All your favorite Soviet melodramas

The old era left us with a legacy of many traditions, cultural characteristics and values that are considered acceptable in society so far. Not the last place in this list is occupied by Soviet cinema. For half a century, talented filmmakers and actors gave people the opportunity to watch various films, including comedies and historical paintings. However, most of all the audience liked the Soviet melodrama, in which life was presented most often from the comic side.

Such films were watched by the whole family in the past years, they are watching them with children even now. It is believed that such pictures are good teachers, which show how to do it is not worth it, which brings joy, and that leads to disappointment. Below you will see the best Soviet melodramas, with which you can pass the weekend, enjoying nostalgic pictures from the old life of Russia.

On the first place is a fascinating and slightly fantastic film "Beware of the car!". The plot is familiar to us all - "Robin Hood" by the name of Yuri Detochkin steals cars from the rich, then sells them, and proceeds to the needy. However, people do not divide into good and bad so categorically, and in this the main character will be convinced later.

Soviet melodrama is hard to imagine without a comedy picture called "The Irony of Fate, or With Easy Steam!". This is the best alternative to any American Christmas movie, which combines humor, sadness, relationships and terrible absurdity, which led to an unexpected outcome. And, of course, a low bow to the talented actors who forever remained for the audience of Nadia, Zhenya and Hippolyte.

All Soviet comedies, as a rule, are distinguished by a serious plot based on experiences and often suffering of people. But, strangely enough, all this is described in ridiculous colors, with a bunch of funny details and dialogues. An example of this is the picture "Office Romance", as another fairy tale about the ugly duckling. In this film, a man who was once deeply offended by his wife finds happiness with his boss. She, in turn, turns from an evil tyrant with a masculine character into a sensual woman to envy everything.

Some Soviet melodramas, oddly enough, lack elements of comedy. Typical is the film "We'll Live To Monday", fully revealing the essence of unrequited love. Yesterday's graduate, who became a teacher, is in love with her colleague, the teacher of history, since school days. In order to please him, she changes her style of behavior, which causes misunderstanding on the part of the students ...

Attention deserves the film "Moscow does not believe in tears." The picture shows the fate of three girls, who are completely different, but at the same time, through the years, they make their friendship and become happy.

Nowadays, there are remakes and continuations of all your favorite old movies. Several years ago on the screens there was a continuation of the "Irony of Fate". Such paintings can be called "new Soviet melodrama." 2013 th gave us hopes for new gifts of cinema, which, perhaps, will reveal to us the secrets of the life of your favorite heroes.
