Simply Perfect

Perfect cast and a good story

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

The story is very intriguing and the music composed by Strauss is wonderful to listen to. The presentation of this story by the cast and crew of the former Soviet Union was excellent. Eisenstein gets in trouble for shooting a grouse. He is told that he must go to prison for his crime. However, his friend has invited him to an aristocratic ball. Eisenstein, despite being married, wants to go to the ball to meet women. Eisenstein lies to his wife. He tells her that he is going to prison but actually he goes to the ball. His story arises the suspicion of his wife. His wife devises a plot to catch her womanizing husband. This story then evolves in an interesting way. One should watch the movie to see how the story develops and ends.
