#goncharev 1973

“Did you watch Goncharov 1973?”

“Nah, too much controversy surrounding the stage crew.”

[demisexualemmaswan]

I think the biggest thing missing from the goncharev (1973) discussion is the score

the way each character’s leitmotif is directly tied in with a specific character, a clear homage to prokofiev’s peter and the wolf?

the sultry lower range of the clarinet for kayta? the mournful viola for andrey? GONCHAREV’S VIOLA???

the fuckening french horn & viola countermelodies in that one scene between that one gonchrey scene (you know, with knife and the fading ticking of the grandfather clock???)

I just—UGH!!! so good.

someone join me here fangirling about it

[layer-bloody-sun]

I leave tumblr for a while because of school and none of you even THOUGHT about telling me we were all watching Goncharov. Bunch of fake friends

[onskin]

fuck it! goncharev era has got to be my favorite era in tumblr.com ever! it only proves how we collectively come together when it comes to be original in the bat shit crazy. tumblr users write, direct, make fanart off of *poof* legit nothing!!further proves, we’re just a bunch of failed somebody’s that wish too much upon the stars. brains full of ideas. damaged gods, they say. rad mindsets that stink of rotten. really, emotionally unstable individuals thay eat sarcasm for their morning coffee. im telling you, goncharev (1973) is a bandaid for the ratched ones ,,, the inside psyche of the mad asf dessilusionists. im sorry it is what it is ...

I can’t believe it’s the 50th anniversary of goncharov this year it literally feels like it JUST came out

Goncharov (1973)

Dir. Martin Scorsese

Screenplay by Matteo JWHJ

[soultea]

OH Goncharov THIS and Sophie THAT but what about Valery huh? Valery Michailov who cares SO MUCH about his sister. Valery Michailov who has no discernable love interest (no Luciana doesn't count it was never confirmed and honestly I didn't buy it on his end in the film itself). Valery Michailov who clearly doesn't have a sexual urge in his body if those failed seduction scenes are to be believed. Valery Michailov who is SO DONE with all the romantic drama and just wants to go home and have his family intact again.

Y'all can keep your homoerotic tension, I want the aro/ace King.

“If we really were in love you wouldn’t have missed” hits harder when you remember that goncharov shot andrey after he made him promise to if they got caught back in their younger days. Goncharov looking into his eyes and shooting him, not knowing if he’d live, was his way of saying I love you in the only way he knew how.

Comparatively, andrey killing both himself and goncharov at the end, after everything that they’d been through, was his way of finally saying “I love you too”

Just like andrey said, “death is the ultimate form of devotion”

“It catches up to us all, Goncharov— time.”

AHHHHHH IM SO FUCKING GLAD THIS MOVIE HAS FINALLY BEGUN TO BE TALKED ABOUT. THERE IS SO MUCH TO SAY, AND YET THE MOVIE ALSO?? SOMEHOW??? SAYS EVERYTHING THERE IS TO SAY. That’s what makes it so good I think- the queer representation, the subltleties of Scorcese’s work?? Everything. Me and my boyfriend decided to rewatch it together and everything holds up so well, we were both even crying by the bridge scene.

If you haven’t seen this movie yet, or you haven’t rewatched it in a while- without hesitation go watch it now. It is one of the only classics that I will sing praise for and it is so deserving. Goncharov is a movie like no other, all should experience it’s wonder.

Ok I know Goncharov and Andrey are supposed to be having this whole “will they, won’t they” thing going on, but like let’s be honest. They definitely fucked like 3 times and we all know after what scenes

[ifwebefriends]

[quadruple-a]

I still can’t believe that Goncharov never won an Oscar! That film is a masterpiece!

[goldiebeams]

GUYS IM IN TOO DEEP, I SAW THIS SPONSORED POST BY PRIME VIDEO ON INSTAGRAM AND I THOUGHT IT WAS GONCHAROV 😭😭

[you-need-not-apply]

Nows a good a time as any to promote this amazing video essay about Goncharov that I found a while ago. She goes really in-depth with the characters and honestly shows how good the film truely is and that it’s not just another mafia film
