    Tales of Kira Muratova

    "Three Stories" is a crime film by the genius Kira Muratova. A criminal parable with Chekhov's dialogs and Shakespeare's passions. Three stories of relations between men and women with a tragic but logical ending. Renata Litvinova finally confirmed her status as a truly Muratova actress. As always, Oleg Tabakov's game is brilliant.

    Definitely worth to see

    Kira Muratova is one of my favorite directors. She combines in her movies such an unusual and interesting blend of feminine subtlety and masculine hardness and power. This movie is a perfect evidence of it. The movie consists of three unrelated stories, which, as I see it, reflect the director's view on dark sides of various demographic parts of contemporary society. The first story is by far the best on my opinion. Though this part of the movie can be easily regarded as misandric, I especially love it for absolutely excellent and sparkling playing of actors.

    Definitely recommend all to see this movie.
