1
00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:18,400
This picture was for me
character formation, directorial

2
00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:24,380
character, which implies very
great willpower, perseverance, skill

3
00:00:24,380 --> 00:00:30,420
in achieving the goal. I'm just from this
The painting came out a different person. And this

4
00:00:30,420 --> 00:00:32,800
there was a struggle, it was not for life, but for
death.

5
00:00:44,660 --> 00:00:49,080
It is believed that my first artistic
film "Carnival Night". But it's not

6
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,000
quite like that. I would even say that completely
not like that.

7
00:00:52,940 --> 00:00:57,660
In general, the title is “feature film”
was adopted in Soviet times. By

8
00:00:57,660 --> 00:01:01,200
-I think it’s called a “fiction film.”
Because what was called

9
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:05,379
artistic, not every film
could be considered artistic.

10
00:01:06,020 --> 00:01:08,420
At least until...

11
00:01:08,830 --> 00:01:13,590
On a carnival night I had another one
work at Mosfilm that happened

12
00:01:13,590 --> 00:01:17,710
in this way. I worked at the central
documentary film studios, where

13
00:01:17,710 --> 00:01:23,250
got there after graduating from VGIK. And five years
I filmed there and made film magazines, and

14
00:01:23,250 --> 00:01:27,210
all sorts of news of the day, and pioneers, and
Soviet sports made several pictures.

15
00:01:27,810 --> 00:01:33,790
And while making the last tapes, I drew
attention that I seem to be drawn to

16
00:01:33,790 --> 00:01:36,590
dramatizations. And in general I felt like
chronicle.

17
00:01:37,820 --> 00:01:42,980
There were very stamped ones there
texts, and she was very official.

18
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:48,200
An official form of art, so it’s possible
say.

19
00:01:48,580 --> 00:01:54,020
I realized that I am drawn to the artistic
cinema. And then one day, returning from

20
00:01:54,020 --> 00:01:57,500
studio to the metro, I walked along with
directed by Leonid Christos. I told him

21
00:01:57,500 --> 00:01:59,400
complained that this is so and so.

22
00:02:00,580 --> 00:02:03,860
Tasty to me. He said I have
wonderful idea. Now Matsfilm

23
00:02:03,860 --> 00:02:07,920
suggested to Sergei Nikolaevich Gurov, this
famous documentary director, too

24
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:13,060
very middle-aged, doing a film review about
initiative of labor reserves.

25
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:18,480
And he had a recent heart attack, he lives
after birth, he needs a young partner. I

26
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,100
I will advise him to contact you.

27
00:02:21,380 --> 00:02:24,120
And indeed, the next day
Gurov spoke to me.

28
00:02:24,470 --> 00:02:28,410
I said it would be my pleasure. And on
the very next day Gorov talked with

29
00:02:28,410 --> 00:02:31,750
Pyrev. He immediately made a decision. A
Pyrev was director at that time

30
00:02:31,750 --> 00:02:36,410
Mosfilm. And so completely
wonderful, unpredictable for me

31
00:02:36,410 --> 00:02:40,410
transition from documentary to
artistic happened literally behind

32
00:02:40,410 --> 00:02:41,410
two days.

33
00:02:42,230 --> 00:02:47,130
I didn’t walk, I didn’t hit the thresholds. That's all
it happened as if by itself.

34
00:02:49,070 --> 00:02:53,150
Well, that means it’s time to tell the right person
something like that to a person, he didn’t even caress,

35
00:02:53,150 --> 00:02:54,250
that it was very necessary.

36
00:02:54,930 --> 00:02:59,050
But, nevertheless, the newsreel sent
me on a business trip to Mosfilm.

37
00:02:59,390 --> 00:03:02,790
Temporarily. And I became
production director together with

38
00:03:02,790 --> 00:03:04,110
Sergei Nikolaevich Gurov.

39
00:03:04,610 --> 00:03:08,590
Sergei Nikolaevich Gurov has already done
he had such an experience, he was making a film about

40
00:03:08,590 --> 00:03:14,930
circus together with Yuri Mozerov “Arena
brave." It was such a circus revue. A

41
00:03:14,930 --> 00:03:17,410
here I was his young partner.

42
00:03:18,310 --> 00:03:23,210
And, in general, we were two Varangians,
chronicler. If Gurov even knew anything

43
00:03:23,210 --> 00:03:24,670
about the mast film, I didn’t know anything.

44
00:03:26,290 --> 00:03:30,430
There was a concert of labor reserves. And so
it was necessary to choose the best numbers,

45
00:03:30,550 --> 00:03:35,070
rearrange them again, to some
write new music, take some

46
00:03:35,070 --> 00:03:39,390
in the form in which they were, do
decorations for them and make such a film

47
00:03:39,390 --> 00:03:43,630
-a concert, but not just a concert, but a review.
I had artists play there, Nadya

48
00:03:43,630 --> 00:03:47,390
Rumyantseva, Vladimir Salnikov, Tigran
Davydov, three young actors.

49
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:52,360
And Sergei Nikolaevich Gurov really
I felt unwell. It was very

50
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:56,720
kind, very attentive person,
who very carefully introduced me,

51
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:58,080
gave way,

52
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:03,900
let me go ahead because I was
young, active, assertive.

53
00:04:04,460 --> 00:04:08,400
And he really didn't care
health, he had to leave, and he

54
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:12,980
somewhere in the middle of shooting, because everything
We had evening shifts, I went home,

55
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:17,040
and I was left alone with full power
the owner of the film set.

56
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:21,240
Well, this means that for the first time I encountered
music, with concert numbers.

57
00:04:21,779 --> 00:04:26,600
Our composer was Anatoly Lepin, with
which then gave me creative destiny

58
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:30,720
I reduced it for a long time, into many paintings. It was
a time when our cinema...

59
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:37,400
who made 6-7-8 paintings a year, moved on to
quite full blown

60
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:42,660
quantity. And it turned out that people
who can put up a lot of pictures,

61
00:04:42,660 --> 00:04:48,620
120-150 paintings had to be done per year,
Directing was not enough. And Pyrev

62
00:04:48,620 --> 00:04:54,440
came to Matvey as director. Pyrev was
famous director. He had 7

63
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,280
- to me, 7, maybe 6, I don’t know, Stalin’s
bonuses.

64
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:01,760
It was the people's favorite, the favorite
government. And so he was appointed

65
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:08,720
studio director. And Pyrev, of course, on
as studio director. This is special

66
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:13,080
poem, special story. This is very
interesting personality. And a lot

67
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,840
done for the development of our cinema.

68
00:05:17,049 --> 00:05:20,870
so that our cinema moves from
small-picture to multi-picture,

69
00:05:20,870 --> 00:05:25,790
Pyrev's achievement is incredible. There was a man with
unbridled character, Siberian, very

70
00:05:25,790 --> 00:05:27,310
generally so unique.

71
00:05:27,550 --> 00:05:32,110
Everyone in the studio was afraid of him. He was named
Ivan. Ivan is coming, Ivan is coming, Ivan. Only

72
00:05:32,110 --> 00:05:35,590
yes. Well, Ivan the Terrible is simple. And that's all
no nails. I love him too

73
00:05:35,590 --> 00:05:36,590
was afraid.

74
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:42,760
It turns out that he was hiring at this time
directors, inviting them, came to

75
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:47,400
this temporary Maxfilm and young
architects, and young actors, and

76
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:52,140
theater directors, directors from
documentaries, writers.

77
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:59,220
He, trying to search among the newcomers
talented people, he

78
00:05:59,220 --> 00:06:02,840
arrived with me like this
way. I didn't know about this, I found out

79
00:06:02,840 --> 00:06:06,080
much later, two years later. He
came.

80
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:10,220
Secretly, behind the scenery. And watched me
I'm working.

81
00:06:11,380 --> 00:06:12,820
I didn't know about this.

82
00:06:13,380 --> 00:06:17,640
In short, the film "Spring Voice"
ended.

83
00:06:18,280 --> 00:06:19,740
He came onto the screen.

84
00:06:20,100 --> 00:06:24,540
She was sweet, unpretentious, but
well done picture.

85
00:06:24,860 --> 00:06:28,620
Not opening any Americas, no matter what
not pretending.

86
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:34,120
And I was about to go on my first trip in my life
vacation.

87
00:06:34,330 --> 00:06:39,850
I bought a ticket, bought a ticket. I remember that
it was somewhere there, or Kislovodsk,

88
00:06:39,850 --> 00:06:41,750
not so Zheleznovodsk. I don't remember anymore
why.

89
00:06:43,150 --> 00:06:45,390
I didn't have any stomach problems
diseases.

90
00:06:45,630 --> 00:06:49,750
But everyone went to Kislovodsk. I think that
and I need to go to Kislovodsk. First

91
00:06:49,750 --> 00:06:53,910
a vacation in life. And suddenly a call home.
Pyryev is calling you.

92
00:06:55,230 --> 00:06:57,150
Pyryev causes this to run and run.

93
00:06:57,370 --> 00:07:01,750
I enter the office and find this
picture. Two are sitting...

94
00:07:01,980 --> 00:07:07,720
There are few such people as dejected
for some reason gloomy. I knew one of them

95
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:11,140
it was Boris Laskin, who was
author of the script for the film "Spring

96
00:07:11,140 --> 00:07:16,160
voices." A cheerful, charming man
brilliant storyteller. He said this:

97
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:20,900
that it was impossible to tear yourself away. He has
there were incredible stories in the theater when

98
00:07:20,900 --> 00:07:22,020
he read the play.

99
00:07:22,620 --> 00:07:26,760
then the actors were simply in admiration, in
delighted. The play is immediately always

100
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:32,080
was accepted because he read it like that
artistic, so cool in general that one

101
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,520
since he had the imprudence to leave
copy of the play.

102
00:07:36,060 --> 00:07:39,720
After I read it. And when
read it with your own eyes, then the play is not

103
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:43,840
they took it. You see, it was like that
incredible... Although, if you think about it, if

104
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:48,480
one person could do so wonderfully
lose. But these are different things. Here

105
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,200
the charm of the narrator, of course.

106
00:07:50,900 --> 00:07:54,340
Even though you know that this is the author,
who wrote all this.

107
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:58,460
But, in general, one of them was Boris
Klaskin. And the second one was unknown to me

108
00:07:58,460 --> 00:07:59,460
man.

109
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:05,280
Personally unknown. Vladimir Polyakov. This
was a very fashionable writer and humorist.

110
00:08:05,770 --> 00:08:11,250
He had such a famous play
Akhfert, who went to the Genoaktor Theater.

111
00:08:11,270 --> 00:08:15,190
A lot of raking programs he
did. Riking, so to speak,

112
00:08:15,210 --> 00:08:18,050
was brought up on Polyakov's literature.

113
00:08:18,330 --> 00:08:21,890
Well, that means Pyrev says, here
see, look, these are two wonderful ones

114
00:08:21,890 --> 00:08:25,390
person. How do you feel about
to make a musical comedy? I

115
00:08:25,390 --> 00:08:26,390
said very bad.

116
00:08:26,860 --> 00:08:31,580
They were shocked because like me
then I realized it was Pyr who acted as

117
00:08:31,580 --> 00:08:35,480
pimps. That means he brought us together,
getting his way.

