Ivan Vasilyevich Changes His Profession (Leonid Gaidai, 1973)

In early 1970's Moscow, scientist Shurik toils in his apartment trying to create a working time-machine. He is dedicated to the task, so dedicated he barely registers it when his wife leaves him. One day, Shurik successfully transports himself back to the time of Ivan The Terrible, taking with him a burglar and the superintendent of his building. While Shurik makes it back to the present, there is one problem: the other two are left in the 1500's and Ivan the Terrible has come home with him. So begins a raucous tale combining science-fiction, comedy and history: Leonid Gaidai 's 'Ivan Vasilievich Changes His Profession.' Director Leonid Gaidai Stars Yuriy Yakovlev, Leonid Kuravlyov, Aleksandr Demyanenko. Subs: English & Portuguese YouTube link: https://youtu.be/DECBMVjwcg4 Copyright-protected content.
