:18:17
have changed and you could film about
00:18:20
more things, but
00:18:22
the formula has not changed, let’s take the symbol of the
00:18:24
Thaw cinema called I am 20
00:18:27
years old, or as in the original, Ilyich’s outpost
00:18:30
Khrushchev was less interested in art than all the other leaders,
00:18:32
but this
00:18:34
picture suddenly came under sharp
00:18:37
criticism even the most positive of the
00:18:39
characters in the film Three Working Guys
00:18:42
are not the personification of our
00:18:44
wonderful youth, they are shown So they do
00:18:46
n’t know how to live and what to
00:18:48
strive for, and this is in our time of
00:18:50
extensive construction of communism
00:18:53
illuminated by the ideas of the program of
00:18:55
the Communist Party You know, I
00:18:58
once thought and I realized that I am a completely
00:19:00
correct person
00:19:05
I take part in public life
00:19:07
I am a meditator like a simple Soviet
00:19:09
person Well okay simple where are they simple
00:19:12
you are simple I am multifaceted but the very
00:19:14
image of restless youth like
00:19:17
drinking miners is inconvenient correct The
00:19:19
Soviet person does not suffer from crises and the search for the
00:19:22
meaning of life he has a
00:19:25
program of the Communist Party
00:19:27
leading to a bright, great future. But
00:19:31
what he said about the ending in
00:19:34
the original was something like that you have to
00:19:39
live
00:19:42
and how
00:19:44
how How
00:19:47
old are you
00:19:49
23 And I’m 21
00:19:53
Well, how can I advise these
00:19:57
However, the ending had to be redone
00:20:00
because as Khrushchev said and you want
00:20:03
us to believe in the veracity of such an
00:20:05
episode, no one will believe everyone knows that
00:20:08
even animals do not abandon their young,
00:20:10
if a puppy is taken from a dog and thrown into the
00:20:13
water, she will immediately rush to save him,
00:20:16
risking her life. Can you imagine
00:20:18
that the father would not answer to his son’s question and
00:20:20
didn’t help him with advice on how to find the
00:20:22
right path in life Marlene Khutsif,
00:20:25
who filmed the Ilyich outpost, was perhaps
00:20:27
one of the most important directors of
00:20:29
the Thaw, but he had to suffer from
00:20:32
bureaucratic rights, there were a lot of amendments in the film,
00:20:34
I’m already tired of proving something,
00:20:37
reshooting it, because I I didn’t make a patch, I
00:20:40
re-shot entire scenes, but still
00:20:43
now I was some kind of creative
00:20:45
freedom, especially compared to
00:20:47
the past, but then this window will slam shut,
00:20:50
there will be more nit-picking and shelf
00:20:53
banned films, too,
00:21:00
during the time of Brezhnev’s stagnation, young and
00:21:03
naive heroes began to be replaced by ordinary
00:21:05
tired people of about 40 whose lives are not
00:21:08
organized, entangled in everyday squabbles and
00:21:11
work routine, the heroes have become
00:21:12
psychologically more voluminous during this time of
00:21:15
stagnation of the Soviet system. However, it was
00:21:17
during this period that films began to appear that became
00:21:19
entrenched in the
00:21:22
popular consciousness as the face of Soviet
00:21:24
cinema. I propose to see what thorns they
00:21:26
had to go through to get to screen
00:21:28
So, Gaidai's Captive of the Caucasus, more than 40
00:21:32
edits, the censors almost solved it. The
00:21:35
people's favorite picture might not
00:21:37
have seen the light of day, but the truth did,
00:21:40
by pure chance, the chairman of the
00:21:42
cinematography committee, Romanov, called
00:21:45
the film outrageous, anti-Soviet,
00:21:47
let's see what he didn't like there,
00:21:49
for example, the famous phrase about the trial
00:21:56
should have sounded like Long live the
00:21:59
Soviet court, the most humane court in the world,
00:22:02
clap-clap-stop, it seems like a purely
00:22:04
stylistic change. Although
00:22:07
they wanted to throw out that scene with the censor’s court completely
00:22:09
because they thought that it was done poorly
00:22:11
and in general it was unnecessary for the plot, or
00:22:14
they wanted to remove it entirely a song about the Sultan
00:22:16
because they considered it propaganda about a
00:22:18
moral way of life.
