Moscow on the Hudson


Film Appreciation

I remember watching this movie on HBO, when I was little. It was a big deal back then to have HBO, especially for us who lived in the Rio Grande Valley, 4 hours south of San Antonio, Texas.

Moscow on the Hudson, relased on April 6, 1984, was a American romantic comedy-drama film. It was written and directed by Paul Mazursky, who was known for dramatic comedies that dealt with modern social issues. The film starred the late and great Robin Williams, and Maria Conchita Alonso.

The story is of a man who defects while on a circus tour from the Soviet Union. It's a film worth watching, and can very easily be applied to today's social and political environment.
