and then a little baritone chorus theme lets you know Something Russian is happening in the movie
A nice glass of tea? Horrible totalitarian regime? Submarine diving? Cats in snow? Liberally dumping dill on your pelmeni? Doesn’t matter, it gets baritone chorus.
I’d wonder whether anyone’s ever done the soundtrack equivalent for Americans. Like when we show up in the movie there’s a little twangy guitar motif with the vocalist singing GUUUUNS MAHHHH TRUCCKKK, and then we’re back to the normal soundtrack.
