Real

Scene was shot Troshkin comes to the kindergarten, filmed in this building, because the director of the picture lived in the area of Vernadsky Avenue and its environs and loved these places. Kindergarten was located at the address: Udaltsova Street, 31. The house at 49 Vernadsky Avenue, where Troshkin lived, was literally 200 meters away from the kindergarten, but it is shown that the main character got to it by public transport. The creators of the movie filmed the episode so that the audience would get the impression that Troshkin worked quite far from home. Otherwise, Professor Maltsev would not have been able to accidentally meet Evgeny Ivanovich on the bus and track him down to the kindergarten, which would have led to an inconsistent scene.

Real

Scene was shot in what is now Lermontovsky Square in Moscow. It is this sculpture (the Lermontov monument) that appears in the picture as the famous "man in a jacket". The character of Saveliy Kramarov tried to explain to the capital cab driver, where to take the heroes of the picture - "well, there is still a man in a jacket". And in response to the driver's clarification - "Sitting?" (that is, the statue is depicted in a sitting position or not), the Soviet criminal who escaped from the camp condescendingly uttered a phrase that has become part of folklore - "Who will put him in jail? He's a monument...".
