A humorous look at the potential consequences of living in such a bland and repetitive atmosphere can be found in the hugely popular Mosfilm production The Irony of Fate.
The film is traditionally broadcast in Russia and the former Soviet republics every New Year's Eve, and is widely regarded as a classic piece of Russian popular culture: Andrew Horton‏ and Michael Brashinsky likened its status to that held by Frank Capra's 1946 It's a Wonderful Life in the United States as a holiday staple.
