In the original script of the movie "Moscow Doesn't Believe in Tears", this meeting was supposed to be musical, it was planned that Gosha and Kolia, who are heavily intoxicated, would sing loudly and soulfully the Cossack song "A young Cossack walks along the Don". However, during filming, the concept was changed, and it was decided to focus the viewer's attention on the quiet, but incredibly charismatic cut of a accompanied by a quiet male conversation. In the author's version, the character of Boris Smorchakov Nikolai seemed much more "suffered" from the sudden alcoholic marathon. Nikolai was sitting at the table wearing only a cloak over his naked body, and when he got up from the table to go get another bottle, it became clear that he had nothing under the cloak. The watchful Soviet censors saw this sight as beyond the bounds of decency. The management of the film studio said that a Soviet man could not look like that, and the footage of Boris Smorchakov rising from his chair was mercilessly cut, greatly reducing the dialogue of the actors. @ "Post-Soviet secular" comes from childhood!
