About This Movie
I Wish You Success is an intriguing drama from 1980 that dives into the life of Pyotr Severin, a biologist whose shift to statistics brings him a heap of self-doubt. The pacing is deliberate, reflecting the protagonist's inner turmoil and existential crisis. The atmosphere feels quite heavy, almost claustrophobic at times, as Pyotr grapples with his choices. The film explores broader themes of ambition and the sacrifices one makes while chasing success, all wrapped in a somewhat bleak yet introspective narrative. Performances, especially in the quieter moments, really convey the weight of disappointment. It’s not flashy; it’s more subdued and contemplative, which gives it a unique edge among other dramas of its time. Definitely a film that lingers with you.
