Envelope (17min film with Kevin Spacey)

Evgeniy's hobby is to send fake letters to real countries. He has collected a letter from every country except New Zealand, and he sends a letter there. Things turn worst when he actually receives a letter from someone there.
Written and directed by Aleksey Nuzhny

A short fabulous movie! K. Spacey a top actor. From Brazil with love

4 mins in he better get this goddamn letter back 😭😭😭 I never appreciated Kevin spacey when I was younger, I began to appreciate him only recently I wish for him to return. I get the sense that this character is a little bit Kevin himself.

[@Sukira69]

why do Russian people speak to each other in English with a Russian accent would n't it make more sense to have Russian actors acting

[@DrFaustusZ]

They are speaking Russian in canon but we understand it as English, that’s why it’s an accent.

I read about this occasion before The original story happened in 1939 But they say it's just a legend But who knows:)

[@whoslunlol8382]

I wonder why they felt the need to talk with Russian accent like,why?

[@irinab7524]

Потому что их первый язык - не русский. Нельзя говорить на неродном языке без акцента

[@ValarieCole]

Wow 😳

[@thedbq1]

so they spoke english in soviet in 1985?

[@lov3this373]

No they didn't Russians usually speak only Russian They are imperialistic nation like Anglo-saxons too Russian language is wide spread on territory of ex Soviet countries and Russians started to go abroad only after fall of USSR and they never needed to speak foreign languages before perestroika (re-building) They probably adapted story for American viewers

[@lisakovalenko9003]

This film was shot in America with American actors. It would be much weirder to listen to them speaking terrible Russian

Oh yes they did. At least they would be still going through the motions in these particular circumstances.

@@dianagratigny8206did you?!? I graduated from college in 1984 and it wasn’t the USSR like it was in 1939 when this story really happened….even then, that man was not arrested leave alone in 1985….i was sending letters in Poland and Czech Republic when I was like 12-13 years old - which is 1974-75. We even exchanged small packages for New Year presents. Yeah, I would get a crazy idea to send letters to imaginary friends but in 1985 nobody cared about KGB for such stupid little things. Yeah, you wouldn’t travel to USA or Australia back then, but go to jail?!? Really? People are making that up….very stupid. Real story is much more interesting

[@irinab7524]

That’s very misleading! 1984 there were no repressions - they were over in 1953 when Stalin died. This story happened before WWII in 1935 - and even then he wasn’t in jail - he died in air crash. The real story was about how come that man (Petrov) could be in the picture at the time he was in ICU unconscious. This is a real story proving that there are things we can’t explain, however, the movie made as political nonsense.

[@kgmakogon]

The story with letters and such was completely made up as an April 1st story for a Russian Ogonyok Magazine in 1999. The author of the article, is a Russian Journalist Valeri Chumakov. In the reality, the writer and journalist Evgeniy Petrov never had such a hobby, though he indeed died in a plane crash in 1942.

[@borfer9366]

this really happened in 1939 with the writer Petrov. But, as usual, it was not without Russophobia! No one arrested Petrov. But he really died in a plane crash.

[@dmitryivanov9026]

Good acting and touching story. However, as a Russian I must express my disappointment with the anti-Soviet propagandisitc cliches. It's hard to imagine a Western movie about Russia or the USSR without a KGB officer looking for spies. Good God he didnt shoot him without a trial right in front of the man's wife!

[@hedgehogshows1473]

Yeah, right. The dude is sending letters abroad all his life, then he gets an actual answer + his neighbour "informs" the power structures about him. It would have been a miracle if nothing happened.

[@user-jz3su9rk9u]

This "stereotype" is based on facts. Hundred thousands innocent people were killed by NKVD (KGB) on a charge of spying. My grandfather was arrested just because of his Polish roots. More than 100 thousand innocent people were shot during so called "Polish operation of NKVD" being absurdly accused of spying for Poland.

[@dmitryivanov9026]

@@user-jz3su9rk9u I have heard those stories about innocent people being killed for absurd reasons lots of times, but when you start digging, it turns out grandfathers and other relatives were not so pure.

@@dmitryivanov9026 Aha, 100 thousand people (including Siberian peasants) murdered by Stalin's butchers during the "Polish Operation of the NKVD' were "not so pure" and were "really" Polish spies. Who can believe this nonsense except Stalin chapelgoers? Even the Soviet state finally addmitted their innocence, but yet stalinists like you continue lying that millions of victims of stalinism were really killed for a reason.
