I remember when I was 8 years old there was this movie, It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World, starring Spencer Tracy and an all-star cast. The zany comedy, a rambling epoch of slapstick errors and twists, it’s a bit of vintage Americana now.

On August, 18th Robert Redford is 75 years!The first time I have seen Redford, probably, somewhere in the late sixties. Why I speak «probably». Because then, a year at 68-69 I have looked a film «The Chase». But, probably, Marlon Brando’s charisma has completely eclipsed Redford.

To tell the truth, inclusion of this post into a category «Movie inspired» is not absolutely defensible. In this case has occurred exactly on the contrary: the events played in the Ural settlement Sagra, have cast to Sergey Dorenko associations with John Sturgess’s film «The Magnificent Seven».

Recently I has heard in news on the Euronews TV-channel that Jorge Semprún has died. I do not know, whether there was a similar message in news on the central Russian television channels: I do not look them because of continuous propagation. But I suspect that was not.
