That link goes to Mosfilm movies. There where a dozen or so other studios, and some of them have their archives up as well. For example, - Lenfilm: https://www.youtube.com/user/LenfilmVideo https://www.youtube.com/user/LenfilmVideo - Odessa Film Studio: https://www.youtube.com/user/OdessAnimationStudio https://www.youtube.com/user/OdessAnimationStudio

Especially iconic is the “The Irony of Fate”[1], which is still traditionally watched on New Years each year. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Irony_of_Fate https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Irony_of_Fate
