You won't be disappointed!
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
"Zima v Prostokvashino" or "Winter in Prostokvashino" is the third and last installment of Popov and Uspenskiy's Uncle Fyodor short film series. This one runs for under 16 minutes and came out in 1984, 6 years after the first and 4 years after the second. The title already describes. it is the winter holidays and Fyodor and his family visit their canine and feline friends out where it is really cold. I must say I found this short film certainly fairly uninteresting, not on par with the 2 previous installments. The music is not too memorable either and I am referring to the very last scene with this. I am not too angry that the series ended with this short film, maybe it was already one too many. Still, if you really loved the first two, you can check this one out as well, otherwise skip it. You will not be missing too much. Not recommended unless you're a huge fan of what was before.
