Probably, our kids do not believe that their parents did such and such stringent employed in early childhood, too, had their own idols. And we really understand their fans' sighs and tears on the portraits of Selena Gomez and Daniel Radcliffe.

As for the boys - a special conversation secretly in love were Natasha Guseva, a girl with supernatural good looks and an enigmatic smile, the polls all the boys of the Union. When McGee novel "One Hundred Years Ahead" has received the vast majority of children's voices in the survey, "the film adaptation of the children's works would you like to see?", The question arose, who take on the role of Alice Selezneva. What was needed was a girl with an atypical appearance, unlike the usual Moscow schoolgirls. The Commission chose a dozen contenders, but no one claimed the role, until by some happy coincidence, the studio does not appear unrealistic shy girl with eyes.

The role in the film "Guest from the Future" in a moment made Natasha Guseva idol of millions. Tellingly, the girl was shot after that in several projects, but none of them had half the success. That is, of course, it was not in it.

On the success of the film "worked" and Alex Fomkin, who played Kohl Gerasimov. The boy was certainly talented - he played just such an average schoolboy sloven and adventurer all parts of the body, what was needed. It harmoniously looked in the frame with their bottles of yogurt, as in workaday, Soviet-style, from its shape even now invincible Soviet blowing carefree childhood.

In addition, the very well have been picked up the performers of other students - and Alex Ants as Bori Messerer, and Simon Buzgan as Coley Sadowski, Ilya Naumov and the role of Queen Fima, and Mariana Ionesyan who played Alice's best friend Julia Gribkova. It is interesting that almost none of the young actors did not pursue a career in film.

Child actors, according to the singer starring helped very experienced adult actors - Vyacheslav innocent and Mikhail Kononov, Yevgeny Gerasimov, Georgy Burkov, Boris Shcherbakov, Vladimir Spout, Talyzina Valentine, Natalia Varley, and others. In general, the director Pavel Gerasimov certainly knew how to work with children, able to create a set of fun creative atmosphere.

Separately, of course, is to talk about the music in the film. The song "Beautiful far" was not just a hit - it became a sort of anthem of the future for all generations of spectators. Theme Song wonder clearly fits into the film accompanies the heroes in all their adventures. It seems "far from perfect" - a perfect product, but, according to the composer, came up with it easily and quickly. Eugene Krylatov fun assured that "any composer, received words like" Beautiful far ", would write his best song." And he added: "But my care would be better." It's a shame that many of the songs memorable angelic voice singer Tatyana Daskovsky, and she was not even listed in the credits.

Of course, the film is worth seeing all those who have watched it many times, and especially those who have not yet had time to look. We need to look for several reasons:

Firstly, it is beautifully illustrated encyclopedia of the life of Soviet schoolchildren to help our children understand better than their parents lived as a child, as they were dreaming about, look at Moscow-eighties, a smile to the way saw the future of people living in those times. And we, their parents, the film will give a few hours of sweet nostalgia for childhood, for himself that bygone pores.

Second, the movie preaches the eternal truth that will never become obsolete: that friendship helps us to overcome the most difficult obstacles that good always triumphs over evil and that all those who will come after us, have to be better than we are - that's the law of nature, the law of evolution. Looking at the events of the film from the height of the come of the future, and sometimes feel sad that we do not condone their little notions of themselves as themselves in the future.
