The rare coming-of-age film that transcends cultures
18 July 2022
"Goodbye, Petrushka" was a real treat to see, especially in front of a sold out audience at Chelsea Cinepolis. Lots of fun, quirky, and offbeat humor that nicely complements the main character's story arc. The whole cast is tremendous and entertaining and rarely do you see classical music used so often and so effectively throughout a feature film. This is clearly done by a director who gets how people speak, act, while never losing sight of the past (i.e., puppets, figure skating, etc.). Not to mention it's an accurate, poignant depiction of characters discovering themselves and their desires in their 20s/30s.