118
00:08:35,820 --> 00:08:40,460
In general, he is every person he
accepted the masses, he tried to persuade

119
00:08:40,460 --> 00:08:44,380
doing comedy. But directors are people
strong will.

120
00:08:44,830 --> 00:08:49,250
They refused. For some reason no one
they were not seduced by the glory of Gogol,

121
00:08:49,270 --> 00:08:52,410
Saltykova, Shchedrin. Because I was
such a phrase in some party

122
00:08:52,410 --> 00:08:54,910
report that we need Gogol and
Saltykova, Shchedrin.

123
00:08:55,170 --> 00:08:57,970
And somehow everyone tried to get away.

124
00:08:58,510 --> 00:09:02,810
from this proposal of Pyrev, and from me,
as it turned out, it turned out, in general,

125
00:09:02,830 --> 00:09:06,250
character is weak, and Pyrev was able to do this to me
spore.

126
00:09:06,510 --> 00:09:12,350
I say no, I don't want to. And in general, I
I'm going on vacation now, here I have it

127
00:09:12,350 --> 00:09:17,830
already a voucher, and a ticket, and Pyrev said
so, show me. I was very much like that

128
00:09:17,830 --> 00:09:22,170
naive, gullible, not at all
understood Pyrev. I took it out and gave it to him

129
00:09:22,170 --> 00:09:23,170
in your hands.

130
00:09:23,510 --> 00:09:27,150
He pressed the bell button, the assistant ran in,
assistant

131
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:31,520
He gave it to them and said, okay, hand over the ticket
back to the ticket office, return the ticket there,

132
00:09:31,540 --> 00:09:35,420
where it was bought, give him the money. A
you, my dear, will go to Bulgaria, to

133
00:09:35,420 --> 00:09:39,700
our home of creativity, on vacation, you'll be there
relax and help them write the script.

134
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:44,600
Film "Carnival Night". I want to
you put it there. Because I know you

135
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:48,720
you know how to work with music. This is the phrase
was mysterious to me. Then I realized

136
00:09:48,820 --> 00:09:53,440
that he really came on time
filming, hiding behind the scenery,

137
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:58,840
looked out, sniffed, sniffed. And,
it means he did it so recklessly

138
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,960
withdrawal to my address.

139
00:10:02,650 --> 00:10:07,390
Well, in short, I'm really very
I really wanted to go to Mosfilm Stat. And

140
00:10:07,390 --> 00:10:12,090
so I understood that if I now
If I refuse, then I won’t care, so

141
00:10:12,090 --> 00:10:16,850
to say, Mosfilm is nowhere to be seen
own ears. And I gave up and

142
00:10:16,850 --> 00:10:19,130
agreed and went to Bolsha. And so...

143
00:10:19,690 --> 00:10:23,050
And my work on the film began
"Carnival Night" Confusion

144
00:10:23,050 --> 00:10:26,670
Pyreva, so unceremonious. Well,
Of course, that’s how Soviet ones are in general

145
00:10:26,670 --> 00:10:32,170
the leaders did not act. He, being on
remained as studio director,

146
00:10:32,190 --> 00:10:34,630
of course, by the director, because it was
arbitrariness.

147
00:10:34,830 --> 00:10:39,830
It was absolutely a director's move. Here
such a trick that is discouraging,

148
00:10:39,930 --> 00:10:41,230
you understand how this is possible.

149
00:10:41,730 --> 00:10:45,090
You start to think, but I’m slowly, really not
has. But it's too late, the train has left, you're already

150
00:10:45,090 --> 00:10:47,910
agreed. I really don't feel like it
lay.

151
00:10:48,510 --> 00:10:53,170
I was full of ambition
make dramas to make people cry on mine

152
00:10:53,170 --> 00:10:57,750
paintings. I refused all the time. I
refused when the script was written.

153
00:10:57,750 --> 00:11:02,150
Although I was sitting next to the authors, I still
I couldn't compose anything. I'm some

154
00:11:02,150 --> 00:11:03,650
He gave them timid advice.

155
00:11:03,870 --> 00:11:06,910
Our relationship was quite normal.

156
00:11:07,560 --> 00:11:09,180
Well, they were already experienced people.

157
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:14,180
Laskin, by the way, was known to many
songs for films.

158
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:18,680
“The clouds have become over the city” or “Went out to
steppe young Donetsk guy" and so on

159
00:11:18,680 --> 00:11:24,800
further. Many, many songs were written.
And Polyakov was already an experienced playwright,

160
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:29,380
not only, so to speak, pop for
Raikin, but his plays were also performed in theaters.

161
00:11:31,100 --> 00:11:33,300
In short, they are launching me...

162
00:11:33,550 --> 00:11:38,250
with this scenario. Honestly speaking,
the script was very bad. I am this

163
00:11:38,250 --> 00:11:42,490
I understood it then, but then I realized it
especially good.

164
00:11:43,790 --> 00:11:48,970
Pyrev, realizing that young me
director, debutant, in general, essentially

165
00:11:48,970 --> 00:11:53,190
things that no one knew would happen
very difficult, I understood that I needed to

166
00:11:53,190 --> 00:11:58,370
would be attributed to a powerful film crew. And
I was surrounded, he surrounded me, as it were...

167
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:03,900
professionals. Choreographer Shakhovskaya,
chief choreographer of the operetta theater,

168
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:10,880
composer Lepin, artists Konstantin
Efimov and Oleg Grosse, or Grosse,

169
00:12:10,940 --> 00:12:12,780
I don't even know how to put the emphasis.

170
00:12:12,980 --> 00:12:17,500
There was a young artist, but next to him was
experienced master. And so on and so on

171
00:12:17,500 --> 00:12:18,500
further, and so on.

172
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:23,440
And only my operator was young, but
not for long, as it turned out.

173
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:26,600
I started doing screen tests.

174
00:12:27,270 --> 00:12:32,890
Our main thing is the massacre with Pyryev
happened on Ogurtsov’s candidacy.

175
00:12:33,350 --> 00:12:39,770
I did different auditions with different actors,
and I really liked one artist,

176
00:12:39,770 --> 00:12:45,570
People's Artist of the Soviet Union, Peter
Konstantinov, he worked at the Maly Theater.

177
00:12:45,850 --> 00:12:50,730
He had an amazing audition for
Ogurtsova, amazing. He was like that

178
00:12:50,730 --> 00:12:53,770
scary, so natural, so real.

179
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:59,260
And if you took it, it would be a picture
not only funny, she would be funny,

180
00:12:59,300 --> 00:13:03,900
but she would be scary and creepy. Because
that he reminded us so much of all these

181
00:13:03,900 --> 00:13:10,280
Stalinist, stupid, limited,
in general those from the earth who

182
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:16,080
interfered with any business. Today he
cemetery director, he's in the park tomorrow

183
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:20,100
culture, the day after tomorrow he leads
electronic enterprise. What is this

184
00:13:20,100 --> 00:13:21,620
anything, just to lead.

185
00:13:22,550 --> 00:13:29,270
Pyrev looked at this sample and said yes,
That means we need to take Ilyinsky.

186
00:13:29,330 --> 00:13:30,330
I say why?

187
00:13:30,650 --> 00:13:35,190
I didn't want to take Ilyinsky because
Ilyinsky was a famous comedian. He's already

188
00:13:35,190 --> 00:13:38,350
was very famous when I wasn't yet
born. You see, the cutter from

189
00:13:38,350 --> 00:13:43,670
Tashkapa, he was before I was born or
somewhere around the same time as the year I

190
00:13:43,670 --> 00:13:49,030
born. And he was already a man with
incredible biography and popularity.

191
00:13:49,850 --> 00:13:56,430
Paintings about Tazanov, “Cutter from
Torzhok", "Feast of Saint

192
00:13:56,430 --> 00:13:57,430
Jorgen" and so on.

193
00:13:58,350 --> 00:14:04,050
He says no, I say take it
Ilyinsky. We had a fight that

194
00:14:04,050 --> 00:14:05,390
I lost all the time.

195
00:14:06,010 --> 00:14:09,730
And the thing was that Pyrev
still very much understood in which country

196
00:14:09,730 --> 00:14:15,630
we live, and I understood that with Konstantin
the film will not be accepted, it will be rejected

197
00:14:15,630 --> 00:14:19,690
on the shelf because it was already like that
to say creepy, it wouldn't be easy

198
00:14:19,690 --> 00:14:23,870
satire, and this would be like this
Saltakova-Shchedrinskaya thing.

199
00:14:24,490 --> 00:14:30,910
And I began my trips to Igor
Vladimirovich. First of all, I was afraid

200
00:14:30,910 --> 00:14:32,310
I had a feeling that...

201
00:14:32,590 --> 00:14:37,250
The bigger the artist, the more famous he is,
the more unpredictable he is, the more he

202
00:14:37,250 --> 00:14:41,790
undisciplined. Definitely a must
to be a boor, a drunkard. I had these

203
00:14:41,790 --> 00:14:45,690
the impression that a star is something
monstrous. I just can't handle him

204
00:14:45,710 --> 00:14:50,970
because I was just twice as old
less than Igor Vladimirovich. And this

205
00:14:50,970 --> 00:14:56,550
It was, of course, very much, I really didn’t want to. I
I really wanted him to refuse. Arrived

206
00:14:56,550 --> 00:14:59,530
I tell him, here he is, he sent it
script.

207
00:15:01,339 --> 00:15:05,080
Igor Vladimirovich, I would like you to
played the role of a cucumber. He says yes I am

208
00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:09,660
the darling has already played him, a bureaucrat
experienced, Volga-Volga. I say, oh

209
00:15:09,660 --> 00:15:12,640
thank God, he will refuse now. So
what is there, I understand what is needed

210
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:15,260
persuade. I say Igor
Vladimirovich, time has passed, then there were

211
00:15:15,260 --> 00:15:19,900
such very shameless fools.
Now they are somewhat different, they seem to

212
00:15:19,900 --> 00:15:24,500
camouflaged, they are for someone
picked up, picked up some

213
00:15:24,500 --> 00:15:28,460
things, they seem to almost
intelligent, they just have a creepy mug.

214
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:30,240
He says yes, yes, you are right
speak.

215
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:33,700
Well, maybe it really is
try looking for makeup, or what? I

216
00:15:33,700 --> 00:15:35,420
I think, Christmas trees, now I’ll agree.

217
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:39,280
Well, well, let's do it, then. We have become
talk about what fools people are now.

218
00:15:40,060 --> 00:15:45,680
So, what kind of leaders, what
Ilyinsky says, yes, yes, in general,

219
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:51,880
says the same very active, active
like that, he doesn’t sit, he doesn’t have a butt

220
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:56,960
surpassed the chair, he walks, he is all the time
he advises, he gives instructions, he is in a rush,

221
00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:01,280
he is in creative ecstasy, you know what,
means, take more people, there will be

222
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:05,680
a big mass quartet, you know, he
all the time, so to speak, offers,

223
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:09,780
it means he has some things, aphorisms,
like Baba Yaga. education in his

224
00:16:09,780 --> 00:16:15,560
team, some aphorisms, and
Ogurtsov, and in general, and entered into life

225
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:17,480
and the life of the Soviet people.

226
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:24,800
And we started doing a test. We started doing
audition, and he played this one at the audition, so

227
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:29,400
when an active, well-meaning fool,
this is much worse than a fool

228
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:33,680
passive and lethargic, you understand. Here he is
played such a leader in whom

229
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:35,980
the fading features were very visible.

230
00:16:36,350 --> 00:16:43,030
Stalin era, people who
made a mess in all areas, and in

231
00:16:43,030 --> 00:16:46,470
industry, and in culture, and in
agriculture, such people

232
00:16:46,470 --> 00:16:51,950
there really was a lot, and Igor
This is exactly what Vladimirovich tried, so

233
00:16:51,950 --> 00:16:54,090
say, show on the screen.

234
00:16:54,850 --> 00:16:58,590
Зачем нашим советским людям скрывать
your face?

235
00:16:59,610 --> 00:17:00,610
Why at all?

236
00:17:01,110 --> 00:17:02,710
This is not typical.

237
00:17:03,590 --> 00:17:05,050
But that's not the point.

238
00:17:06,060 --> 00:17:07,500
Let's move on to the essence of the issue.

239
00:17:08,599 --> 00:17:12,900
Comrades, there is a fun setup
celebrate the New Year.

240
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:20,460
By the way, this imposes on us and at the same time
time demands from us. We must

241
00:17:20,460 --> 00:17:25,020
conduct our events in such a way that
no one could say anything.

242
00:17:26,900 --> 00:17:32,480
It is necessary to apply a fantasy game,
to...

243
00:17:32,860 --> 00:17:39,600
In accordance with the estimate, carry out our
event at a high level of comrades.

244
00:17:39,620 --> 00:17:42,080
And the main thing is to understand that it’s serious.

245
00:17:42,780 --> 00:17:47,620
The second difficulty was heroin. Heroine
should have been young

246
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:54,520
attractive, with a good figure,
musical, with dance possibilities

247
00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:57,900
and be a dramatic actress
at the same time. I've tried a lot.

248
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:03,500
The actress must say that she was very
Irina Skoptseva has a good test. Very

249
00:18:03,500 --> 00:18:09,660
good try. She sang like that at the audition
a charming song about the Parisian gamen.

250
00:18:09,660 --> 00:18:15,840
I was recently in Montan before this. And this
there was such a fashionable song

251
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:20,340
in such a boy's suit, with a scarf.

252
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:22,400
It was a simply charming test.

253
00:18:23,310 --> 00:18:28,130
I think this might be what happened
that Irina Konstantinovna passed by

254
00:18:28,130 --> 00:18:29,230
your true calling.

255
00:18:30,150 --> 00:18:34,270
Because she then played like this
dramatic roles. Beauty,

256
00:18:34,370 --> 00:18:40,910
Helen Bezukhova and so on.

257
00:18:42,150 --> 00:18:45,210
But Pyrev said that no, this is not
good.

258
00:18:45,410 --> 00:18:51,710
This is a good test, but right away we have
it turns out that this is not our cultural center

259
00:18:51,710 --> 00:18:52,710
factory

260
00:18:53,340 --> 00:18:58,800
American review. And this is according to this
reason is not suitable. In the midst of screen tests

261
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:05,400
something very significant happened
history since it was

262
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:10,740
we know that this is a review, what is needed there
sing, dance, that is the image of Love

263
00:19:10,740 --> 00:19:15,620
Orlova from "Volga-Volga", from the circus, from
"Merry guys" stood.

264
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:23,020
In the eyes of many, many people I
recommended all their wives,

265
00:19:23,380 --> 00:19:27,540
lovers, acquaintances, beneficial ones
some profits. I don't know, in general it's

266
00:19:27,540 --> 00:19:33,180
it was quite difficult. And one time to me
come, I was preceded by a call and

267
00:19:33,180 --> 00:19:37,260
they said that a young woman will come to you
singer, soloist of the Bolshoi Theater.

268
00:19:38,460 --> 00:19:42,180
Treat her with great respect
attention, because it is, in essence, her.

269
00:19:43,140 --> 00:19:47,940
Relates to Bulganin. They have
there is some hint that she

270
00:19:47,940 --> 00:19:50,580
his shepherd or beloved. Something in
this spirit.

271
00:19:51,300 --> 00:19:56,720
Fir trees. Only this was not enough. This
beginning of 1956. Two years ago, by

272
00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:00,800
Essentially, Stalin died. Everything is so fresh.

273
00:20:01,580 --> 00:20:06,980
Fresh in my mind. My father hasn't left yet
from the camp.

274
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:10,260
In which he served 17 years. Do you understand?

275
00:20:11,870 --> 00:20:17,030
I'm scared and don't know what to do. Comes
young lady, well, she’s like, everything’s fine,

276
00:20:17,150 --> 00:20:22,330
not beautiful, really, but a good figure,
not like our opera singers

277
00:20:22,330 --> 00:20:24,130
Before, they were this thick.

278
00:20:25,190 --> 00:20:30,310
No wonder there was such a joke that about
Valeria Barsova, a wonderful folk

279
00:20:30,310 --> 00:20:34,490
artist of the USSR, with a wonderful voice,
when the theater was in Kuibyshev.

280
00:20:34,990 --> 00:20:41,790
in evacuation in my hometown, he is there
gave concerts. That is

281
00:20:41,790 --> 00:20:45,350
gave a performance, but in concert
performance. The costumes didn’t arrive, but Barsova

282
00:20:45,350 --> 00:20:51,710
was famous for such a powerful pose. And everyone
the artists were awarded

283
00:20:51,710 --> 00:20:56,370
medal for the defense of Moscow. But they were in
Samara. And they said that Barsova was from

284
00:20:56,370 --> 00:20:59,550
Kuibysheva protects Moscow with her breasts.
Do you understand?

285
00:20:59,990 --> 00:21:03,130
Well, it was skinny, it’s like
everything was fine.

286
00:21:05,900 --> 00:21:09,440
But no matter how inexpressively, in general,
something, something stupid

287
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,100
begins. She came not alone, but in
accompanied by two young men,

288
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:15,860
who recommended themselves as secretaries
City Komsomol Committee. Maybe they were

289
00:21:15,860 --> 00:21:19,460
secretaries of the Komsomol city committee, but I
got the feeling that these were two of her

290
00:21:19,460 --> 00:21:20,460
security guard.

291
00:21:21,100 --> 00:21:25,960
I start telling her, you know, here you are
soloist of the Bolshoi Theater, and this is such

292
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:30,800
this is a pop thing, you need something so light here
songs, it will just be awkward for you

293
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:34,900
this. She says no, no, let it be very
cleverly, I started my career by singing in

294
00:21:34,900 --> 00:21:35,900
restaurant.

295
00:21:37,540 --> 00:21:39,640
Yes, that means this number didn’t work for me.

296
00:21:39,860 --> 00:21:43,660
So, I poured something on her, then I say,
ok, leave me your phone number, I'll

297
00:21:43,660 --> 00:21:48,760
I'll call you when we have something to do
will do, so to speak, already.

298
00:21:49,899 --> 00:21:50,899
Screen test then.

299
00:21:51,060 --> 00:21:55,520
And I run in panic towards the dust. I say, Ivan
Alexandrovich, what should I do?

300
00:21:55,780 --> 00:22:00,040
This is the situation. He says mistress
Bulganin, or something, or someone, something in

301
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:01,640
this. I say what to do? I don't know.

302
00:22:02,360 --> 00:22:03,840
He says send her.

303
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,240
And it goes, so to speak, three stories high.

304
00:22:07,740 --> 00:22:11,780
I exhaled. Air, I think, thank God.
Took responsibility upon himself. And more me

305
00:22:11,780 --> 00:22:16,160
I didn’t call, I never know anything.
I don't know anything else about this one

306
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:17,700
young lady, what happened.

307
00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:18,920
And then...

308
00:22:19,070 --> 00:22:24,390
So I found such a girl from
amateur performances, Lyudmila Kasyanova.

309
00:22:24,890 --> 00:22:30,650
She was a very charming young lady, her face
such. Then there were fashionable Italian

310
00:22:30,650 --> 00:22:34,430
movies, Italian type of beauty. She
was absolutely as if from

311
00:22:34,430 --> 00:22:35,510
Italian ribbon.

312
00:22:36,470 --> 00:22:39,510
And she sang a charming song at the audition.

313
00:22:41,210 --> 00:22:44,330
We found some music for her,
Polyukov wrote some, so to speak,

314
00:22:44,430 --> 00:22:45,430
subtext.

315
00:22:46,820 --> 00:22:50,120
And the artistic council unanimously
approved.

316
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:55,480
Unanimously. Just, well, beautiful
young lady, we need to start filming.

317
00:22:56,380 --> 00:23:03,340
And what happened next? We started
shooting. I shoot with her for a day, two, three.

318
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:07,740
And on the third day I understand that everything
she could, she did it on trial. What is she

319
00:23:07,740 --> 00:23:11,840
won't fit the picture. What is she missing?
just, well...

320
00:23:13,180 --> 00:23:16,480
guts, inner wealth, so
I'd say it's very flat.

321
00:23:17,120 --> 00:23:23,900
And now I had the first, the first in my life
this was a very difficult thing to decide

322
00:23:23,900 --> 00:23:28,140
for what an actress needs, I really like her
I liked her, she was very pretty

323
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:34,600
means to remove her from the role because she is not
I got, roughly speaking, no money

324
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:38,440
temperament, not in any way, so
to say, the actor's spiritual reserves.

325
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:42,540
Well, there was no profession, she was
still an amateur girl.

326
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:49,260
In short, I come to Pyryev and
I say, Ivan Alexandrovich, the heroine is not

327
00:23:49,260 --> 00:23:53,880
pulls. And he, including Kalatozov, and
others there, everyone is just delighted with her

328
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:54,880
approved.

329
00:23:55,360 --> 00:23:58,600
And he suddenly tells me, take Gurchenko.

330
00:24:01,140 --> 00:24:04,800
And I’ll tell you what happened to Gurchenko,
because we also tried Gurchenko.

331
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:08,560
And Gurchenko had an excellent test.

332
00:24:09,740 --> 00:24:15,340
She sang Lolita Torres songs, danced,
Well, it was just a great voice, that's all

333
00:24:15,340 --> 00:24:19,540
wonderful. But only then
young cameraman Emil Gulidov, who

334
00:24:19,540 --> 00:24:21,040
worked with me, took it off like this.

335
00:24:22,250 --> 00:24:28,330
What was just on the screen, sorry, this
Lesya, my close friend is wonderful, we

336
00:24:28,330 --> 00:24:33,390
We've been friends with her for many years, already
just a lot of years, and I have it

337
00:24:33,390 --> 00:24:36,290
I filmed a lot, but on the screen it’s just
there was a monkey.

338
00:24:37,290 --> 00:24:40,430
So, I realized that this girl,
despite the fact that she is very

339
00:24:40,430 --> 00:24:44,650
talented, never acted in films
will be because she is monstrous

340
00:24:44,650 --> 00:24:45,650
ugly.

341
00:24:47,230 --> 00:24:49,170
And Pyrev tells me, take Gurchenko.

342
00:24:49,900 --> 00:24:53,820
But the point, it turns out, is that,
after watching the samples, Pyrev of this operator

343
00:24:53,820 --> 00:24:54,820
took it from me and put it away.

