About The Hero of Her Romance
Oil tycoon Victor, nicknamed the Chief, comes to Moscow from the distant North. He is accompanied by a cunning rogue nicknamed Turkey and a big guy nicknamed Turnip. And what new Russian doesn’t like to relax in the capital on a merchant scale? And away we go: restaurants, casinos, strip clubs, girls. One day, Chef saw the young singer Olga Kachalova on TV and realized that she was the girl of his dreams. And as you know, when there is no money, dreams come true.
Directed by Mikhail Kokshenov, Vladimir Mun, The Hero of Her Romance leans on a strong ensemble — Valeriy Garkalin, Mikhail Kokshenov, Aleksei Buldakov — 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 comedy titles of 2001.
