[Cz-L] GQ magazine: "Chernovtsy was a kind of notorious backwater"

Mila Kunis was featured as a "Knockout of the Year" in the Men of the
Year issue of the GQ magazine
(http://www.gq.com/moty/2011/mila-kunis-gq-men-of-the-year-issue).
Speaking about her place of origin, Kunis tried to be
self-deprecating, but the reporter took it at face value, and as a
result the GQ readers are left with tragically inadequate
representation of our hometown:

_In Soviet context, Chernovtsy was a kind of notorious backwater. "It
wasn't, like, a full-on village," Kunis protests with a giggle. "We
had a movie theater. Streets were paved. We had a normal school." She
enjoyed those fine amenities until second grade, when her parents
moved the family to L.A._
