The Russians Are Coming! The Russians Are Coming! (1966)

Amidst the icy tensions of the Cold War, the captain of a Soviet submarine finds himself and his vessel marooned near Gloucester Island, Massachusetts. Driven by curiosity, he ventures too close to the American shoreline, resulting in an unexpected maritime fiasco. In a desperate attempt to free their submarine, Lieutenant Rozanov commands a nine-man team ashore, their mission to procure a powerful motor boat. Their path leads them to a quaint summer house, home to New Yorker writer Walt Whittaker who is enjoying a peaceful weekend retreat with his family. The tranquility is abruptly shattered when Whittaker encounters the Russians and jumps to the alarming conclusion of an invasion. As this unsettling news leaks, it stokes the fires of hysteria and paranoia among the peaceful villagers. Meanwhile, the two English-speaking crewmen and seven Russian sailors tread on foreign land, struggling to blend in. Their peculiar antics and foreign demeanor fuel the town's conviction of an invasion, turning the tranquil island into a hotbed of Cold War panic. The once serene Massachusetts island transforms into a microcosm of global tensions, teetering on the brink of chaos. "The Russians Are Coming! The Russians Are Coming!" is a comic symphony of misunderstandings and cross-cultural blunders, where the fate of a small village, a stranded submarine, and potentially, world peace, hangs in the balance.
