Okay, that's enough, I guess I went overboard. They are indeed the seven deadly sins, sculptures representing greed, which is obvious, and envy and anger, which is less obvious, as presented from the perspective of a character who doesn't understand art. However, the specific sins don't really matter. In my opinion, the first work, at least in two parts, dedicated to religious themes that comes to mind is the (Divine) Comedy by Dante (Alighieri). The second part, Purgatory, is dedicated, among other things, to the seven circles where repentant sinners serve their punishment. *Just don't read it; the work is valuable for historians, not as literature.* Another mention of the Divine Comedy appears together with the description of "Dead Souls," saying that Gogol used it as a basis. Well, that's it, prepare your slippers and dirty rags, you can start now....

I was thinking about Gogol, but... he burned the second part, didn't he?

Damn, I was looking for descriptions of the characters themselves.

Yes. Well, it just doesn't occur to me. Because, to be honest, I'm only familiar with it in passing. And I'm not planning on reading it anytime soon, even if you force me, I've already tried ))) Yes, the meaning is clear. I allowed myself to use Google to find the first mention of the seven deadly sins, at that time I was already seriously doubting the correctness of this approach. I found it - Pope Gregory I. There was also something written about Thomas Aquinas, and that in the Orthodox tradition there are eight deadly sins... And then... Ugh, on Wikipedia it was written directly about Dante and, worse, about the second part. I didn't think the question was so easily searchable and ended up ruining the game for myself... It happens.

Guess again.

Here's a simple question.

In the Moscow region, there is a store called "Palitra." What colors are the letters "A" in the store's sign, and why?

Orange and purple, a rainbow.

Yes, that's right. Make a wish.

The main thing is to notice the question in time.

One acting school, intended for gifted children, has a noteworthy name. This name differs by only one letter from the name of a famous director.
State this name.

Google might interfere, so it's better not to use it. And it's not even needed here.

Let it be Dai, or something like that.

One could list directors for a long time, although I don't know them. But it's probably better to approach it from the other end. There can't be many names for an acting school.

Also, provide an interesting formulation; it's probably not without reason.

So, we should probably exclude Russians with surnames ending in -ov, -in, etc. What's left? A bunch of foreigners.

Let it be. Give me something.

Gaida – dai.
No. And there’s only one letter different. Or maybe I didn’t understand which director you’re talking about, Master.

For example, Cameron. But I guess that's not right.

Or maybe I'm wrong, and it's a specific name there, not a last name.

For example, Cameron. But probably not.

Incorrect.
