The film about Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn is remarkably devoid of any anti-American sentiment. Ironically, its illusion of reality is broken only once, when the director chides a Soviet, not an American, weakness. Confronting the corpse of Dr. Robinson in the graveyard, the tramp is unable to remember having killed him and mumbles, "It must have been the vodka."
