It looks Cyrillic to me, though I do not understand Russian. Can you explain what the problem is?

Yaroslav Grigoriev,

If I understand you correctly, the words spelled out in cyrillic do not appear to be real Russian words. I would have to get out my Romanov's Russian English dictionary to be certain, but the words do not look right.

I would have expected something more like Простая гісторыя

Што гэта? Гэта не рускую мову.

You see, the correct spell of "The Straight Story" in russian translation looks like "Честная история" or "Простая история". This is visually understandable in Cyrillic.

Would you like to make the correction yourself? The method is a little complicated, but here is an explanation:
