Where to Watch Don't Play the Fool... (1997) in the UK

What it's about

I really liked this movie. I consider it's the best comedy of Mr. Evdokimov (actor turned a Russian governor) who sadly passed away in a tragic accident.Anyway - this film is very simple, yet it's has a lot of things that so common in Russian's deep down country - drinking, stupidity, naivenes and good and bad.The plot is really mixed up and actually really funny.Just to say a small outline - the film begins when one of the village people in Siberia finds a barrel floating in the river. The barrel turns out to be a barrel full of concentrated drinking spirit (alcohol). Then all things get havoc afte this moment and there is a mix up of local humor and even a politics.Bottomline: very funny film. But you have to understand a bit of Russian culture at least to get a feeling of it.
