★★★★★ · Marvelous movie from Nikolay Gogol · Granita To Go · 2010-09-24
Thank you for including this on the Internet Archive. I enjoy the story so much. The films takes us back to an earlier Russian time with costumes, houses, the czar, the palace, the food . . . all the culture is wonderfully visible. In color, too.

This movie is an in-your-face delight. Colorful and sometimes hilarious. You don't even need to understand the dialog.
