Day 16

Today’s movie Peter FM was a cute love story. A woman Masha is a radio head for Peter FM, a local station in St.Petersberg. She is about to get married. She loses her phone and a man Maxim picks it up. They talk back and forth and form a relationship. They talk only over the phone due to their inability to meet in real life. Every time they set a place and time they do see each other and just miss each other by seconds. This drives me crazy; I don't understand why they can just meet each other. She ends up leaving her soon to be husband because she realizes that she is no longer in love with him. The radio station helps her realize this when a woman calls to ask what to do with her husband after she is no longer in love with him. Maxim and she keep communicating and finally when you think this is going to be the time he drops the phone in the river. When you think they are now never going to communicate again Maxim calls the radio station to make an announcement to help find Masha. He found her and hopefully they will finally meet. Aww..

  1. Aww, is absolutely right! :>) This sort of lighthearted love story is really quite unusual for Russians--and it will be interesting to see whether more such films in this vein will be created there.

  2. Wait, isn't this the exact kind of thing Russian audiences make fun of America for?
