Treasure Island cartoon from Soviet Union
This is a Russian cartoon based on the book by Astrid Lindgren "The World's Best Karlson". It tells the story of a boy who dreams of having a dog and a man with a propeller on his back. The book and the cartoon are overwhelmingly popular in Russia and Karlson's expression, such as (pardon the horrible Russian to English paraphrase) "Calm, just calm" and "a wellfed man at the zenith of his life" have become part of everyday Russian speech. Anyway, enough explaining for the non-Russian crowd. Smotriti na zdoroviye!
Thumbelina, the russian version from the 80's.
Bremenskieye Muzikanty is a great Russian cartoon based on the German "Bremen's Musicians" fairy tale, but with a decidedly hippie twist on the matter. The songs from this cartoon are pretty popular. Also, the bandits and their queen are a parody on another great Russian movie "The Caucasian prisoner".
Думаю нет в России человека, который не знает этот мультик. И думаю нет во всем мире человека, который, увидя его, не улыбнётся :))
