On December 31, the American version of the Russian film "The Irony of Fate, or Enjoy Your Bath!" Will be released on the Netflix platform. Here is the original story of the Soviet director Eldar Ryazanov. Favorite New Year movie of all Russians!
FIRST EPISODE. The Irony of Fate, or Enjoy Your Bath! is a 1976 Soviet romantic comedy television film directed by Eldar Ryazanov. The screenplay was written by Emil Braginsky and Ryazanov, loosely based on the director's 1971 play, Once on New Year's Eve. Filmed in 1975 at the Mosfilm Studios, The Irony of Fate doubles as a screwball comedy and a love story tinged with sadness. It was one of the most successful Soviet television productions and remains a highly popular New Year's Eve classic in Russia and the post-Soviet states, with millions tuning in to rewatch it every New Year's Eve.
The key subplot is the drab uniformity of Brezhnev-era public architecture. This setting is explained in a humorous animated prologue, in which architects are overruled by politicians and red tape. As a result, the identical, functional but unimaginative multistory apartment buildings found their way into every city, town, and suburb across the Soviet Union.
Following their annual tradition, a group of friends meet at a banya (a traditional public "sauna" bath) in Moscow to celebrate New Year's Eve. The friends all get very drunk toasting the upcoming marriage of the central male character, Zhenya Lukashin (Andrey Myagkov) to Galya (Olga Naumenko). After the bath, one of the friends, Pavlik (Aleksandr Shirvindt), has to catch a plane to Leningrad. Zhenya, on the other hand, is supposed to go home to celebrate New Year's Eve with his fiancée. Both Zhenya and Pavlik pass out. The remaining friends cannot remember which person from their group is supposed to catch the plane. They mistakenly send Zhenya on the plane instead of Pavlik.

I was sent here by my Russian teacher- this is better than any of Christmas/New Year films we have in the west😂
I HEARD A RUSSIAN GIRL THAT IN RUSSIA EVERYBODY WATCHS THIS MOVIE DURING CHRISTMAS, IS A CLASSICAL LIKE SCROOGE.
Thank you for this. My wife is Russian speaking and has told be about this for several years but I don't speak Russian. We are going to watch together tonight and I will not have to ask her what's going on.
OMG, I remember watching this movie in the 70s, while I was in my country Iraq, at that time the Iraqi public TV channel broadcasted many Great Soviet movies, this one was one of the best, I still remember it and gonna watch it again after I search and found it. Thank you1 🙏
I'm Indian and I'm learning Russian, currently at a ~A2 level. I never expected to land here much less watch an old film like this. I gotta say that it's a shame no one in my peer group would ever like watching such a film, oh well. But its awesome seeing all the different nationalities here.
Nadenka (Brylska Barbara) looks so beautiful and her character is well written. I like that she didn't kick out a drunk stranger in her apartment (it's risky though brave of her 😄) rather understood his side of story. Even gave Zhenya money so that he can fly back to Moscow. So compassionate!👍🏻. Kudos to Ryazanov Eldar 👏
Everything about this film totally exceeded my expectations. From the opening cartoon, to the charming script, lovely music, and outstanding acting. Such a gem of a Soviet masterpiece!
To be fair, exactly the same happened to architecture in the West.
I am 51 now.. Born in Soviet union.. Still every year watch this movie.. Memory of my childhood 😢.. My mom, grandma.. Miss them 😢
Also FYI for those that don't know Russian. The subtitles are not that great. A lot of the dialog is not being translated and meaning is lost in this hurriedly done translation. I wish someone would do a professional dub of this movie. It would be amazing.
I am Zimbabwean learning Russian, this has got to be one of the best films i have watched in a long time, looking forward to part two.
An incredible story about a man who misplaced the cities and found his love during the one special night - New Year's celebration.
This movie is so good. Just something about it. First watched it in 2008 when I was learning about the USSR.
Живу в Нидерландах. К нам на новый год приходят друзья, нидерландцы. Здесь новый год не празднуют, только Рождество и сегодня первый день Рождества. Несколько лет назад я показал им этот фильм,сам его переводил. Они были в восторге. Потом пришла очередь " служебного романа". Затем " вокзал для двоих" ( стал любимым). Им полюбились наши советские фильмы. Теперь эта традиция. В этом году покажу " карнавальную ночь".

Сколько себя помню (а мне уже 40 лет) ни один новый год не прошел без этого фильма 😊
Just watched this and it is my new absolute favourite movie. It's a masterpiece, I cried a little at the end simply because it's so beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Фильм на все времена, который смотришь с большим удовольствием!¡ Браво нашим великолепным актерам 🎉🎉🎉
I'm watching this movie for New Year on recommendation of a Russian friend.
