Criticism

[edit]

Rita Sergeyecheva and talented tragic actor Lev Durov are so human, courageous and at the same time so defenseless that you watch the film - and all the while trampling in the nose treacherously. Particularly light final scene.[6]

The film is not afraid of reproaches in sentimentality, moreover, it has its direct aim to provoke in us, the spectators, the simplest and warmest emotions and frank desire that everything ends wellю Rita Sergeycheva played Tonya. She played her harsh and childish straightforwardness and organic categorical, collectivism, her absolute misunderstanding that things may not be common, but someone's, her trustful contact and some kind of bitterly bitter independence of the child. In general, this film is overly talked, and its plot for the television is too tightly knit. There would be more pauses, accidents that do not serve this very plot, more than that artistically necessary non-essentiality in the frame to which the best works of the television movie.[7]
