Someone loves action movies, someone likes melodramas. But there is also a category of viewers that is closest to Russian romantic comedies.
Soviet cinema
In Soviet cinema there are many comedies that are considered classic. Created at the time as family films, they were designed for a multi-purpose audience. Many of us remember and often quote the famous Gaida "Operation" Y "," Diamond Arm "," Prisoner of the Caucasus. But these are examples of the middle of the last century. Modern Russian romantic comedies have undergone a lot of changes. They are connected, first of all, with the contemporary issues raised in them and the new technologies used in the current film industry.

One of the projects belonging to this genre is the film “Status: Free” (directed by Pavel Ruminov). The main roles in it were played by Danila Kozlovsky and Lisa Boyarskaya. A pair of heroes in love look great together. For perfect happiness, they have all the components: youth, beauty, health.

In such situations, everyone behaves differently. Our hero manages to give up after his beloved a promise to return her in a week's time. But, it seems, the singing of serenades alone for the implementation of the plan will not be enough ...
Where to buy the dream tariff?

At some point, the entire scheme, carefully prepared by a friendly company, flies into tarta-ra-ry, and the situation gets out of control. But it is not for nothing that this is the film "Tariff" New Year "." In the end, the danger bypasses both Alena and Andrei.
