I think it's from the movie Hans Christian Anderson, where he walks around singing "I'm Hans Christian Anderson!" with his hand on his hips like the guy was doing.
@EponymousKid I saw something on the IMDB boards awhile ago with a Russian person defending this movie as a part of their culture and calling all the people who ribbed it (all, MST3K fans) insensitive and ethnocentric. It was just one or two people, but they seemed to take it pretty seriously.
If John Lasseter is an MST3K fan maybe Nanunushka will be the next Disney princess. She certainly has the whole "girl with a crappy life who somehow has a pleasant, hard working personality" part down pat.
I just love how, later in the movie, the heroine is rewarded when she does the "right" thing, insisting that she's FINE, just fine, really, no problem at all, when she's actually in fact dying of the cold.
Maybe it's because I know the Russians, but I seriously LOVE this episode. Sometimes it's nice when they watch weird movies instead of just awful movies.
I think that even without the riffs these Russian films would be great fun
"How about a little sugar for the rooster!" "This is a test of the emergency broadcast chicken" "Peter must be walkin' 'round denyin' everyone this morning" "*clears throat* Ah ah ah ah aaaahh!"
Is it just me or does Ivan's mom completely disappear from the story after her one scene?
Father Mushroom is the best riff fuel in the whole episode
Damn, when you watch this movie in Russian as a child, you don't see anything weird about it. Then later on in life you notice how well that ugly bitch sucks that damn lollipop! lol I'm horrible. >;]
@PyrozPlayground I wish they did more old Russian movies. Watching this one with Mike was hilarious and it felt very warm and personal too. At least to me :P
@abombinreverse quoting this show kinda makes it feel like the show never left even though the ppl of mst3k are actually doing current movies under a new name
MSTied or not I love this movie, it's funny in its own right, and that brunnet girl is so unbelievably adorable. Still, the riffing only doubles the goodness.
His talk with the mushroom gets awfully repetitive for such a short talk. I think the argument between Joe Don and the little boy in Mitchell had less repetition.
Yes, the story is Russian. but they call it a Russo-Finnish co-production. I just assumed this meant that some Finns or Finnish film companies helped produce the film. Or maybe the director was dating a hot Finnish gal at the time who insisted on being credited? Sorry, I"m not sure.
MST3K crew just made mistake. No finnish companies were involved in production. It's pure Russian movie Morozko. Believe me, i know the subject, because i live in Russia. Morozko is kind of cult folk movie here.
And people tend to forget that Finland was part of Russia for a very long time and even though they were independent at the time this film was produced, they were still heavily involved with Russia.
