When I Will Become a Giant

Eight-grader Petya Kopeikin, despite his short stature and nondescript appearance, is constantly in the spotlight. Petya is noble, witty, well versed in literature, he writes wonderful poems. Kopeikin has long been secretly in love with his classmate Masha Goroshkina, and she is passionate about the new student from 9 "A" Kolya Kristallov. Masha tells Petya about her feelings and asks him to hand over a note to Kolya. Deeply worried from unrequited love, Petya not only doesn't stand in the way of a happier rival, but even helps him win Masha's heart. He wants to prove that courage and honor were not only inherent in the times of “musketeer” novels, but exist in our time. Petya chooses to follow the example of the hero of the famous play Edmond Rostan and in his actions copies Cyrano de Bergerac.

It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

This seems almost like Fred Kites idealised idea of Russia.It has to be said that the acting is rather wooden and the story is rather boring. Anna Sten is playing out the fag end of her career.Henry Wilcoxon is stolid and is obviously passing time till the next De Mille epic came along.Korda and Dietrich showed how such a film could be made with Knight Without Armour.

This sub strata of the Russian Ex-pat community made movies wherever the opportunity presented. This time they struck out. As with ANNA KARENINA and QUEEN OF SPADES, the sight of so British actors trying to convince us that they are mad Slavs is off putting. The on-screen world is too good a match for the society dramas and silly ass comedies the English studios rolled out at the time. The leads did better in other films but here the script and studio-bound production give them little to work with and it's hard to develop much sympathy with their sufferings.The brief cavalry montage and a court room finale, where Francis L. Sullivan of course dominates, manage to catch attention briefly.
