Oh, the latest tumblr fandom? That movie you saw through your mother's fingers on TCM when you were 11. I feel like we have the VHS somewhere.
Anyway Katya was part of my bisexual awakening, don't @ me.

I can’t resist not drawing Katya. Not that I’m really into Goncharov (1973) or anything.

Mostly ignored the Goncherovization of tumblr because business crime movies bore me, but my one thought was: oh, it's tumblr, they're going to be obsessing about the thing
you know, the one thing that everyone knew about the 1973 movie Goncharov in the several decades it existed but almost nobody watched it. that ONE thing? But apparently no?
So, for you young folks who didn't learn this by pre-internet osmosis: the one thing everyone knew about Goncharov when I was little in the 80s was that Katya in Goncharov? played by Cybill Shepherd? Isn't played by Cybill Shepherd.
At least, not a lot of the time, and not in certain key scenes.
There were a bunch of rumors about why, that ranged from Shepard being injured on set to contract shenanigans to an actual fistfight between Cybill Shepherd and John Cazale, but the upshot was that she wasn't available for a big chunk of the shooting, so in long shots and over-the-shoulder shots throughout the film -- basically any time you don't see a full-face close-up of Cybill Shepherd -- Katya's actually being played by a someone else. Mostly her stunt double I assume.
That's why so much of the filming of Katya is done at those weird stylish angles -- necessity was the mother of actually doing something interesting with how you filmed your female lead.
But the thing I thought Tumblr was going to fixate on is that in two scenes, the one where she's talking to Andrey across the hood of the car, when she leaves her glove there, and the one at the end when she leaves after shooting? When you can't see her face, that's actually Marissa Mell (who played Sofia) in a blonde wig.
It got into the news because someone was suing to get Mell officially credited as Katya for those scenes, and it was a whole weird thing because it turned out the person doing it was nothing to do with Marissa Mell and was actually someone with a grudge against Matteo JWHJ0517?
me: oh, tumblr's going to go crazy talking about how this little production hiccup is actually a genius filmic act of identity porn and how in those moments Katya is becoming Sofia and blah blah blah. tumblr's so silly.
tumblr: so about the flowers and the architecture and the bridge scene
me: ... TUMBLR LOOK AT THE IDENTITY PORN!
(also I'm assuming at least 10% of the Goncharov fic is about Katya leaving her glove on the car being interpreted as a challenge for an actual duel with Andrey for Goncharov's hand? Right? I mean, tumblr, come on, I believe in your powers of wild extrapolation. They left it right there for you to pick up... )

Old Movie Roast! "The Long, Hot Summer" (1985)
Tumblr media
primary themes are:
if your guy isn't satisfying you, have an affair with a local creep. there's a 50/50 chance it'll work out okay!
your daddy is a mean old coot who gave you ptsd. now get over it
This film feels like a rushed group project where you end up tacking stuff onto a poster board and submit it as is
halfway through the story stops making any kind of sense. i swear there are at least two missing scenes that would explain what the hell is happening, but if they existed they never aired. scenes skip around, there is no concept of the passage of time, and then there's a car crash scene that makes no sense, and some plot lines go absolutely nowhere. i just...i just want to understand what is going on???
the score cannot decide if this is a romance or a thriller, the setting cannot decide if it's the '50s or the '80s, every male character is severely unhinged while every woman deserves better, and the main love interest gives off stalker vibes but also sad loser boy vibes
All that aside, Judith Ivey has some of the best lines,
"I've spent my whole life around men who push, and shove, and shout, and think they can make anything happen by acting that way. So I'm not anxious to have another one about the place."
Overall the acting was good given what they had to work with. The story had some believable ups and downs, and several character interaction were enjoyable.
but if you want to see Don Johnson in, not one, but TWO "shirt-ripped-exactly-at-the-titties" scenes then do i have the movie for you!
i give this movie 2/5 late-night snacks and you can watch it on Tubi or Youtube for free w/ ads