344
00:24:55,100 --> 00:24:58,240
He seemed to immediately understand that he too
won't pull it.

345
00:24:58,820 --> 00:25:04,120
And they also assigned me for reinforcement
Arkady Nikolaevich Koltsatov, three times

346
00:25:04,120 --> 00:25:07,640
laureate of the Stalin Prize, who filmed
there is “Great Citizen”, Anton

347
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:11,820
Ivanovich Serdis. Well, in general, experienced
the master is already, so to speak, middle-aged

348
00:25:11,820 --> 00:25:12,820
man.

349
00:25:13,260 --> 00:25:16,980
And I say, well, she's really bad
received. Now Koltsatova, he

350
00:25:16,980 --> 00:25:17,980
will take off well.

351
00:25:18,649 --> 00:25:22,870
So, we call on Lyusya Gurchenko.

352
00:25:23,770 --> 00:25:29,690
I think that she herself will tell you about
how Pyryev liked her, and how she and

353
00:25:29,690 --> 00:25:33,190
met him. I won't, I won't
witness, it's her, I think, herself

354
00:25:33,190 --> 00:25:37,690
will tell you because she has this
During the interval there was a meeting with Pyryev

355
00:25:37,690 --> 00:25:38,690
in the corridor.

356
00:25:38,830 --> 00:25:42,050
Do you understand how it ended?
It ended with Pyryev’s phrase, take

357
00:25:42,050 --> 00:25:43,050
Gurchenko.

358
00:25:43,390 --> 00:25:45,410
We began to tinker with it.

359
00:25:46,060 --> 00:25:48,780
I started looking for rings, color, makeup.

360
00:25:49,220 --> 00:25:56,040
They made her so light and elegant
little thing that she

361
00:25:56,040 --> 00:26:01,360
brought throughout my life. I won't
tell, but it was found on

362
00:26:01,360 --> 00:26:05,580
carnival night. And immediately it turned out
charming young lady on screen.

363
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:12,000
And everything else, musicality, talent,
that was all. And we started filming.

364
00:26:12,590 --> 00:26:18,730
I also had a big struggle with her,
because Lyusenka, she’s actually from

365
00:26:18,730 --> 00:26:23,690
Kharkov. And a little felt very
such a southern Russian “g” is there.

366
00:26:24,090 --> 00:26:30,050
And it was necessary, so, as it were, they worked
over the conversation. Sometimes they re-shot takes from

367
00:26:30,050 --> 00:26:32,230
- because she, so to speak, is like that
I would say that.

368
00:26:32,430 --> 00:26:36,770
Then she was very jazzy,
everything. She was all spinning, she was all on

369
00:26:36,770 --> 00:26:38,970
hinges. And it was...

370
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,820
Also too much, because, well, after all
this is a girl from the factory

371
00:26:42,820 --> 00:26:46,780
amateur performances, from the Palace of Culture,
so to speak, some kind of large plant.

372
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:50,920
It was too much, so I was like
re-shot, said, so to speak, not

373
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:55,200
you have to twirl your butt like that in general
double or something like that. Well she

374
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:56,640
I think he will also talk about this.

375
00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:04,160
Our relationship was like that, well,
pretty director and actress.

376
00:27:04,220 --> 00:27:05,600
That's the kind of relationship we had.

377
00:27:06,140 --> 00:27:08,460
They have already become friends, so to speak.
later.

378
00:27:10,090 --> 00:27:15,050
Anyway, they started filming.
Gurchenko, and it became clear that the heroine

379
00:27:15,050 --> 00:27:20,870
yes. There is wonderful Ogurtsov, and there is
The heroine is wonderful. So that was it

380
00:27:20,870 --> 00:27:21,870
very important.

381
00:27:21,930 --> 00:27:26,510
There was another very interesting story with
artist for the role of lecturer. Here is Pyrev

382
00:27:26,510 --> 00:27:28,470
also turned around to its full potential.

383
00:27:32,100 --> 00:27:35,880
He rejected everything. Who am I not
tried it. Oh my God, I tried there and

384
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:39,940
Lepko, a wonderful artist, and
Beniaminov, a wonderful artist, very

385
00:27:39,940 --> 00:27:45,500
funny, and someone else, more, more, more.
Just a huge number of actors,

386
00:27:45,500 --> 00:27:49,100
very good. I just don't have them right now
I remember, but there were all 15 of them.

387
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:50,560
He rejected everything.

388
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:54,480
The film is already underway, filming is underway, it’s coming
already an object when you need to film

389
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:55,480
lecturer

390
00:27:56,170 --> 00:27:59,030
And at this moment, then, it comes to me
try Filippov's head. But

391
00:27:59,030 --> 00:28:02,150
There's no time to try anymore. We're just filming
episode into the picture.

392
00:28:02,730 --> 00:28:06,390
That is, if it works out, then he is in
picture. If it doesn't work out, he

393
00:28:06,390 --> 00:28:07,850
is thrown out. Like this.

394
00:28:08,490 --> 00:28:13,710
And that means we make mustaches. That's all, that means
here he comes in. I got here or not here.

395
00:28:14,390 --> 00:28:17,170
So, lecturer on distribution and so
further, and so on.

396
00:28:17,730 --> 00:28:22,210
So I'm showing this episode, this
sample I don't know what it's called. He

397
00:28:22,210 --> 00:28:24,010
also falls from the chair.

398
00:28:25,210 --> 00:28:28,670
Laughs. And he says everything is approved,
shoot, and so on, and so on. And so

399
00:28:28,670 --> 00:28:34,730
Sergei Nikolaevich got into the picture
Filippov. And then I realized that,

400
00:28:34,790 --> 00:28:38,350
so to speak, I analyzed it later
some kind of success of the picture that the man is there,

401
00:28:38,390 --> 00:28:39,970
of course, the image of a hack.

402
00:28:40,270 --> 00:28:43,790
His psychophysical data is such
absolutely a redneck.

403
00:28:44,540 --> 00:28:48,780
It didn't suit him at all
true essence, because it was

404
00:28:48,780 --> 00:28:53,860
very intelligent person
cultured, well-read, wonderful

405
00:28:53,860 --> 00:28:59,340
man. But he had one
half-gangster, half-redneck appearance.

406
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:04,200
And so when a professor, academician, erudite,

407
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:10,600
secretly a drunkard, and it all took a toll on
image

408
00:29:11,580 --> 00:29:15,660
And we worked wonderfully with Sergei
Nikolaevich.

409
00:29:15,980 --> 00:29:17,160
People!

410
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:22,980
Comrade!

411
00:29:26,220 --> 00:29:27,400
Comrade!

412
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:33,780
All of you are interested in the question, is there
life on Mars.

413
00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:36,480
Please everyone!

414
00:29:40,430 --> 00:29:42,310
The stars seem small.

415
00:29:42,770 --> 00:29:47,090
Small ones. But we just have to take
telescope and

416
00:29:47,090 --> 00:29:53,970
look with the naked eye how we
we already see

417
00:29:53,970 --> 00:29:57,530
two stars, three stars, four
stars.

418
00:29:57,770 --> 00:29:59,890
Best of all, of course, is five stars.

419
00:30:00,779 --> 00:30:04,840
I must say that there was also one
very spicy story when we already

420
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:09,240
filmed in the pavilion at Maxfilm here
this very lecture. Is there life on

421
00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:12,200
Mars, is there life on Mars, where is it
already, so to speak, jaded,

422
00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:13,940
totally drunk.

423
00:30:14,140 --> 00:30:17,620
It was found during the shooting, these are the people, ay,
this is, so to speak, just nothing.

424
00:30:18,140 --> 00:30:22,840
In general, there are impromptu, improvisation,
there are a lot of replicas in this picture,

425
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,540
which, so to speak, did not smell
scenario, unfortunately.

426
00:30:26,540 --> 00:30:33,000
And, in short, he comes from
St. Petersburg, somewhere we have a second shift,

427
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:37,460
and he manages to drink. And it's good to drink.

428
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:43,520
I'm a young director, inexperienced, I think
well, okay, I drank, and I need to play

429
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:47,800
drunk. Not that he's getting drunk there
eyes. He comes out drunk already.

430
00:30:48,380 --> 00:30:49,660
Science is not in the know.

431
00:30:50,060 --> 00:30:51,700
This means there is vital activity.

432
00:30:51,980 --> 00:30:56,260
The science is still unknown. She doesn't know
affairs. Starts to dance.

433
00:30:57,640 --> 00:30:58,660
Nothing works.

434
00:30:59,100 --> 00:31:01,160
We shoot 13 takes.

435
00:31:01,940 --> 00:31:05,060
A huge amount of film. This is not
funny.

436
00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:07,100
This is stupid.

437
00:31:07,660 --> 00:31:10,840
And it doesn't work. I'm sending him back
to Leningrad.

438
00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:16,580
I don't know what to do. This is one of
key comedic moments of the film.

439
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:18,000
You see, he must be funny.

440
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:25,060
In five days Sergei Nikolaevich
comes to Mosfilm for the second time,

441
00:31:25,060 --> 00:31:29,520
that means for the same shoot. Sober as
piece of glass Two takes. Every. First,

442
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:31,320
second. One is better than the other. I don't know
which one to take?

443
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:34,480
Amazing. Amazing. Everything works out
right away, right away.

444
00:31:34,860 --> 00:31:38,820
And he danced wonderfully. He is also
He performed in ballet at one time. Therefore

445
00:31:38,820 --> 00:31:40,540
he was actually a dancer.

446
00:31:41,180 --> 00:31:46,920
And this is how this one turned out
episode "If Life on Mars". And with

447
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:48,160
It didn't work the first time.

448
00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:51,460
There were a lot of very difficult things. Well,
for example,

449
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:57,440
in some places the film "Carnival Night" seems to
is approaching a musical in our

450
00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:00,780
modern understanding of this word. We
then, of course, not even such a word

451
00:32:00,780 --> 00:32:03,120
knew. And in general they worked fully
darkness, of course.

452
00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:08,540
But now I’ll tell you how
a number was created, for example, “Five Minutes.”

453
00:32:09,390 --> 00:32:14,770
The authors wrote in the script, Lenochka
Krylova sings the song “Greeting”. Here

454
00:32:14,770 --> 00:32:16,570
I need to go to the pavilion.

455
00:32:16,850 --> 00:32:18,550
What should I do anyway?

456
00:32:18,770 --> 00:32:19,890
How? There's nothing there.

457
00:32:20,330 --> 00:32:23,950
Song "Greetings" Well, it's before
For the New Year, she sings a song

458
00:32:23,950 --> 00:32:28,590
"Greetings" Everything there had to be broken
head, because there was a script,

459
00:32:28,650 --> 00:32:34,230
Of course, that was the main thing. There was
Ogurtsov, there was his character, there was satire,

460
00:32:34,230 --> 00:32:37,210
directed against Stalin's
officials.

461
00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:43,700
And that was it. But everything else was
spelled out like in a phone book.

462
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:50,320
You know, there is such a joke as in one
hospital one patient says

463
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:54,600
to another, you know, I wrote a novel,
read it, I'm very interested to know yours

464
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:55,600
opinion.

