The Twelve Chairs (1970) (original) (raw)

In revolutionary Russia, an aging ex-nobleman of the czarist regime, Count I.M. Vorobyaninov has finally adjusted to life under the commissars. But when both he and the local priest, Father Fyodor, find out that a fortune in the count's family jewels is hidden in a chair's upholstery--the chair being one of a set of 12--they each separately return to Moscow to find the hidden fortune. Along the way, the count enlists the aid of a thief in the hilarious treasure hunt.
