Is this unedited or is there a version with the entire scherzo? Absolutely love the staging, the colours, the attampt to showcase soviet TV productionte viewers at home etc. A film of SR at the height of his powers.

i dont like richter style... exaggerated Forte and often too fast !

Indeed. Richter was known for his rock-solid sense of timing. Far too many gifted musicians today treat every note as if it had a series of fermata over it, and it frustrates me to no end. I want to hear the composition, not a musician struggling in vain to bring his or her audience to climax.
The composition takes care of that by itself, hence the notoriety of composers.

yes, he was....
His expression makes it look like he's got it in for that piano. "take that! And that! And that! -Had enough? No? Here's another!"
