I'm getting married tonight!

Braginsky, Emil, Ryazanov, Eldar: I'm Getting Married Tonight! ; Musical comedy, adapted by László Tabi. It relies on the classic tools of comedy, but the basic idea it develops touches on a modern, everyday problem. All over the world, in the Soviet Union as well as in Hungary, new housing estates are mushrooming, with identical gray panel houses, with apartments with the same layout in the houses, and with standardized furniture in the apartments. The basic idea, the classic comic source, is born from the ad absurdum stretching of this idea, in addition to the role reversal – the location reversal. The protagonist of the work, who is put on a plane instead of his friend while drunk, is sent from Moscow to Leningrad. The taxi driver takes him to the address given, and since there is a Lenin Street in Leningrad, and there are just as many apartment buildings on Lenin Street as in Moscow, nothing is more natural than for our protagonist to open the 5th door on the 3rd floor of house number 125 and find himself “home.” This basic idea is further spiced up by the time of the plot (it is New Year's Eve, the night of absurdities), and a naive but well-complicated love story.
