Russian Movies

Thanks for all the suggestions about Russian singers and songs, many of them were great!

Another question is about Russian movies. What Russian movies would you recommend for the Russian language student who loves good films?

He liked Ironia sud'by and Obyknovennoe chudo. He was able to understand about third of the dialogs in Russian and the rest with the help of English and Russian subtitles.

Thanks!

My eye stumbled at it and I thought that writing Гайдай as Gayday is not the best way. It looks like a day of gays. :) May be, Guydui or something?

Among Ryazanov's films I would definitely recommend watching "The Garage" (Гараж) and "Railway station for two" (Вокзал для двоих).

As to Kin-Dza-Dza, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone, especially a foreigner. I never undestood that film and I can't undestand why it was to make it. That's just my opinion of course.