465
00:32:57,230 --> 00:33:01,090
Comes the next day and says
I read it, the book is amazing. This is

466
00:33:01,090 --> 00:33:04,970
you know, one drawback is many
actors. And at that moment there was a knock on

467
00:33:04,970 --> 00:33:08,270
door, the nanny says you're crazy,
give me the phone book.

468
00:33:08,550 --> 00:33:14,070
Here, according to the description of the characters, to
Unfortunately, the scenario came close to this,

469
00:33:14,130 --> 00:33:18,450
because there were no characters
from anyone except Ogurtsov.

470
00:33:19,660 --> 00:33:23,760
No social prerequisites
nothing, so to speak. It was very

471
00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:26,940
difficult. Well, we started to think how it is
do.

472
00:33:28,420 --> 00:33:34,500
And then, that means, to the poet Vladimir Livshits
was ordered... There is Vladimir Livshits

473
00:33:34,500 --> 00:33:37,300
wrote a lot of songs, only one
song.

474
00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:41,740
A song about a good mood was written by Vadim
Korostylev. The rest are all musical

475
00:33:41,740 --> 00:33:45,880
song numbers written by Vladimir
Livshits, a wonderful poet. He and

476
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:49,960
he was a children's poet, a prose writer, and just
poet, and a wonderful person, very

477
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:53,700
similar to the Jewish Pierre Bezukhov.

478
00:33:54,140 --> 00:33:56,900
He was a charming guy
charming front-line soldier.

479
00:33:57,660 --> 00:34:01,660
He brings the text, which means five minutes.

480
00:34:02,340 --> 00:34:05,640
And so I read this text and
I think, yeah.

481
00:34:07,210 --> 00:34:12,270
Well, that means we should then sing it according to
story five minutes before the New Year.

482
00:34:14,030 --> 00:34:19,010
So the composer composes music,
very good, five minutes.

483
00:34:19,790 --> 00:34:24,030
There were too, suddenly there was a song
"Domino" Very fashionable then. "Domino,

484
00:34:24,110 --> 00:34:28,510
domino, tarariro, tariro, tararam." And
suddenly, it means he’ll play, he says,

485
00:34:28,570 --> 00:34:30,250
five minutes, five minutes.

486
00:34:30,530 --> 00:34:35,330
And he didn't even notice it himself, you know,
had to be redone. This is very

487
00:34:35,330 --> 00:34:42,170
interesting things when, Someone like this
exists, and he did not steal any

488
00:34:42,170 --> 00:34:46,550
to some extent. It was wonderful too
composer. I'm with him, in general, five

489
00:34:46,550 --> 00:34:51,310
he made paintings, and he’s just beautiful
author of the Latvian anthem.

490
00:34:51,929 --> 00:34:57,190
The USSR existed then, he was the author of ballets.
He, hello, Moscow, wrote music.

491
00:34:58,130 --> 00:35:02,310
There was a spring flow, the picture even before
war in 1939, also wonderful

492
00:35:02,310 --> 00:35:06,610
music. He was a wonderful composer. Well
there was, for example, this very one.

493
00:35:06,690 --> 00:35:08,130
Five minutes, five minutes.

494
00:35:08,390 --> 00:35:11,470
And then it passed, so to speak, into
this. He redid it.

495
00:35:13,130 --> 00:35:18,810
So, there is music, there is text. Then,
that means I’m sitting with the artists Efimov and

496
00:35:18,810 --> 00:35:19,810
Grossom.

497
00:35:20,230 --> 00:35:25,370
And the idea is born to set the alarm clock on
stage. Set an alarm clock on stage

498
00:35:25,370 --> 00:35:29,230
put jazz there, on the bell button,
Naturally, put the drummer in prison.

499
00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:34,240
And so that the alarm clock shows five to five
about twelve minutes. How is it all

500
00:35:34,240 --> 00:35:35,240
it was born like this.

501
00:35:35,260 --> 00:35:40,120
And then I understand, the rehearsal begins,
I understand that it is impossible if it happens

502
00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:45,340
just sing on stage. I understand that
need to be taken to the hall. To the hall for this

503
00:35:45,340 --> 00:35:50,300
It was generally, so to speak, in the midst of the people.
But someone has to sing along with them. And then I

504
00:35:50,300 --> 00:35:55,280
I understand that you need to, well, sing along
as if the audience, as it were. But it takes

505
00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:56,560
means quartet chord.

506
00:35:57,640 --> 00:35:59,120
That means four girls.

507
00:35:59,810 --> 00:36:06,410
who will sing along there as guests,
this means the Shmelyov sisters are taken, this

508
00:36:06,410 --> 00:36:10,370
the trio were, so to speak, getting dressed
waitresses. And so gradually,

509
00:36:10,390 --> 00:36:16,570
gradually, acquiring rehearsals,
is born in a general number which, I

510
00:36:16,570 --> 00:36:20,690
I think there are a lot of elements in it
musical, which, so to speak, later,

511
00:36:20,950 --> 00:36:23,010
so to speak, I entered...

512
00:36:23,550 --> 00:36:27,510
Modzin began to dictate the price in general
all sorts of conditions. But we're somewhere here

513
00:36:27,510 --> 00:36:34,290
foreshadowed this then. And it turned out
number that...

514
00:36:34,290 --> 00:36:38,770
Then they come up with a Christmas tree
rises, that the clock strikes, that the song

515
00:36:38,770 --> 00:36:42,750
It also takes exactly five minutes. You see,
everything has already been done. And there's a panorama

516
00:36:42,750 --> 00:36:43,790
appears, Christmas tree.

517
00:36:44,150 --> 00:36:47,050
So, general rejoicing has arrived
New Year.

518
00:36:58,940 --> 00:37:01,940
Song "Let them sing"

519
00:37:38,380 --> 00:37:43,420
I must say that this song, this one in general
the picture, it also, so to speak, served

520
00:37:43,420 --> 00:37:44,420
alone.

521
00:37:44,900 --> 00:37:51,140
And then the New Year's lights, they
in general, also to some extent

522
00:37:51,140 --> 00:37:55,500
the creation of this picture because
the action takes place at the tables.

523
00:37:56,120 --> 00:38:01,000
Against the background of a Christmas tree, it means there is singing, dancing,
everything, so to speak, and so on, and so on

524
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:06,320
further, and so on. And these New Year's
lights that have become traditional

525
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:12,420
ours is probably 20-25 years old
entertainment on New Year's Eve, in general,

526
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:17,220
I'm not saying that we have them there
stolen, it was carried in the air, but, nevertheless

527
00:38:17,220 --> 00:38:21,560
nevertheless, it was a sample that
pushed the creation of this genre.

528
00:38:22,380 --> 00:38:28,580
I'm just telling you how it all works
was done. Then there was very

529
00:38:28,580 --> 00:38:35,280
This is an interesting task for me. There
there was a lot in the script

530
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:39,380
misses and gaps. And I understood that...

531
00:38:39,720 --> 00:38:46,420
The only salvation of this picture is
feverish rhythm. But the audience doesn't

532
00:38:46,420 --> 00:38:50,220
they have time, a collapse of new ones is coming at him
impressions, new musical numbers,

533
00:38:50,260 --> 00:38:52,220
some kind of fast rhythm.

534
00:38:52,620 --> 00:38:58,280
Because I understood one thing, that if
the viewer will have a calm atmosphere, and

535
00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:04,660
if he starts to think, he will understand
that there is a huge amount of nonsense there.

536
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:08,680
Therefore, he did not need to give
come to your senses. This is on the one hand.

537
00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:13,580
On the other hand, well, it's just a comedy
should be done at a whirlwind pace. And so

538
00:39:13,580 --> 00:39:19,420
I can tell there were duplicates if
the first take was there for two minutes, yes, then

539
00:39:19,420 --> 00:39:25,660
last, maybe fifth, sixth, me
I made duplicates in order to compress this

540
00:39:25,660 --> 00:39:30,720
fist so it's like a taut string
was. He walked not for two minutes, but for one

541
00:39:30,720 --> 00:39:36,120
by reducing pauses and rhythm. Sometimes I
it seemed that the viewer could not...

542
00:39:36,660 --> 00:39:41,340
understand what we're talking about in this
fast pace. After all, this picture

543
00:39:41,340 --> 00:39:45,320
goes, if I say now, amazingly,
It takes an hour or ten minutes.

544
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:50,180
It's almost like a short film, but
there is so much of her, in such a rhythm that

545
00:39:50,180 --> 00:39:54,860
if she walked normally, she would walk
hour forty and so on and so on.

546
00:39:55,300 --> 00:40:01,800
It is due to the rhythm, due to
the swiftness of the entire course of the picture, it

547
00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:05,360
as if eaten and was then

548
00:40:06,380 --> 00:40:11,800
The score with this is super modern. And of course
its main charge was reprisal against

549
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:16,680
bureaucracy. With our bureaucracy
Soviet, ponderous, uneducated,

550
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:20,360
stupid, arrogant.

551
00:40:21,860 --> 00:40:27,080
The bureaucracy, which had covered
rear, all sorts of loyalty,

552
00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:29,620
family relationships. A lot of things
was.

553
00:40:30,020 --> 00:40:31,020
And of course

554
00:40:31,720 --> 00:40:33,640
Igor Vladimirovich Chilinsky simply
section.

555
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:41,540
This character and section of the bureaucracy
wonderful. He is active and stupid and

556
00:40:41,540 --> 00:40:46,060
arrogant and inquisitive. It had everything.

557
00:40:46,540 --> 00:40:51,400
He just had it all the time
dominance that he is a fool.

558
00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:57,320
Still so active, well-intentioned,
very persistent.

559
00:40:57,740 --> 00:41:01,420
But there was no vindictiveness in him, by the way,
in this character.

560
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:04,660
He was very childishly naive in some ways.

561
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:07,780
That's why he wasn't, he was actually playing
positive person.

562
00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:12,300
He didn't play the scoundrel, the subletionist,
no, he played a positive character,

563
00:41:12,300 --> 00:41:18,000
so to speak, very good. And in
the result was this:

564
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:21,020
Chernobyl said they wanted the best
it turned out as always.

565
00:41:22,340 --> 00:41:24,620
You actually realize that you
are you doing?

566
00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:25,698
I don't understand.

567
00:41:25,700 --> 00:41:26,960
That's exactly what you don't understand.

568
00:41:27,540 --> 00:41:29,360
Have you come to the beach?

569
00:41:29,660 --> 00:41:31,860
What is it? What is it, I
I ask?

570
00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:34,100
Legs. I understand that.

571
00:41:34,380 --> 00:41:36,640
Where do you even work?

572
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:39,200
Actually, I'm an economist. Yes?

573
00:41:39,420 --> 00:41:43,000
And have you met many economists like this?
form?

574
00:41:43,820 --> 00:41:50,320
We must educate our audience.
His naked

575
00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:52,080
You can’t educate with your feet.

576
00:41:53,720 --> 00:41:57,480
In short, the matter is clear. Costumes are needed
replace, isolate legs.

577
00:41:57,960 --> 00:42:02,500
I want to talk about my situation in
group. My situation was terrible.

