How did you survive the departure of a friend, film Director Eldar Ryazanov?
I had a feeling that out of I took a support. Eldar was one of those people whose presence dictates the ambient level of decency. He was the commandments. His authority was so great that even the CADS and lackeys expressed cautious “on the sly”. The commercial was made-up and not conspicuous.

But without essay, without afraid, without Ryazanov… life is hard.
