You need to post more pictures of Alexander and more flattering texts about hes beauty and attractiveness;) So, he will invite you to travel with him more often. I love the flick "Back to the Future" also. Lea Thompson is one of my favorite actresses, but not so favorite as Judy Holliday http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0063615/ This is masterpiece flick, unknown outside Russia. I'd like to see a flick in this genre flicked in the US, but i don't know anything like that.
He's usually traveling on press tours, and when he's going on an independent trip he now takes his girlfriend. So, I'm out of luck! :) You knew this slang word "flick" before I brought it to your attention? Thanks for the Soviet movie suggestion. I will see if I can find it with English subtitles.
You can find the subtitles separately, they are free. It's hard to surprise me with slang, because i would rather impress you by barbarous еnglish if you heard my speech:)
You write English very well, and I'm sure your spoken form is fine. I've noticed that many Russians are hesitant to speak English for fear of making a mistake, yet they fail to recognize that Americans are communicating with foreign immigrants on a daily basis in our homeland. Some sadly with very poor English skills. So, we're adept at understanding even horrible English, and are accustomed to a wide variety of dialects and accents. Don't be afraid to speak English if you ever make your way to America. And I hope you do some day!!
Wow! :) Thank you very much, Shannon! I like to watch movies as much as I like to read books. 4 years ago we have been to Los Angeles and spent the whole day an the Universal Studio. Oh, it was such a pleasure! Like inside a fairy-tale :)
It's amazing to see the movie sets at Universal Studios because parts of them look so fake. However, on the movie screen they look magnificent and totally believable. Hollywood magic. :))
It seems most readers didn't find the post interesting based on the lack of response, but I'm glad you enjoyed it. :) The best Coen brothers films, in my opinion, are "The Big Lebowski' and "Fargo."
It`s interesting for me, I never been at film studios) I agreee about best Cohen brothers` films, but I would add "Where are you, brother?" and "No country for old men"
All these spaceship-like constructions look quite silly when are made from today's real-world materials... The same, trying to replicate Stalin-era classic buildings but with blue windows and plastic frames also look silly. The form and the material should be in consonance.
Surely, I adore "Back to the Future" series but in general, as I probably told you before, I think that Americans do not understand what the spirit of future is. In all American movies people of past, present, and future are psychologically and socially the same average Americans. Only technology changes. Very primitive I think it is :)
For the real spirit of Future I recommend these movies:
"Americans don't understand what the future is." :))) And how do you envision the future? I will try to find the films you referenced with English subtitles so I can put your comment in context and understand the complex mind of futuristic Russians. :)
First of all, the society should become not competitive but cooperative. Next, the primary area of interest for people will be not accumulating wealth but curiosity, science, self-development, and help to other civilizations and cultures.
Basically, these movies show different people, good people, people you can trust,
Unless all men are eliminated from the earth, society will never be non-competitive. Males typically are ego driven and competitive. Women are more selfless, of course there are always exceptions to the general rule. The futuristic people you describe in your statement are currently roaming the earth - those who value curiosity and self-development over wealth and superficial things, but they're in the minority. I can't envision any future where money will not rule the world, and this personality type will become the majority. Sad reality.

en. wikipedia. org/wiki/Moscow-Cassiopeia (and it's sequel!)
en. wikipedia. org/wiki/Per_Aspera_Ad_Astra_%28film%29 (original version)
en. wikipedia. org/wiki/Guest_from_the_Future
I know that the last one is watched by Russian children in America so even there they have a chance to grow as good people with proper values :)))
