    Amazing Soviet parody of Westerns and a tribute to cinema
    A great and funny Soviet musical parody of Hollywood Westerns and also a tribute to the history of cinema. By portraying in an amusing way most of the genre clichés (saloon brawl, whisky, piano playing, can can dance, a stagecoach robbery, an eyepatch, shot men dropping from above...). That typical Old West caothic town is changed when a foreign man screens movies (indeed famous real and historic early films from XIX century). Besides being a cute homage to the seventh art, there is also implicitly a mockery on the United States values and on what was being produced in Hollywood on the 80's. It is probably among the 10 best movies made in Soviet Union. Alla Surikova, a woman inside the almost purely male universe of top Mosfilm directors, has a great work here, as there are many difficult action scenes wonderfully made.
