If for every press conference there is Sergei Svetlakov, the brunt of all the issues he takes on. The intrigue is that nobody knows whether it will be in response to joke or a serious answer because it appears, inside it constantly switches invisible switch. On the one hand, Svetlakov – entertainer, comedian and actor, who is contraindicated to utter even one word without irony. On the other hand on this project, he and screenwriter, and producer, which demands a certain responsibility for many of the words. For example, he openly says that originally the film was to be called “May” (heroes celebrate victory Day), and its output was scheduled for may 2016. But what was confusing was the ending of the film – there was too much clowning and not enough heroism and melodrama and “vitality”. It was therefore decided to invent a new ending, and because of this, the budget of 65 million roubles has grown almost 100 million. However, for the European version, according to the authors of the film, there will be another finale where his character, Toll, leaving to Germany to live with German (the latter played by the Swiss Philippe Reinhardt). Will still be a depressing ending for depressed regions of the country, and when the film just ends – in the style of woody Allen, with whom Director Alexander Nezlobin then again compared his film. A joke. The advertising budget of the movie amounted to about 90 million But the filmmakers are confident in the quality of the film and its chances of commercial success.

Svetlakov also admitted that at times not just improvised in the frame, but spoke as if from himself. For example, in the film, Roofing delivers a great tirade about his grandfather, who in the war came to Czechoslovakia, and there he was retired because of a concussion. This is the story of the grandfather of the svetlakova, and the joke associated with this tirade, is also not such a joke.

“Legacy of the past. Of course it was wrong 70 years later to think about it, but that we sit in, its not clean. This gives rise to the humor, but some important distinction, I think we were passed over, and the film equally went to the cross and ours, and the Germans,” said Svetlakov.

The creators of the film asked why women in the “Groom” such a strong. Svetlakov retorted that women today are all “dragged” on itself, this is a normal state of Affairs. And his parents home was a mom. In his family he tries to be in charge. Philip Reinhardt told that his parents not so long ago came to Russia, and his sober, strict father after several shots of vodka had become the toast for the toast. Reinhardt’ve ever seen before.
