"Комиссия по расследованию" (1978)
A negative male character (Boyarskiy is acting), to a female engineer (positive character):
- Your eyes are beautiful, and your voice is charming. Is not that enough? Why would you need a career in engineering? You should use your strengths to fulfil your purpose!
- What is my purpose?
- In the end, the purpose of every woman is related only to her man.
- ???!
...
- OK, I am not your mom, but if she did not tell you, I will! Here is what will happen in five years: your boss, an old scientist, only needs you so there is a beautiful girl in his team. He will retire, and his place will be taken by a young and ambitious manager who will need good engineers. By that time you'll be older, and will loose both career and will not find a husband.
- I am not a beautiful girl in a team, I have all the required skills! And you are a moron.
- And you are a walking computer!

The movie was filmed at about the time when in West Germany they just allowed women to work without a written approval from a husband.