00:22:30
As a result, it lost only a few
00:22:33
verses
00:22:45
[music] there
00:22:47
were also complaints about the name comrades
00:22:50
Sakhava. There’s a whole story here. Initially
00:22:52
his name was Okhov, but it turned out that this was a
00:22:55
surname First with the Chairman of the Council
00:22:58
of Ministers of the Kabardino-Balkarian USSR
00:23:00
aslanbi ahokhova why was this considered a
00:23:03
problem don’t ask then the last name
00:23:06
was replaced with Sakhava but you won’t believe it an
00:23:09
employee
00:23:11
with the same last name worked in the Ministry of Culture to end the
00:23:14
search for a politically correct last name Nikolin
00:23:16
went to the head of the Ministry of Culture
00:23:18
Fortseva who demanded to stop
00:23:21
Choosing options What if they called him
00:23:23
Ivanov we have 180 of his new ones in the Ministry of Culture and
00:23:26
that now the fool cannot be called
00:23:28
Ivanov, leave it as is, the story about
00:23:31
these changes in the film itself
00:23:33
was preserved only as a re-taped
00:23:35
inscription on the door at the 17th minute of the film,
00:23:38
perhaps someone just
00:23:40
didn’t like Gaidai, otherwise it’s difficult to
00:23:41
explain somehow According to the recollections of the
00:23:43
participants, during the acceptance of the film in the
00:23:45
state cinema, an atmosphere was created that did not
00:23:47
promise anything good, and a certain
00:23:50
big boss told the creators of the
00:23:52
film that this anti-Soviet film would be released
00:23:55
only through a corpse, I wonder where
00:23:57
his body is now, three days later, Gaidai,
00:24:00
contrary to gloomy expectations, received the
00:24:02
final verdict, the picture was accepted and
00:24:05
even received the highest rental
00:24:07
category. And there is a reason for this change
00:24:10
and its name is Leonid Ilyich Brezhnev,
00:24:15
it turned out that over the weekend the Secretary General
00:24:17
asked to Show him something
00:24:19
new, they brought him a Captive of the Caucasus
00:24:21
and he really liked it. He
00:24:24
thanked the head of the State Cinema and everyone
00:24:26
who worked on the film Eh There
00:24:29
were so many conversations: the man came and said
00:24:32
it was fine, but what if he hadn’t come? The
00:24:38
funniest thing is that this was not the
00:24:41
only case when Brezhnev saved
00:24:43
some film Another masterpiece of
00:24:44
Soviet cinema White Sun of the Desert
00:24:46
Censor and tormented with endless edits And the
00:24:49
director of Mosfilm Vladimir Surin In
00:24:51
the end he was dissatisfied picture and didn’t
00:24:53
sign the acceptance certificate, and
00:24:56
Leonid Ilyich appears out of nowhere and
00:24:58
says, come on guys, it’s been a long time since he
00:25:01
looked at the wreath at his dacha.
