No french review yet:
This collection brings together a trio of comedy shorts featuring some of Britain's brightest comic talent such as Steve Coogan, MacKenzie Crook and the LEAGUE OF GENTLEMEN'S Reece Shearsmith.
A Reluctant Tragic Hero
Tolkachov a frustrated and exasperated family man, exhausted from running constant and countless errands for friends and family, visits his good friend Murashkin to let off steam, and hopefully garner some much needed sympathy. But the result of his rant only serves to see him leaving with more problems than he actually arrived with.
The Bear
Smirnoff, a rude and boorish landowner, calls on the recently widowed Popova to collect on an IOU owed to him by her late husband. When the grieving widow is unable to pay him, Smirnoff simply refuses to leave - and the passionate, fiery altercation they embark on leads them to agree on fighting a duel to the death with a pair of pistols.
The Proposal
Lomov a nervous hypochondriac, visits his neighbour Natasha to ask for her hand in marriage. But his romantic endeavours are scuppered when the couple, and also her father, find themselves in a circle of petty arguments and disagreements...and an unstoppable bout of one-upmanship.
The Dangers of Tobacco
Nyukhin is a brow-beaten husband of a domineering wife. He delivers, at her command, a lecture on the harmful effects of smoking tobacco. But as Nyukhin struggles to stick to the intended subject matter of his speech, we learn of his regrets, yearnings... and of his miserable life 'under the thumb'.
