Notes on the film
26 April 2023
I'm not a movie fan and I rarely go to the cinema. But after the video about the premiere of the film Luxembourg, Luxembourg in the Ukrainian village of Blyznyuki (Twins), I decided that it must be watched. I am not disappointed, the film is excellent. It conveys the color and zeitgeist, the excellent performance of the actors, well-chosen soundtracks. More precisely, actors live, not play. It is impossible to translate jargon, a mixture of Russian and Ukrainian languages, surzhik as it is called. Many beautiful scenes, funny, comic and sad moments, which are also understandable to Ukrainians.

However, I didn't like two things - when the brothers go abroad, they end up in civilization from the dark forest. Ukraine is not so wild. And I still can't come to terms with Mykola's disgusting abuse of his mother. I understand that this often happens in life. But - respect your father and mother!!! It is felt that the director had difficulties in communicating with his mother, and this is visible in the female characters in the film. But Antonio is a talented director and will surely delight us with his works. I hope.