00:25:04
Moreover, he heard that such a
00:25:06
film was made And was indignant why he hadn’t seen it yet they
00:25:09
sent him the picture, he was
00:25:11
incredibly pleased and this removed the
00:25:13
remaining complaints from the film the picture was released in
00:25:16
wide release and received national
00:25:18
recognition complex bureaucratic
00:25:20
sensory system Versus Leonidovich
00:25:24
stupidly Leonid Ilyich perhaps without him we
00:25:27
would not have seen these films a difficult
00:25:30
fate already three decades later
00:25:32
another film about Ivan the Terrible Ivan
00:25:35
Vasilyevich changes his profession
00:25:37
so pipe skins most of all it was
00:25:39
a shame for the Tsar I will not allow you to mock
00:25:42
Ivan the Terrible why are you making him look like a fool
00:25:44
this casts a shadow on the Tsar yes
00:25:47
yes as if the communists and as if protecting the
00:25:50
Tsar but as if he is the prototype of Stalin,
00:25:53
tough but fair. In the end, for example, they cut out
00:25:56
the scene where Ivan the Terrible fries
00:25:59
cutlets, the same editor-in-chief of
00:26:01
the State Cinema for a long time convinced the artistic council that because of
00:26:04
this scene it was necessary to at least refuse to distribute the
00:26:06
films, but Gaidai managed
00:26:08
to persuade the rest, or this is the scene where
00:26:11
the Tsar is asked where you live
00:26:14
in wards He had to answer Moscow
00:26:18
Kremlin Well, it seems like such a slight joke,
00:26:21
but I didn’t like it, it’s a dream for
00:26:24
a minute Why this banquet, who will
00:26:27
pay for this, in any case, not us
00:26:29
and in this place The answer should have been
00:26:32
a little different
00:26:35
people, father People, well, it’s also clear
00:26:38
It’s a pity It didn’t work. It seems to me that it’s a scheme
00:26:42
for the ages. Sometimes, to save the film in the
00:26:44
original video, you had to come
00:26:45
up with some pretty clever and daring
00:26:48
tricks, like Gaidai. He inserted a
00:26:50
nuclear explosion into the end of the diamond hand, which you don’t
00:26:53
remember, but thanks to this you remember
00:26:56
everything else, the bet was made on the fact
00:26:59
that it an outrageous misunderstanding
00:27:01
will distract attention from all other
00:27:03
things and the sensors will calm down if they remove
00:27:06
this particular part, the bet played Gaidai
00:27:09
told his wife that when
00:27:10
the chairman of the council saw this, he almost
00:27:13
fell out of his chair so pale it was
00:27:16
necessary to see Gaidai argued with the council for more than an hour,
00:27:19
refusing to cut out the nuclear
00:27:21
explosion anything any scene but not this one,
00:27:24
have you forgotten that the international
00:27:26
situation has worsened the world is breathing war,
00:27:29
imperialism is swinging a nuclear club
00:27:32
Gaidai said that he would cut out any
00:27:34
other scene but no, in the end he still
00:27:37
grudgingly agreed to cut it out
00:27:41
director Savva Kulish said about this
00:27:43
case is what I think, that this was
00:27:45
the only picture by Gaidai that was almost not
00:27:47
affected by sensory supervision,
00:27:49
the genius of Leonid and Ovič was
00:27:52
that he specially pasted in the final scene of an
00:27:54
atomic explosion, which plunged
00:27:56
the authorities into such horrors of amazement that
00:27:59
they forgot about everything else, what
00:28:01
worked remains just clap
00:28:04
Gaidai saved a large number of scenes with this
00:28:06
trick similar battles went through a whole pack of
00:28:09
Soviet classics Andrei Rublev
00:28:11
Tarkovsky was rejected because the
00:28:13
religious theme was written within the framework of
00:28:15
socialist realism the film was cut criticized and
00:28:18
eventually put on the shelf only 4
00:28:21
years later it was released in limited
00:28:23
release and only 20 years later years during
00:28:25
perestroika, it was released in restored
00:28:27
full form, then his own film, Mirror,
00:28:29
was given a second distribution category in the brain of the
00:28:31
movie, it was considered unsuccessful and released
00:28:34
in limited distribution. Yes, sometimes instead of
00:28:36
edits and discussions, the picture was released, but
00:28:39
was simply given to a obviously
00:28:41
small number of people to see today, the name of
00:28:44
Tarkov’s standard and world classic And
00:28:47
at one time he could not
00:28:48
work normally and talked about this in letters to his
00:28:51
father Maybe you didn’t count But after all,
00:28:53
out of 20-odd years of work in Soviet
00:28:55
cinema, I was reliably unemployed for about 17
00:28:57
state cinema didn’t want me to
00:29:00
work, everyone hounded me this time and the
00:29:03
last straw There was a scandal in Cannes where
00:29:05
everything was done so that I would not receive an
00:29:07
award; these battles were almost
