The article is published to commemorate Mikhail Romm's centenary. By analyzing the film "Boule de Suif", the well-known Soviet filmmaker's debut, the author tries to reveal the transformation of the meanings of Maupassant's short story in a certain historic, social and ideological context, to show how the film reflected not only the ideological cliches of the time, but the wise insight of the director who had always developed in himself the astuteness of vision and sense of time.
