There are two, uh, images

The dissident and the Soviet.

The dissident and the Soviet.

I was...

This is what I was talking about.

I would like to ask the author:

Why a man,

who called himself a dissident,

Why a man,

who called himself a dissident,

Do you intend to defend the KGB?

I have never defined myself

A dissident.

I was just a man in contrast

with the penal code.

I remember her,

When he still lived in Moscow.

We knew each other,

I have taken many roads,

while waiting for it to arrive

My moment.

The moment of the hero.

And when it arrives,

Better to be in the motherland.

You have to live in Russia

long enough,

To see the pendulum of time

make a complete movement,

To hear the sound of his blade

that breaks down,

To feel part of the story. "

I cursed you,

for eternal life.

For the living inside you

and the deceased,

For them, I'm alone

Another Soma beast,

Useful to reach a number.

The Soviet Union goes on

to numbers,

Instead I have a monotony

of planned life.

What I don't understand is:

who makes us one with my talent

In this damned factory?

In this damned factory?

But the life of Charkiv is this,

or end you stabbed in a fight

or you get drunk to death from boredom,

There is no other option.

I was wondering,

If Eddie went to Moscow ...

.. with such a poem,

would it be successful?

.. with such a poem,

You have to have the right time.

It is a beautiful poem.

It's really beautiful.

You should go to Moscow, Eddie.

Brusilovsky: Mhm, Moscow

But because they are

all obsessed From Moscow?

This is an excellent environment

To write, paint,

To party, debate.

Life is beautiful here in Charkiv.

It is far away

from all that artificiality

and from the vacuous frantic

confusion of the capital.

Here you get a good life.

Right here.

You know, I almost envy you.

About life, I do you

Feel my last poem.

About life, I do you

Feel my last poem.

Brusilovsky: MH-MH. Yes.

I died,

But I've never been so alive.

There is nothing,

but there is everything.

There is nothing,

but there is everything.

What will happen now?

What's after world fame?

After the prison? After all that

What happened to me?

Maybe I should invent

A new religion?

Maybe I should invent

A new religion?

Or unleash a new w*r?

Certainly, Eddie,

from "true hero" as you are,

You will not die of old age,

in your bed.

It would be so unfair.

It would be horrible. "

- Open the gate.

- Can the book be autographed?

Yes, but of course.

We will miss you,

Eduard Veniaminovic.

Thank you.

(Shouts of joy)

Excuse me, Eduard Veniaminovic,

Can we do it again?

- His exit, we were wrong.

- Again?

- Yes. Eduard Veniaminovic,

another thing.

- Yes. Eduard Veniaminovic,

another thing.

Can we put a radiomicrophone?

Yes, certainly.

In Russia let's say:

"If you come to the dance,

You must be ready to dance ".

"If you come to the dance,

You must be ready to dance ".

- Ready?

- Yes.

We remake it, please.

Action!
