Audience Member A lively comedy of manners from Barnet who obviously thrives on the vitality of the city (Moscow). A satire on NEPmen, but also taking shots at the overcrowding in the decaying buildings of the time. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Sly, winking Russian silent film with wonderful photography. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
