Reviews
- Andrei Plakhov: Another landmark work on the ideological shelf should be considered the Tight Knot by Mikhail Schweitzer, where the criticism of the collective-farm order was clearly too acute for the Khrushchev Thaw to begin with. The film was savagely rewired and released under the idiotic title Sasha Enters Life, which forever discouraged Schweitzer from making a keen social film, and he devoted himself to screen versions of the classics.[8]
- Maya Turovskaya: Tabakov with a good and authentic artlessness conveyed the first desperate grief and uncontrollable immediate joy of his seventeen years, his infantile maturity, touching disturbances of the first failed love and breaking boyish principles, all watercolor and tender play of a barely feminine, shy and direct character. But the actor in it has not yet groped his theme.[9]
