What happens

Hello, I'm Your Aunt! (Russian: Здравствуйте, я ваша тётя!, romanized: Zdravstvuyte, ya vasha tyotya!) is a Soviet 1975 comedy directed by Viktor Titov loosely based on the 1892 play Charley's Aunt by Brandon Thomas. Produced by T/O Ekran. The film was an immense hit; many lines from the film (e.g., "I am an old soldier and don't know words of love") became catch phrases. The film's title is a Russian idiom expressing surprise or displeasure. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