578
00:42:02,700 --> 00:42:09,140
On the one hand, the dust was pressing on me
with your authority, your knowledge,

579
00:42:09,140 --> 00:42:15,160
understanding of the comedy genre, understanding
situation in the country, something that I am not at all

580
00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:20,240
understood. I worked in very difficult
conditions, because everything around me is like

581
00:42:20,240 --> 00:42:23,580
if they knew how to make music
comedy. There was only one person

582
00:42:23,620 --> 00:42:29,060
who didn't know how to do it. It was
I. Because the cinema is a sacred place

583
00:42:29,060 --> 00:42:32,480
doesn't happen, so all the time everything
tried to encroach on some of my

584
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:37,560
prerogatives. Everyone told me how to do it
make a picture, give advice. And I

585
00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:39,960
I realized that if I start with each
person to argue...

586
00:42:40,540 --> 00:42:44,760
bring him to your faith. I don't have
there was neither the strength nor the time to

587
00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:47,860
make a picture. I listened, nodded my head
and did it the way I wanted.

588
00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:54,800
And since I was really stupid,
not everything worked out.

589
00:42:55,060 --> 00:42:59,660
There were a lot of reshoots. Was
over-consumption of film, over-expenditure of estimates,

590
00:42:59,660 --> 00:43:02,000
overspending and falling behind the plan.

591
00:43:02,620 --> 00:43:08,780
And they began to sound the alarm, my
well-wishers, my well-wishers,

592
00:43:08,780 --> 00:43:13,420
in quotation marks, who are in the film crew
were complaining upstairs to Pyrev.

593
00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:21,080
And then the artistic council was convened
studios. I shot just half the picture. It is necessary

594
00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:27,760
to say that Ringed showed then
remarkable courage,

595
00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:31,920
because in interiors no one cares about color
filmed.

596
00:43:32,230 --> 00:43:33,129
Just nobody.

597
00:43:33,130 --> 00:43:37,010
This applies to the operator, so I
I can praise him.

598
00:43:37,230 --> 00:43:41,350
And in general, so to speak, he is the first,
who began filming in interiors on

599
00:43:41,350 --> 00:43:46,330
color. The entire first half of the film has been filmed
in the theater of the Soviet Army in the summer, when

600
00:43:46,330 --> 00:43:49,130
the theater has gone on castrole somewhere.

601
00:43:49,370 --> 00:43:54,750
The building was empty, and there was a ringed one,
That means he turned around with all his might. You see,

602
00:43:54,870 --> 00:43:59,070
usually there were forests, there were some
arc devices. There was very...

603
00:43:59,070 --> 00:44:00,690
the film was bad.

604
00:44:01,310 --> 00:44:08,230
And there was such an amount of light for
so that it's colored

605
00:44:08,230 --> 00:44:12,550
the film turned out well, that there are actors
could fall.

606
00:44:13,130 --> 00:44:17,870
From fainting, from the heat that is so
to say, these powerful ones heated,

607
00:44:17,890 --> 00:44:22,650
huge arcs of intense combustion.
Wild ones, as they are called, meter-long ones

608
00:44:22,650 --> 00:44:24,530
the devices had yellow lights.

609
00:44:24,830 --> 00:44:29,250
It was a lot of light. And Ringed,
in general, I did, from my point of view,

610
00:44:29,330 --> 00:44:31,930
such a revolution for its time.

611
00:44:32,250 --> 00:44:35,670
But, nevertheless, this is incidental, I want
just to say.

612
00:44:35,930 --> 00:44:38,830
Although Ringed was, so to speak,
an ambiguous person.

613
00:44:40,910 --> 00:44:45,170
And so, when everyone was running there,
complained that I was falling behind and so on and

614
00:44:45,170 --> 00:44:49,830
the course of the council was appointed. But before that, I
I'll tell you a story about how I

615
00:44:49,830 --> 00:44:55,370
still had to restore order, and
so that they listen to me. It was very

616
00:44:55,370 --> 00:44:59,350
hard. Firstly, in your own
character. I once, I was absolute

617
00:44:59,350 --> 00:45:06,050
slob. I didn't understand. I was like that
soft, completely unwilling,

618
00:45:06,270 --> 00:45:10,590
optional. I could tell you
I'll call, don't call.

619
00:45:11,670 --> 00:45:13,490
Shooting at 9, could come at 10.

620
00:45:13,890 --> 00:45:20,250
And so I remember, I once came to
filming "Carnival Night". And I'm 28

621
00:45:20,250 --> 00:45:25,170
years. And there are a huge number of people there.
Masovka, about 200 or 300 people, probably.

622
00:45:26,630 --> 00:45:29,990
The actors, the entire crew. And I came
being late.

623
00:45:30,890 --> 00:45:35,510
Nobody told me anything. I was walking here
so, as it were, through three eyes that

624
00:45:35,510 --> 00:45:40,010
They looked at me, but didn’t say anything.
And I remembered this for the rest of my life. I'm after

625
00:45:40,010 --> 00:45:45,410
I've never been late for anything
nowhere. And moreover, if a person

626
00:45:45,410 --> 00:45:49,630
In general, he’s late for me now, he
he is late once, he gets a dressing down.

627
00:45:49,790 --> 00:45:52,850
He's late for the second time, he's already getting
head washer

628
00:45:53,240 --> 00:45:56,800
And the third time he is already late is not mine
film crew, but to some

629
00:45:56,800 --> 00:46:01,400
another. I'm absolutely ruthless and
I'm kicking you out. And then one day I was rehearsing in

630
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:02,800
pavilion. It was a shooting.

631
00:46:03,720 --> 00:46:06,080
I'm rehearsing some shot.

632
00:46:06,830 --> 00:46:10,970
Everything is ready, you can shoot. At this moment
you urgently to Pyryev. Well, that's not the point

633
00:46:10,970 --> 00:46:15,090
comic. That means I’m running to Pyryev.
This means that Pyryev looked at the material. Very

634
00:46:15,090 --> 00:46:18,370
he just liked it. He me
got sick. I'm returning, rooted.

635
00:46:18,670 --> 00:46:23,290
I'm walking towards the back of the set. And suddenly I hear a voice
Kolchatova. Motor!

636
00:46:24,770 --> 00:46:26,950
If you die, clap. 205, take one.

637
00:46:28,670 --> 00:46:31,150
The ringed one screams. They started and the actors
play.

638
00:46:32,240 --> 00:46:39,080
It was, so to speak, indescribable
violation of professional ethics. He doesn't

639
00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:42,680
had rights. He had the right to film without
me only on one condition. If I

640
00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:45,800
leaving, said Barkad Nikolaevich,
take this shot. Then he would have

641
00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:48,160
the right to do it. So he had no right
do this.

642
00:46:48,500 --> 00:46:51,420
I think what should I do now? There
the actors are playing, he says, stop.

643
00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:54,280
There was no time to think.

644
00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:58,500
Yelling is weakness. Well, let's start
some kind of squabble is not good.

645
00:46:58,760 --> 00:46:59,760
I'm going out.

646
00:47:00,350 --> 00:47:03,950
So, in the scenery right there, with me
I just had a moment's thought,

647
00:47:04,050 --> 00:47:06,110
I say, don’t print this take.

648
00:47:06,950 --> 00:47:11,050
Everything is calm, and I say more like this,
let's rehearse again, no matter how

649
00:47:11,050 --> 00:47:14,630
what it was, as if it had not happened. Then
Yes, I canceled. This is what took off the rings,

650
00:47:14,630 --> 00:47:19,490
you just didn't see anyone because
this was not printed in the laboratory, there, in

651
00:47:19,490 --> 00:47:23,230
in order to save positive film,
some takes are bad and were not printed. This

652
00:47:23,230 --> 00:47:27,070
it was clear that this take was kind of bad.
I didn't care how they played

653
00:47:27,110 --> 00:47:28,890
maybe they played, but it was important to me.

654
00:47:29,750 --> 00:47:33,810
put it on your own so that they understand this
director. And never like this

655
00:47:33,810 --> 00:47:35,450
amateur performance would never have happened.

656
00:47:36,450 --> 00:47:37,450
Therefore, it means

657
00:47:38,290 --> 00:47:43,830
everything. After that he realized it was a lesson
very clear, very elegant, very

658
00:47:43,830 --> 00:47:47,570
intelligent. I didn't check with him
relationships, but never anything in life

659
00:47:47,570 --> 00:47:49,370
He could no longer afford something like this.

660
00:47:50,950 --> 00:47:54,550
So, then, the rumors that...

661
00:47:55,300 --> 00:47:59,880
The young director is knocking down the picture, we've reached
General Directorate, and Pyrev appointed

662
00:47:59,880 --> 00:48:05,520
artistic council I wasn’t there myself, but there was
many directors. There are Zarkhi, Yutkevich,

663
00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:11,880
Zigan, there was some editing. And I
showed, in fact,

664
00:48:11,960 --> 00:48:16,180
the first half of “Carnival Night”,
everything that was filmed at the Soviet Theater

665
00:48:16,180 --> 00:48:17,180
army.

666
00:48:19,780 --> 00:48:23,240
Among these directors there was not one
who has ever directed a comedy.

667
00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:30,560
And such a situation occurred, which means they
they fucked up for nothing, that is, they got enough sleep

668
00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:36,600
to me with terrible force. In expressions not
embarrassed, I was nobody, I was not like that

669
00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:41,940
to be afraid, to ignore me was not
necessary. I remember how Yutkevich himself

670
00:48:41,980 --> 00:48:47,600
so to speak, so venerable,
intelligent, did not get out of

671
00:48:47,600 --> 00:48:50,360
Cannes Film Festival, always been a member
jury

672
00:48:50,940 --> 00:48:56,080
He said it was monstrous vulgarity,
that this is terrible, that, unfortunately, there is no way out

673
00:48:56,080 --> 00:49:00,620
no, because there is a big overrun and
film, and money, and deadlines. None

674
00:49:00,620 --> 00:49:02,540
the director will not undertake to finish it.

675
00:49:02,780 --> 00:49:05,740
That's why my film only has one
way.

676
00:49:06,240 --> 00:49:12,060
Let this person finish this horror and
forget about it like a nightmare. And oh

677
00:49:12,060 --> 00:49:13,540
film, and about this director.

678
00:49:14,780 --> 00:49:17,120
And everyone agreed with this matter.

679
00:49:19,260 --> 00:49:20,380
And I left.

680
00:49:20,860 --> 00:49:27,480
This was also character education.
You could fall apart, cry,

681
00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:32,620
go there refuse, swim along
flow, it's all the same shit, it's all the same

682
00:49:32,620 --> 00:49:33,960
no one needs it and so on.

683
00:49:34,220 --> 00:49:39,620
It had a completely different effect on me.
impression. I clenched my teeth and thought, well

684
00:49:39,620 --> 00:49:42,920
I'll show this tra-ta-tam what it is
in general.

685
00:49:43,260 --> 00:49:47,160
But the opinion of the artistic council was communicated to
Pyreva.

686
00:49:47,390 --> 00:49:50,870
Pyrev saw all the material in pieces.
He watched it every week.

687
00:49:52,430 --> 00:49:58,530
And Pyrev asked Mikhail Ilyich Rom,
wonderful director

688
00:49:58,610 --> 00:50:03,450
the greatest master, the person with whom
we all considered who was for us

689
00:50:03,450 --> 00:50:07,470
the personification of conscience in our cinema.
By the way, we are now in the former

690
00:50:07,470 --> 00:50:08,710
dacha of Mikhail Ilyich Roma.

