Черевички (1928): reparto, argumento y streaming

Released in 1928, Черевички is a fantasía film directed by Pyotr Chardynin.

What it’s about. To justify the fantastic adventures of the blacksmith Vakula, the authors of the film “simplify” Gogol’s plot: Vakula, having drunk too much at Patsiuk’s place, falls asleep. And he sees this dream where the devil takes him to the palace of Catherine II in Saint-Petersburg; and there Vakula takes off the little shoes of the Russian empress to give them to his fiancée Oksana. And, really, drunk Vakula takes off the shoes while sleeping… but from Patsiuk. Later, when Vakula unwraps the package with the “royal slippers” in front of Oksana, he finds only Patsiuk’s dirty shoes there.

Who’s in it. Черевички stars Peter Tsikhomovich, G. Galina, Anastasii Symonov and A. Kharitonov, among others.
