Russian with Movies
Today I offer you my method of learning the Russian language through Russian movies. This is the 1st video of the series; if you like it please leave your comments and I’ll continue making next videos of the series. Russian with Movies 🙂
For this video, I’ve chosen the short episode of the super popular Soviet film called “Служебный роман” (“The Office Romance”).
It is a Soviet film, lyrical comedy in two episodes directed by Eldar Ryazanov. The film was created at the Mosfilm Studio in 1977; in 1978 it had over 58 million viewers.