691
00:50:09,390 --> 00:50:15,890
I live here because I once, already
many years ago, 15 years ago...

692
00:50:16,380 --> 00:50:21,100
I bought this house from the daughter of Mikhail Ilyich.
There was no longer either Roma or Elena

693
00:50:21,100 --> 00:50:22,180
Alexandrovna Kuzmina.

694
00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:27,000
It means she decided to sell it. And
that's how I ended up being the heir to this

695
00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:33,020
home and these wonderful walls. I think
that the spirit of Mikhail Ilyich is somehow in me

696
00:50:33,020 --> 00:50:34,580
is also present.

697
00:50:35,020 --> 00:50:39,100
In short, Rom and I are sitting together in
hall, in the studio.

698
00:50:39,340 --> 00:50:43,920
There is no one else. And the same thing goes on
what the arts council was watching.

699
00:50:44,730 --> 00:50:48,210
So, the first half of the picture. It's true
and it remains. This is the first half

700
00:50:48,210 --> 00:50:51,510
paintings. You see, what happened and what
what is in the picture.

701
00:50:52,610 --> 00:50:56,890
And Rom looks and falls out of his chair from
laughter. Laughs wildly.

702
00:50:57,190 --> 00:51:01,430
Every reprise, every witticism comes from
him with a bang. He falls and laughs

703
00:51:01,490 --> 00:51:02,490
laughs. All.

704
00:51:02,750 --> 00:51:05,590
So, he left, shook my hand, and congratulated me.

705
00:51:06,410 --> 00:51:10,610
And he went to say something to Pyrev. I think
that he told him something very good,

706
00:51:10,630 --> 00:51:14,030
because then they didn’t touch me anymore
no one ever ends the picture.

707
00:51:14,830 --> 00:51:19,550
This is how much there is, how much
some things, such as fate in general

708
00:51:19,550 --> 00:51:26,110
has some potential
to some she is merciful, to others she is not, to whom

709
00:51:26,110 --> 00:51:29,150
something... With this picture, when...

710
00:51:29,450 --> 00:51:32,830
Then they ask me, what were you thinking?
when did you make this picture? I can

711
00:51:32,830 --> 00:51:39,430
to say that I didn’t think about festivals,
neither about reviews, nor about views, nor about

712
00:51:39,430 --> 00:51:42,430
success. I only thought about one thing -
survive.

713
00:51:42,650 --> 00:51:44,710
You need to survive, and nothing more.

714
00:51:46,170 --> 00:51:52,450
In general, I must say that this
at first the attitude towards me as a debutant,

715
00:51:52,450 --> 00:51:56,470
it was not only among members
crew, but also among the actors.

716
00:51:57,080 --> 00:52:02,820
Because, well, the actors were all there too
there, someone already had some experience,

717
00:52:02,820 --> 00:52:07,280
some, so to speak, less, some
more, but this is it, so to speak, that

718
00:52:07,280 --> 00:52:10,720
we need to teach him how to do comedy,
he doesn't know.

719
00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:15,440
And it broke, of course, thanks
Igor Vladimirovich Ilyinsky.

720
00:52:15,720 --> 00:52:20,800
Ilyinsky was generally raised to respect
to the directing profession, but he worked

721
00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:24,520
with Merhold, was in the theater for many years
Merholda.

722
00:52:25,879 --> 00:52:30,300
Then at the Maly Theater, where also
the director had a respectful attitude, he

723
00:52:30,300 --> 00:52:34,360
treated me with incredible
respect. First of all, he never

724
00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:39,340
I was late for the shoot, he was never rude.
It's out of the question. It was

725
00:52:39,340 --> 00:52:43,860
absolutely intelligent
a most worthy person. He always

726
00:52:43,860 --> 00:52:48,000
consulted, he had doubts,
he had no self-confidence

727
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:53,180
gram. Absolutely he always doubted
what he does, tested it on me.

728
00:52:53,950 --> 00:52:56,550
And when the rest of the actors saw how
me...

729
00:52:57,130 --> 00:53:00,850
Igor Vladimirovich treats with what
respect, with what reverence, how he

730
00:53:00,850 --> 00:53:06,370
I advise that it is gradual
passed on to all the actors. Therefore

731
00:53:06,370 --> 00:53:10,350
I had no problems with the artists
only in this picture, but then throughout

732
00:53:10,350 --> 00:53:11,350
the rest of my life.

733
00:53:11,510 --> 00:53:16,570
It happened that way. Thanks to Igor
Ilyinsky and my relationship with

734
00:53:16,570 --> 00:53:21,330
artists, I somehow always fall in love with
actors. And they feel it. And they pay

735
00:53:21,330 --> 00:53:22,610
more the same to me too.

736
00:53:23,010 --> 00:53:24,090
And that's why...

737
00:53:26,090 --> 00:53:30,350
I also realized in the first picture that it was necessary
artists to create conditions when they

738
00:53:30,350 --> 00:53:34,950
love it when they feel it when they
it's comfortable, convenient, cozy here, when

739
00:53:34,950 --> 00:53:38,750
they open up when there is no feeling
embarrassment when allowed

740
00:53:38,750 --> 00:53:43,750
improvise. And this, in general, became
my calling card and my main

741
00:53:43,750 --> 00:53:45,110
method in working with an actor.

742
00:53:45,330 --> 00:53:50,070
Because to create these conditions...

743
00:53:52,920 --> 00:53:58,180
If something is beyond my scope
plan, I'm so soft back and forth

744
00:53:58,180 --> 00:54:04,180
-I put them back in the right direction,
so that they are off my platform

745
00:54:04,180 --> 00:54:06,940
ideas, my idea would not work.

746
00:54:07,770 --> 00:54:12,130
But they know that they are kind of allowed
everything except rudeness, tardiness,

747
00:54:12,170 --> 00:54:17,290
lack of discipline. But creative
amateur performance, in the good sense of it

748
00:54:17,290 --> 00:54:21,810
words are absolutely welcome. And I
I love artists who can

749
00:54:21,810 --> 00:54:24,850
improvise. Ilyinsky was
a wonderful improviser.

750
00:54:25,819 --> 00:54:31,020
And Lyusya Gurchenko too, actually, this is
for me and for her it was, in general,

751
00:54:31,060 --> 00:54:35,460
a real school, because for her it is
was... She played a small game before that

752
00:54:35,460 --> 00:54:39,100
role in one picture, which no one
remembers, doesn't know, I don't even remember how

753
00:54:39,100 --> 00:54:40,100
it's called.

754
00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:43,560
So, in fact, it was for her,
a debut, so to speak.

755
00:54:43,780 --> 00:54:45,320
For me it was a debut.

756
00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:51,360
For Yura Belov, an artist who, to
unfortunately, who played the electrician,

757
00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:53,140
in love with Lenochka, who...

758
00:54:54,600 --> 00:54:58,660
Left early, unfortunately, didn’t play well
as much as I could.

759
00:54:58,860 --> 00:55:01,480
The artist was very good. This is also for
it was his debut.

760
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:07,560
And I still had one like that
wonderful meeting with two very

761
00:55:07,560 --> 00:55:11,260
major artists, with Petker and
Zeldin. Boris Petker and Vladimir

762
00:55:11,260 --> 00:55:13,460
Zeldin. They were invited to play
clowns.

763
00:55:13,920 --> 00:55:18,140
And on this episode I also had,
in general, a fight with Pyrev, where, in

764
00:55:18,140 --> 00:55:19,900
In general, in the end he won.

765
00:55:20,650 --> 00:55:25,830
For me, this episode is also where Ogurtsov
undresses the clowns, brings it all already

766
00:55:25,830 --> 00:55:30,410
it's just absurd when they perform in
in their suits and say some

767
00:55:30,410 --> 00:55:37,150
slogans, was key, ideologically
key. I really wanted to

768
00:55:37,150 --> 00:55:43,850
end... When he divided them, destroyed them
this number, this reprise, and they leave

769
00:55:43,850 --> 00:55:49,050
such, some small figures on
big stage, in jackets. And one

770
00:55:49,050 --> 00:55:53,450
He says, calm down, so to speak. One
always wants to dust off, and the other one

771
00:55:53,450 --> 00:56:00,430
calms down. And plus, it's throw away. This one
shot, this is how they leave, where you feel sorry for them,

772
00:56:00,430 --> 00:56:04,790
throw away. No way. I inserted
an image for you, but it’s not in the picture

773
00:56:04,790 --> 00:56:05,790
ultimately.

774
00:56:05,980 --> 00:56:09,400
There was one more episode, the final episode,
where they dance.

775
00:56:10,680 --> 00:56:13,740
Grisha, who played Yura Belov, and
Lenochka Krylova.

776
00:56:14,440 --> 00:56:18,740
They dance and there is a confession in
love. And I think, what am I doing like this?

777
00:56:18,740 --> 00:56:24,860
some at all, some kind of asexual
picture. They seem to love, so to speak,

778
00:56:24,900 --> 00:56:25,900
in general.

779
00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:29,280
Well, to have sex, so to speak.

780
00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:34,360
So I'm filming a scene where absolutely
coming...

781
00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:38,660
Such a powerful sex scene. They
dancing.

782
00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:44,080
We understand that now they only
run to the room and stay alone. AND

783
00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:45,740
everything will happen. Do you understand?

784
00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:49,640
And Pyrev says, have you gone crazy?

785
00:56:52,600 --> 00:56:57,460
And if we take the scene separately, it was
wonderful. But from a different picture.

786
00:56:57,900 --> 00:57:01,600
She was not from this picture. I had to
reshoot it the way it is.

787
00:57:02,280 --> 00:57:04,500
“And happiness, will there be it?” Well,

788
00:57:06,340 --> 00:57:07,940
in short,

789
00:57:08,760 --> 00:57:12,380
it was already over. And here he is
also contributed.

790
00:57:12,900 --> 00:57:14,640
I must say that I...

791
00:57:15,950 --> 00:57:19,450
I remember with great pleasure
tenderness, because he wanted me

792
00:57:19,450 --> 00:57:25,630
good. Of course he talked to me
several unusual methods, so

793
00:57:25,630 --> 00:57:31,590
not accepted. Not even an official
would behave with me, but he

794
00:57:31,590 --> 00:57:32,590
this...

795
00:57:34,160 --> 00:57:38,520
I understood that he wanted the best for me. And in
As a result, he was always right

796
00:57:38,520 --> 00:57:44,420
ultimately. Because compare
it is impossible. I wanted to do something a little different

797
00:57:44,420 --> 00:57:48,840
picture. I wanted to make the picture more
harsher, more terrible, more

798
00:57:48,840 --> 00:57:51,080
truthful, less carnival.

799
00:57:51,380 --> 00:57:56,120
And Perev wanted to do just that. He understood
that only in this atmosphere...

800
00:57:56,440 --> 00:58:01,040
a sharp satirical idea may pass,
you understand. I think that he, so to speak,

801
00:58:01,100 --> 00:58:05,440
was right, because he is about this country,
after all, he had lived in it longer and

802
00:58:05,440 --> 00:58:09,780
drank from her, so to speak, significantly
more than me, a beginner, so

803
00:58:09,780 --> 00:58:10,900
say boy.

804
00:58:14,070 --> 00:58:17,470
Still, so to speak, the picture was difficult
do for one more simple reason.

