About The Elevator Leaves on Schedule
Who among us hasn't been stuck in an elevator? This is what happened to Evgeniy, who did not reach his mistress’s floor by some meter. The rescue service, fire crews, ambulance, police and neighbors called are unable to repair the elevator. The unexpected salvation of the would-be lover, drunk from the cognac and champagne he had stored up, comes in the person of the heroine’s husband.
Directed by Mikhail Kokshenov, The Elevator Leaves on Schedule leans on a strong ensemble — Mikhail Kokshenov, Valeriy Garkalin, Natalya Krachkovskaya — 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 2002.
