Goncharov 50th gonchiversary bash !!!!!! 50 years with the greatest mafia movie ever made, crazy how fast time goes.
GONCHAROV (1973) Dir. Martin Scorsese.
[enters IMGflip] [emerges 3 hours later with Goncharov (1973) and The Goncharov Trilogy book series memes] Please appreciate what I do for you with nothing more than a vague recollection from reading the books as a teenager and only recently finding out there was an entire movie made from them, apparently.
can't believe in a month it will be a one-year anniversary since tumblr reintroduced the greatest mafia movie ever made that was lost in the sands of time, Goncharov (1973).
OUT OF TIME
Ladies lock up your sons and husbands, Katya home!
i’m so glad we’re finally talking about Goncharov 1973 because Katya... Katya Goncharov... all i’m saying that dress up scene does shit to me
In a way Goncharov (1973) really is the greatest gangster movie ever made. There are thousands of people dreaming up their own versions of this movie. With more plot threads than could ever actually fit into a 2 hour movie. No actual film could ever compare to the imagination of a million strangers and that's weirdly beautiful.

I'm loving all the articles about Goncharov in honor of the film's 50th anniversary but I have to say the way so many reviews fixate on Katya's appearance and wardrobe feels a bit reductive.
Yes she's very beautiful. Yes her looks and iconic white dress are important to the contextualization, arc and symbolism of her character. But the same can be said of Andrey or of Goncharov himself. And you don't see the same hyperfocus on their looks in the anniversary retrospectives and reviews coming out today. Feels a bit gendered to me...
