Oh my! I am not familiar with this show , but it reminds me very much of a show we had here in the U.S., during the 1980s. It was called Faerie Tale Theatre. Creepy, weird, disturbing, and awesome all at the same time! :-D
In retrospect I think I love the person responsible for the Norwegian children's broadcast - because they kept showing things like these. There were also some incredible surreal cartoons from Czechoslovakia and the like. And of course I love Youtube for making this all available again. Hee.
HEEEEEEE! I REMEMBER THIS! It was so popular and movie theatres were full and I was 10(??). Mother Goat is kicking ass indeed - it is one of most famous Russian actresses Ludmila Gurchenko (type of lady who managed to look HOT when she was 55 and was a great singer too :D). And wolf! Boyarsky! he was a pop star-film-star at the time and he was indeed sexy. This brings back memories.
Yay! I was hoping you would know about this film. Mother Goat is such an awesome character - and all the wonderful skating and dancing in this film! I didn't know about the actors, but that is so great. Especially about the wolf. Hee.
And if you're interested then, as far as I can tell, the film is available in Russian here. But since my Russian is pretty much non-existent it is a bit hard to say. ;)
Oh; I love this! I got to see it again this year, after not having seen it since I was a child. I agree with you that mrs. Rada is amazing - she is so strong, yet vulnerable, and her chemistry with Suru is thrilling...:)

Hello! Always great to meet other people who have seen and know this film. It's interesting what you say about the dubbing, and great news to hear about a DVD release. I must try to track that down.
the kids chuck stones at him, and the goat mother automatically thinks he's the enemy... her kiddies are, of course, well behaved at all times.
Hee, yes. And even though he threatens to eat them he never does. Instead he resorts to blackmail.
Wolfie and the Goat Mother, definitely had a thing going on
*g* Glad I'm not the only one thinking that.
I've seen the 10th Kingdom actually, and I really liked it. I must admit I thought the Wolf was the best aspect of the show. ;)
