Title: In Soviet Russia, Raymond Loves You
Post by: Fake from State Jarm on March 04, 2012, 04:17:56 am

So I was flipping through the channels recently and stumbled on the tail end of this movie on HBO called 'exporting raymond' about phil rosenthal creating a russian version of everybody loves raymond. I don't know exactly why, but this is hilarious. It's full of awkwardness and culture clashing and exotic absurdity, and a lot of the russians he's trying to work with are just completely oblivious to the comedic direction he's going, and he has to convince them through a translator while they give him their dubious russian facial expressions. you guys know anything about it?

I never really followed 'everybody loves raymond' but I think I might consider following the russian version.

edit: also pretty insightful about show-business in general. here's the trailer