00:29:09
as many as the masterpieces themselves;
00:29:12
there was always something to dig into;
00:29:19
every time the old era was replaced by a
00:29:22
new one, periodically taking
00:29:25
previously banned films from the shelf with the beginning
00:29:27
perestroika released all the krakens at once,
00:29:29
full director's
00:29:31
versions of films were released on screens,
00:29:33
banned old films began a
00:29:36
new era of weakened censorship that was becoming a thing of the
00:29:38
past, all the topics that the
00:29:40
Soviet government tried to sweep under the
00:29:43
carpet became incredibly popular, it may
00:29:45
not be said very nicely, but you know,
00:29:48
Soviet cinema at that time was looks like a
00:29:51
girl who lived all her life in a
00:29:53
conservative family with strict
00:29:55
rules and then suddenly found herself in the
00:29:57
open world, went to university and
00:29:59
began to live alone, and then she was torn apart by
00:30:02
puritanical morals, bans on images of
00:30:05
violence and sex, which ultimately led to neither
00:30:07
what was planned nor education
00:30:09
moral image of the New
00:30:12
Man, all this led to the fact that as
00:30:14
soon as the censorship slept, Soviet people
00:30:17
ran en masse to look at this
00:30:19
forbidden fruit of sex, violence and other things,
00:30:21
the film My Name is Harlequin with
00:30:24
images of violence and nudity attracted
00:30:26
42 million viewers, the picture Little
00:30:30
Vera with the first erotic scene in
00:30:32
Soviet movie 56 million viewers and
00:30:35
every fifth person in the USSR watched it,
00:30:37
or a film about a foreign exchange prostitute
00:30:40
Interdevochka watched 44 million hits of the
00:30:43
perestroika movie Look what a
00:30:46
miracle the magazine about cinema Soviet Screen found in
00:30:50
1989, issue 6, there’s a very good
00:30:54
illustration here, they usually ask me before the
00:30:57
show What is the film about? If there is sex,
00:30:59
we'll take tickets No, we won't And then the
00:31:02
tape recorder starts up On the street, they sing and dance
00:31:05
But they don't go to the cinema One day I deceived them and
00:31:07
said that there would be sex and the film didn't
00:31:10
turn out to be so they wanted to prop up the wall with me,
00:31:12
very well we had
00:31:14
a little one and Me name is Harlequin, there
00:31:18
were a lot of people even standing in the hall, a
00:31:20
paradoxical thing. But as soon as the
00:31:22
censorship rules fell asleep, Soviet people
00:31:24
went en masse to watch in the cinema what
00:31:27
they had already seen in reality, because
00:31:29
drinking miners in the youth crisis, violence,
00:31:32
prostitution is something that
00:31:34
has always existed in Soviet society, just like
00:31:37
exists now, but this is something that does
00:31:40
n’t seem to have existed all these years, if you
00:31:42
look at the screen, the most popular
00:31:44
genre of films during perestroika is salshin,
00:31:47
everyone started filming on the theme of repression of the
00:31:49
death of ideals, or just outright
00:31:52
black stuff to lure an inexperienced
00:31:54
Soviet viewer, but in their time they
00:31:57
had my jokes in 1985 the
00:32:00
last and most stringent
00:32:03
anti-alcohol campaign begins, again I
00:32:05
recommend the previous video and this
00:32:07
was also reflected in the cinema from old
00:32:09
films they began to mercilessly cut out scenes where
00:32:12
they drank alcohol, because
00:32:14
Propaganda turns out that’s all
00:32:16
Gentlemen, we don’t drink, a new era, a new morality
00:32:19
and the new order from the film Mimino
00:32:22
cut out several scenes at once, for example,
00:32:24
the merry party in the Russia restaurant, the
00:32:27
drunken cries of velor disappeared from the picture Pokrovsky Gates; there
00:32:29
were also pictures that were
00:32:31
lucky to be born during
00:32:33
Prohibition and which had to be
00:32:35
adjusted in the film Love and Doves
00:32:38
on the Pier, a very colorful one should have appeared
00:32:40
a man who was found right
00:32:42
there and was offered to act in a movie and
00:32:45
drink 5 beers Imagine how
00:32:47
surprised and happy he was to me
00:32:49
on the streets they made such offers, but the scene was
00:32:52
cut out of course and in the final film
00:32:55
She wasn’t included, sorry man in the movie
00:32:57
kin-dza-dza alcohol on chacha
00:32:59
turned into vinegar,
00:33:03
this is not wine, this is vinegar. But according to the script, it is
00:33:07
because of its use that the heroes
00:33:09
end up on Alpha instead of the earth in general,
00:33:12
they even drank it along with the
00:33:14
aliens according to the script. Although in these
00:33:17
five short years of perestroika before the
00:33:19
collapse of the Union, the audience was mostly
00:33:21
they watched not domestic cinema, but the
00:33:23
wave of Western films that poured into the country.
