YMMV / While The Clock Chimes

• Hilarious in Hindsight: In the 1977 film adaptation, Mikhail Kononov plays a minor villain named Rodent. Later, in 1984, he would play the part he is now probably best remembered for – that of a major villain called Rat.
• Tear Jerker: The ending states that poor Tseblion is still wandering the world, searching for his son and begging him to come back.
