Something better than "Little Vera" (film course r ecommendation)

[Allison Elena N.]

Nicole: I wonder what exactly is wrong with the "Little Vera"? Is it nudity,
or is it the general dreariness of life? I remember watching this film in
Russia when it was first released, and it seemed like some new truth was
being said in a new way...

. . . And while I'm inadvertently sending my supposedly "off-list" thanks
right back to the list, let me thank everyone who has responded privately
with excellent suggestions. I'm leaning now towards "Adam's Rib," which a
number of people suggested (a film only dimly remembered - I fear my
memories of "Little Vera" have cast a taint over ALL of the glastnost'-era
films I have seen).

Gratefully,

Nicole