00:33:26
Our cinema had little to
00:33:28
oppose Sylvester Stallone,
00:33:30
Jackie Chan or Schwarzenegger, they
00:33:32
were too curious to look at everything Western.
00:33:35
Well, then censorship itself ended, along
00:33:37
with the Soviet Union,
00:33:42
now there is an opinion that Soviet
00:33:46
cinema it was so good and so hot because of
00:33:49
competent censorship, which leaves all the worst from the metal,
00:33:51
leaving only diamonds, but
00:33:54
as you can see, sometimes even cult
00:33:57
folk films did not suit the censors.
00:33:59
Some of them might not have
00:34:01
seen the light of day at all if not for an Accident. Well, what about
00:34:03
an Accident for Stalin? - Khrushchev didn’t
00:34:06
like Brezhnev, something on
00:34:08
the contrary was going on. In general, there is in
00:34:11
all this some kind of scent of the Tsar Boyar, Who
00:34:13
came with a stick, hit him and decided something himself,
00:34:16
and whose word then weighs more than
00:34:18
the ruler of the bad council Or maybe the
00:34:22
author himself had such films which
00:34:25
at one time did not reach the screen
00:34:26
due to the incorrect depiction of
00:34:28
any event, the place of a person
00:34:31
was put on the shelf, the film Intervention with
00:34:33
Vysotsky, filmed on the anniversary of the October
00:34:35
Revolution, showed the revolution in the style of
00:34:37
comedy, civil events and the
00:34:41
Bolshevik struggle for power, told
00:34:43
comically, and that’s exactly what determined the fate of the
00:34:46
film, many banned films
00:34:49
were not oppositional, they did not shout down with
00:34:51
Lenin and so on, for this in general they could have
00:34:54
faced something worse than a
00:34:56
film ban, but they seemed to the censor to be
00:34:59
anti-Soviet simply in their form
00:35:01
because they depicted certain things
00:35:03
differently from the way they should have been depicted and
00:35:06
often This is precisely what could determine a film
00:35:08
as good or bad, and there
00:35:11
were actually plenty of truly bad films in the USSR. This is how a
00:35:16
nostalgic retrospective works, that from the 70
00:35:19
years of the film union, from several thousand
00:35:22
films, a golden set
00:35:24
of 10-15-20 popularly loved films remains in the memory And
00:35:28
about the rest, just No one remembers how
00:35:30
you like the movie Nylon one hundred percent
00:35:33
or maybe Moonlight Rainbow and Chernomorochka
00:35:36
heard something about them, while the appearance of
00:35:38
bad films in no way prevented the appearance of
00:35:41
really good ones, it’s just that
00:35:43
Soviet cinema had a cool film school and
00:35:45
talented directors who were on fire
00:35:47
their own business and worked even in spite of the
00:35:49
censorship apparatus, and the majority of Russian cinema
00:35:51
has neither the talent nor the
00:35:54
desire to create a good picture. So
00:35:56
if anyone has a heart for
00:35:58
Russian cinema, then spare
00:36:01
it, the last thing you can wish for it is that
00:36:04
state censorship somehow
00:36:06
copes with the world cinema creating
00:36:08
masterpieces and without Soviet officials, by giving
00:36:11
such power to some body, the artist
00:36:13
becomes very vulnerable to
00:36:15
the bureaucracy, especially since he used
00:36:17
this power and can
00:36:19
defend any goals in any way he wants.
00:36:29
busti, which
00:36:32
reduces the author's chances of dying of
00:36:34
hunger, I also frantically agitate to go to
00:36:37
telegram for music, texts, pictures
00:36:40
and additional materials on the video in the cart,
00:36:43
very cool, you can’t even
00:36:45
imagine how. And of course, it
00:36:47
would be nice to know what you think about
00:36:49
