A little bit beyond expectations. The film was still being filmed in 17 years, and a publicist I met in Cannes sent the first batch of stills. I started paying attention to this film at that time, but I only watched it today. I didn't expect much from director Ralph Fiennes. I didn't expect the lines to be condensed and there was no nonsense. The plot design was enough to touch the hearts of the characters. The airport defections were quite exciting and the actors performed well. The most successful thing is that the film showed that he was incompatible with the Soviet Union and seemed passive in the process. It is an objective and inevitable thing to stay in the West, rather than subjectively destroying the great motherland. From a pink standpoint, it does not seem to be that heinous. The music is very beautiful, and the interspersed technique of dance and plot reminded me of "Hong Lingyan" for a while. The temper to the teacher was a bit abrupt in the middle, I want to express his personality, I understand, but the technique is a bit blunt.

Interrogator: You knew.
Aleksandr Ivanovich Pushkin: No.
Interrogator: You knew what he was planning to do.
Aleksandr Ivanovich Pushkin: No.
Interrogator: You're saying he never spoke of defection?
Aleksandr Ivanovich Pushkin: The subject never came up.
Interrogator: He never spoke of it?
Aleksandr Ivanovich Pushkin: Never.
Interrogator: This is an attack on the Soviet Union.
Aleksandr Ivanovich Pushkin: No, It's about dance.
Interrogator: Dance?
Aleksandr Ivanovich Pushkin: He knows nothing about politics. He's gone to the West because there he can dance.
Interrogator: He could dance here.
Aleksandr Ivanovich Pushkin: Yes, but... I think it's likely he had an explosion of character. That's who he is.
