За то, что Вы больны — увы! — не мной

from “Ирония судьбы”, which I haven’t seen for years, until someone on the internet reminded me. *sigh*

    Ah, Yes! a lovely setting of the Tsvetaeva poem, omitting quite aptly the middle stanza.

    Мне нравится еще, что вы при мне
    Спокойно обнимаете другую,
    Не прочите мне в адовом огне
    Гореть за то, что я не вас целую.
    Что имя нежное мое, мой нежный, не
    Упоминаете ни днем, ни ночью – всуе…
    Что никогда в церковной тишине
    Не пропоют над нами: аллилуйя!

    Whoa. I didn’t even notice. The middle stanza is my favorite.

    I have a sentimental love for the movie. Not sure if I should be ashamed of that, ;)

    Ashamed? Certainly not! I am reminded of the wonderful warning of the American poet Richard Hugo that “unless we are not at least risking sentimentality, we’re not fully human.”

    Ironia Sud’bi (Life’s Irony) indeed! I think you will love this as much as I did: Hall of Mirrors, though not for shattering our lovely illusions. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6M33FJpbq7o&feature=related
