Is it here? There're trees here,
a boulevard, a gray house.
Now look, fella!
You hard of hearing or what?
We said it was this kind of a tree.
A fir tree?
What do you mean, fir tree?
Didn't we say it was this way?
You've got to explain it better!
It's already costing us eight rubles.
- Was there a pond?
- No pond. Just puddles.
Was there a monument?
- There was a monument!
- Whose monument was it?
How should I know? Some gink...
- With a beard?
- No.
- Did he have sideburns?
- I don't remember that.
- He wore a jacket!
- was he seated?
- What?
- was he sitting down?
- Who?
- the gink you were talking about.
What a yokel!
How could he do that?
How could the poor guy sit down?
An iron monument like that?
Where to now?
Home I guess.
Why don't you buy a map? Knucklehead!
Here are some concert tickets.
Follow up your lead on the cloakroom.
I found it!
There it is, the fellow
with the jacket!
And over there is the tree!
Hello there,
don't you recognize me, girl?
No.
Now listen, Docent! I told you
I was going to turn legit.
- Didn't I?
- you did.
-Did I tell you you'd better not come?
- you did.
- Did I tell you I'd throw you out?
- did you?
I sure did.
So don't take it too hard.
- What have you got there?
- I need it.
Wipe your feet, please.
Close the door.
Say, this is a groove.
You like it?
Dinner is ready, fellas.
Sit down to chow, please.
Good work, Vassily.
Good old spuds, eh?
You can bake them
in the ashes, too.
When we went camping at the orphanage,
we put them in the ashes from a fire.
I had a funny experience at the front...
My unit camped near Kursk...
You at the front?
Hang up, will you?
You've been thrown down the stairs
real hard. Your memory's all gone.
I guess you're right.
Oh fir tree green...
Oh fir tree green...
Thy leaves are green forever.
They all are green
in summer's prime,
They all are green
in winter time.
Alexander Sanych,
let me have a little money, will you?
I'll buy a kerosene burner. Our coal
burner is no good. Might set a fire.
Yeah, you can have some cash.
It's gone!
I had it in my pocket.
Have you lost it?
- Might have dropped it.
- Nah, the taxi driver pinched it.
There was something about him
I didn't like from the start.
Yeah, we all look like wrong numbers.
- What do we do now?
- Got to pull a little job, Docent.
Shut up! Listen, Docent, I'm going
to look around the market with Raspy.
No!
All of us will go!
Hey, you over there, you can't go
that way. Go this way.
You might get hit by the snow.
We're shoveling snow offthe roof.
Don't go that way, granny!
Go this way!
Otherwise you get hit by the snow!
Come on.
- Good afternoon.
- Good afternoon.
- Could you tell me please...
- Splendid weather, isn't it?
- Yes, it's nice out.
- Go ahead. Goodbye.
- Goodbye.
- Go on.
The best weapon ofthe thief
is courtesy.
You take the third floor,
and you the fifth. Do it!
Why are you sighing like that?
- A thieving jackal, that's what I am.
- And What are you stealing?
Today I'm the lookout...
They've done the job!
I must go.
Hey you, stop!
Come back here!
Follow me, children, and hurry!
- Good afternoon, Yevgeny Ivanovich!
- Good afternoon, children.
- Halt!
- Excuse me.
Yevgeny Ivanovich!
Where are you going?
Just like a ballet!
The white swan!
- You've seen ballets?
- Yes.
Back in 1954 my wife and I
took a vacation
and visited Moscow.
She dragged me to the ballet
day and night.
- Where's your wife now?
- got No wife.
She's passed on?
I am dead.
- We have to lie low, Docent.
- Why?
The janitor got us cased. lfwe show
up in the street, we'll be snagged.
I want ladies' shoes...
Three pairs.
Size eleven, thirteen and fourteen.
Nice legs.
What time is it, miss?
- Quarter past six.
- Miss!
What's your name, miss?
- Tanya.
- My name's Fedya.
Stupid!
That's him!
That's the man who came to see you.
Do you want opera glasses?
They'll grab us here.
You
