Censored

[edit]

At the XXII Congress of the CPSU on October 24, 1961, Mikhail Suslov condemned Ryazanov's film. After Suslov’s performance, the film was stopped everywhere and then banned. The ban was lifted only in 1988 by a decision of the Goskino of the USSR and the conflict committee of the Union of Cinematographers of the USSR, after which the film was again shown in cinemas.[4]
