A Few Days from the Life of I.I. Oblomov

A Few Days from the Life of I. I. Oblomov (Russian: Несколько дней из жизни И. И. Обломова, translit. Neskolko dney iz zhizni I. I. Oblomova) is a Soviet historical comedy/drama film directed by Nikita Mikhalkov. It was released by Mosfilm in 1980. The film's plot is based on the novel Oblomov (Russian: Обломов), written by Ivan Goncharov, which tells the story of Ilya Ilyich Oblomov, a middle-aged nobleman living in 19th-century Saint Petersburg. This central character exemplifies the superfluous man concept found in 19th-century Russian literature.
