Can We Please Be Fucking Nice To It/its Users

I made the wonderful decision to doodle Sofia and Katya (Yekaterina) because their dynamic is my favourite by far!

If you haven’t watched Goncharov (1973) yet what are you doing fr

I don’t have time to draw it right now but while driving home from the winco I saw a happy mustached man pedaling a bike, towing a cart built to look like a chariot, inside of which stood what I can only imagine was his completely expressionless 13 year old in a makeshift corinthian helmet

what's your favorite goncharov quote

i know it's a little overdone, but the

"i shot you since i love you"

"if you loved me, you wouldn't miss"

is goddamn incredible

The fact that they casted Goldie Hawn to play her was also clearly a very thought through choice as she appears so cheerful and bubbly in the first minutes of her scenes (because of her characteristical smile and blonde hair)!!!

So glad someone else is talking about Nastya I loved her character

ok but how does no one remember nastya goncharov? plays violin and viola, katya and goncharov’s adopted daughter?!?

youd think more people would remember her, given that she sacrificed herself for katya - her MOTHER. - in the boat scene. and her death was the first time the ticking clock truly was brought into focus? iconic moment. i don’t usually cry when watching movies but when i heard the clock’s ticking reflect the song she was playing in the dinner party scene i was SOBBING.

sorry i just love nastya goncharov

I posted a chatty video on my YouTube channel all about how I started reading in French, with some francophone book recommendations too! You can find it here 🇫🇷📚✨

honestly I think what makes goncharov so great is that it really speaks to what we are missing in so much of cinema nowadays. it's daring. it takes risks. it has wonderfully human themes. the characters have depth.

I keep telling people about it and what it's about, burying the lede so far into the pitch that they invariably get going and wanting to see it and learn more. the people are starved for meaningful entertainment. the people want stories like this. this is the website of fandom and the media savvy. this is who we are and what we need

there was not a single braincell amongst the characters in this silly little show
