About This Movie

So, 'Who Are You Going to Mess With' is this quirky animation from '67 that really captures the essence of a guy who just doesn't fit the mold. Vasya, our bricklayer protagonist, is a rare breed in a world that pushes drinking and revelry. The pacing is intriguing, with a contemplative vibe that kind of meanders through his life choices and the pressures he faces from friends. The animation style is simple, yet there's something charming about it – it gives a surreal twist to the everyday. The performances, though voiced, have a raw quality that pulls you into Vasya's internal struggle. It's definitely a film that sparks discussions about societal norms and personal choices, and there's not much else quite like it.

This animation isn’t widely seen, making it somewhat obscure in collector circles. Its distribution in various formats has been limited; finding a good copy can be a challenge. Interest tends to be niche, focusing on animation enthusiasts and those who appreciate unconventional narratives. The film's unique stance on drinking culture and personal choice adds to its appeal for collectors looking to explore lesser-known works from the period.
