It's all well and good that Shtsjors without his sidekick Vasil Bozhenko it would have been boring. The moody Cossack is a real mood maker. When the bourgeoisie has gathered in a theater for a fundraiser, Bozhenko is prompted by a commissioner. He angrily shouts: "Stop this, I'm not an actor."
He says goodbye with a beautiful, pathetic, Ukrainian lament.
Shchors will eventually be liquidated on Trotsky's orders (obviously not in the film!).
