Third Time Lucky

Older but wealthiest man in the village Života waits for his Russian bride, but when his freshly single nephew Dragoljub arrives he falls for the girl and takes her away. Nevertheless, wedding happens. Života marries local psychic, Dragoljub marries the Russian girl and his son marries his own girlfriend.

Directed by Dragoslav Lazić, Third Time Lucky leans on a strong ensemble — Radoš Bajić, Velimir Živojinović, Anja Popović — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1995.
