In the beloved and familiar to each of us Soviet film comedy “Ivan Vasilyevich Changes His Profession” there are many film blunders. Some of these movie bloopers are waiting for you further.

“Keep your money in a savings bank! If, of course, you have them...” But Georges Miloslavsky is leafing through Anton Semenovich Shpak’s secretary, not wads of money, but bonds.

The thief exchanges his clothes in Shpak’s apartment for the owner’s jacket, pants and shirt. He takes his jacket with him, but decided to leave his shirt and pants at the crime scene?

When moving the tape recorder to Shurik’s apartment, the color of the reel changes:

“Hang up!”... And the handset returns to the device on the scaffolding :)

In adjacent frames of one scene, the color of the liquid in the time machine and the filling of the aquarium change dramatically.

A fallen helmet returns to its place on its own:

Is the house manager Ivan Vasilyevich Bunsha not only hiding in the palace chest, but also actively tossing and turning in it?

In the adjacent shots, the glass magically becomes empty and vodka has to be poured into it again.

Just a fun fact. Georges Miloslavsky turns out to be a repeat offender, released after his last three-year sentence in January 1973. And in six months he managed to grow hair and a mustache.

Vanishing dagger.

Different scenes feature different balconies of the same apartments of the main characters. Moreover, this is clearly not the 7th floor of a 12-story building where all the events take place...

Different numbers of ambulances in one scene. And one more detail: the police arrive to investigate the theft of traffic police cars.

Some interesting facts.

Kuravlev's hero, seating the impostor on the throne, places an orb and a scepter in his hands (while checking with a certain ancient fresco on the vault of the throne room).

But these symbols of power appeared in Russia after the death of Ivan the Terrible IV. We look below at his large state seal. God bless her, with the comedy film... In the famous film by Sergei Eisenstein “Ivan the Terrible” there is the same inaccuracy...

In the elevator (“This is what the life-giving cross does!”) the king crosses himself with three fingers. Until 1653, Orthodox Christians crossed themselves with two fingers.

In the scene of interrogation by police officers, Ivan Vasilyevich answers the question about his year of birth:
“One thousand five hundred and thirty-third from the Nativity of Christ.”, although Ivan the Terrible was born on August 25, 1530,
and the chronology “from the Nativity of Christ” was introduced by Peter I only in 1700.
Before this, Rus' used chronology “from the creation of the world.”
Thus, Ivan Vasilyevich’s answer should have sounded like “Summer seven thousand thirty-eight from the creation of the world.”