805
00:58:17,490 --> 00:58:22,310
The script was really unimportant,
you know, but to see something in him, well,

806
00:58:22,390 --> 00:58:25,690
in general, so to speak, already an ordinary person
as if I couldn’t, you know. It's like

807
00:58:25,690 --> 00:58:28,590
Pyrev felt, I, it turned out, so to speak,
felt.

808
00:58:29,430 --> 00:58:35,010
But in the midst of filming a newspaper appeared
"Soviet culture" when it is like this

809
00:58:35,010 --> 00:58:37,170
That's what the article was called.

810
00:58:38,520 --> 00:58:43,640
Kirka Konstantinovna Paramonova, who
was then the editor of the film committee, which

811
00:58:43,640 --> 00:58:48,080
here is a young director at Mosfilm
is making another vulgar comedy based on

812
00:58:48,080 --> 00:58:52,760
vulgar scenario, what's it like
it's a pity that it's like this, and so on, and so on

813
00:58:52,760 --> 00:58:58,960
further. It was such an absolute funeral
you understand. So this all happened in

814
00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:04,460
atmosphere. This is how we managed to survive
keep a good mood and invest

815
00:59:04,460 --> 00:59:09,620
this is the mood in the picture, this is of course
This is, perhaps, my most important merit,

816
00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:13,880
I would say so. Because in this
the atmosphere, of course, to break, which means

817
00:59:13,980 --> 00:59:19,120
spit on it all, leave altogether
it would have been easier to return to the chronicle

818
00:59:19,120 --> 00:59:22,740
and simpler. And here it was all necessary
do in spite of, in spite of.

819
00:59:22,940 --> 00:59:26,440
No, of course, I had allies,
there were artists for me...

820
00:59:27,340 --> 00:59:32,100
after all, the studio director himself helped,
This, of course, was not a big deal either.

821
00:59:32,740 --> 00:59:38,620
But, nevertheless, the situation was very
unimportant. This artistic council, I remember before

822
00:59:38,620 --> 00:59:42,660
this is all to this day, and I remember it in great detail,
and I remember who performed there, I don’t name them

823
00:59:42,660 --> 00:59:43,900
everyone. Picture...

824
00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:48,360
She was overspending by a million rubles.
This was a huge overrun.

825
00:59:48,580 --> 00:59:53,600
Another thing is that she returned it with such
more than what, you know, was there

826
00:59:53,600 --> 00:59:58,660
behind the plan, but still she
was ready. And on New Year's Day she went out to

827
00:59:58,660 --> 01:00:05,580
screens. On December 28, 1956 she came out
on the screens. And I remember before

828
01:00:05,580 --> 01:00:09,840
there were several premieres, I'm now
I'll tell you about the premieres.

829
01:00:10,380 --> 01:00:13,060
So, there was such a situation there.

830
01:00:13,420 --> 01:00:15,000
Premiere, first showing of the film.

831
01:00:15,300 --> 01:00:20,720
And the authors either invented it or took it from
some American painting. I don't

832
01:00:20,720 --> 01:00:24,400
I know it doesn't interest me, but it's fiction
and the find was great.

833
01:00:25,000 --> 01:00:26,020
There was a caption. End.

834
01:00:27,780 --> 01:00:31,820
People start to get up. And even in
in a minute, in a minute Ogurtsov shouts.

835
01:00:31,840 --> 01:00:35,360
For everything that happened here today, I
I don't bear any responsibility.

836
01:00:36,240 --> 01:00:41,280
And after that he made such a grimace,
that means blackout, title, end

837
01:00:41,280 --> 01:00:45,420
film. At the first premiere, naturally,
The mechanic was not told anything.

838
01:00:46,060 --> 01:00:48,500
That means it's over, and he turns off the lights.

839
01:00:48,800 --> 01:00:52,140
That is, it turns off the lights and turns off
apparatus.

840
01:00:53,460 --> 01:00:55,160
Well, I thought I would just die.

841
01:00:55,420 --> 01:01:00,380
And the authors, I thought, would die there, you know.
After that, every time, every time.

842
01:01:01,120 --> 01:01:05,420
I ran to the mechanic and warned that
When the credits roll, it's over. So that he doesn't

843
01:01:05,420 --> 01:01:09,600
turned on the light and didn't turn it off
film projection equipment. What else is there

844
01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:10,720
Next comes the film.

845
01:01:13,080 --> 01:01:18,100
It would seem that everything is fine. After that no
cut down. If you forgot, be sure to

846
01:01:18,100 --> 01:01:19,680
this piece was missing.

847
01:01:20,640 --> 01:01:22,480
30 years pass.

848
01:01:23,460 --> 01:01:27,000
Yes, I think it was even in the beginning
90s.

849
01:01:30,090 --> 01:01:34,870
On the first television channel there is
"Carnival Night" I somehow accidentally

850
01:01:34,870 --> 01:01:38,510
I find myself near the TV, and that’s the end
the painting comes with me.

851
01:01:39,090 --> 01:01:42,950
That means it’s over and he’s cut off.

852
01:01:43,270 --> 01:01:47,250
And this is the first screen, the first channel, this is on
the whole country.

853
01:01:48,430 --> 01:01:54,990
And I write a letter, an angry letter in general,
so to speak, to the general directorate

854
01:01:54,990 --> 01:02:00,630
channel, Konstantin Georgievich Ernst,
there's someone else there. Well, I'm just outraged

855
01:02:00,630 --> 01:02:05,150
depths of the soul, what kind of ignoramus is this, who
it was installed, why don’t they check who

856
01:02:05,150 --> 01:02:06,950
puts and so on. Well, in general, a lot
what.

857
01:02:09,530 --> 01:02:16,310
And in a week, maybe two
weeks, I don't remember.

858
01:02:18,520 --> 01:02:23,500
"Carnival Night" is shown second
once with this, and goes all out, all out

859
01:02:23,500 --> 01:02:27,640
country, we bring you changes, Ildar
Alexandrovich.

860
01:02:28,740 --> 01:02:34,680
I've never had anything like this in my life.
It was just television apologizing to

861
01:02:34,680 --> 01:02:36,420
me for doing this.

862
01:02:37,070 --> 01:02:43,090
In general, when the picture went, then there,
Of course, there were some dangers. Pyrev is here

863
01:02:43,090 --> 01:02:47,950
played the role of a shock absorber. Because he
was running, then there was Minister Mikhailov,

864
01:02:48,030 --> 01:02:53,570
Minister of Culture He ran there and
anticipated something like this. It wasn't like that there

865
01:02:53,570 --> 01:02:57,450
simple. After all, the picture passed without a single
amendments. There was nothing cut out of her,

866
01:02:57,630 --> 01:02:59,290
which was also unheard of.

867
01:03:00,090 --> 01:03:03,450
But I want to talk about how I
showed a picture.

868
01:03:03,800 --> 01:03:07,960
Grigory Mikhailovich Kozintsev, his
to the teacher. This is also very interesting

869
01:03:07,960 --> 01:03:11,060
history. This is before the New Year.

870
01:03:11,560 --> 01:03:17,160
We already know that the picture is good. Was
premiere at the Moscow House of Cinema.

871
01:03:17,380 --> 01:03:23,060
Elsewhere we showed in different
places. They later wrote about us that

872
01:03:23,060 --> 01:03:27,660
Ryazanov and Gurchenko woke up after
this film is famous.

873
01:03:27,860 --> 01:03:29,760
I always said, in different beds.

874
01:03:30,060 --> 01:03:31,700
In different beds.

875
01:03:34,090 --> 01:03:36,790
carnival night for the premiere in
Leningrad.

876
01:03:37,510 --> 01:03:42,930
Both authors also arrived, Boris Laskin,
Vladimir Polyakov, and Arkady Koltsaty,

877
01:03:43,030 --> 01:03:45,670
operator, and Lyudmila Gurchenko, and Linsky
there wasn't.

878
01:03:47,600 --> 01:03:51,480
And the Cinema House was very small then, it
was located on Nevsky.

879
01:03:52,440 --> 01:03:56,580
Well, there were probably 200 seats there, maybe
be, so, in the hall, no more.

880
01:03:56,880 --> 01:04:01,480
And so there were 4 sessions. Two sessions per
Saturday and two sessions on Sunday,

881
01:04:01,480 --> 01:04:02,560
so that everyone can see it.

882
01:04:04,240 --> 01:04:08,680
This means that the first session is underway with great
success, everything is great. Second session

883
01:04:08,680 --> 01:04:12,500
is going with great success. Kozintsev is not there.
Kozintsev is my teacher.

884
01:04:13,210 --> 01:04:19,290
He taught me for 5.5 years at VGIK, he treated me
It doesn't matter to me very much.

885
01:04:19,970 --> 01:04:25,450
In my second year he said that, you know,
Elik, you and I will have to part ways.

886
01:04:25,530 --> 01:04:32,130
He said, let's give me a deuce
directing I say Gregory

887
01:04:32,130 --> 01:04:33,650
Mikhailovich, how, what, why?

888
01:04:34,810 --> 01:04:36,930
He says, well, you are too young.

889
01:04:37,320 --> 01:04:40,720
And the answer saved me. I said Gregory
Mikhailovich, but when you two years ago

890
01:04:40,720 --> 01:04:45,380
I was accepted, you might have noticed it
then. I was even younger then.

891
01:04:45,850 --> 01:04:49,970
He said yes, yes, yes, okay, to hell with it
you, learn. And so I mean

892
01:04:50,090 --> 01:04:55,350
hobbled to the end. When I was defending
diploma, he didn’t defend my diploma

893
01:04:55,350 --> 01:05:00,370
arrived. And the chairman of the State Economic Forum,
State Investment Commission,

894
01:05:00,390 --> 01:05:04,810
there was Sergei Dmitrievich Vasiliev, a classic,
one of the authors of the film "Chapaev". And he

895
01:05:04,810 --> 01:05:10,510
I sent my marks to my students with it. And
I didn't get a very good grade there,

896
01:05:10,510 --> 01:05:11,388
as I know.

897
01:05:11,390 --> 01:05:15,450
But Sergei Dmitrievich did not listen, he
I liked my diploma, I received it. He was

898
01:05:15,450 --> 01:05:17,170
excellent, received a diploma with honors.

899
01:05:17,830 --> 01:05:22,090
Then, it means, as it were, a relationship with
Grigory Mikhailovich, well, it wasn’t. I

900
01:05:22,090 --> 01:05:24,610
worked on a newsreel, he was in Leningrad.

901
01:05:25,190 --> 01:05:29,370
And we respected him very much, we were afraid,
admired and revered him.

902
01:05:30,050 --> 01:05:34,670
So it's Sunday, the third session,
in the afternoon at 30 pm.

903
01:05:35,130 --> 01:05:36,130
Kozintsev is not there.

904
01:05:36,910 --> 01:05:42,230
Last session, in the evening we leave for
arrow. At 7 o'clock in the evening, at 5-7,

905
01:05:42,530 --> 01:05:44,330
Kozintsev is not there.

906
01:05:44,760 --> 01:05:47,820
And then I dial his home phone number.

907
01:05:48,580 --> 01:05:52,560
And it is already known that he could come, because
that he already knew that the picture

908
01:05:52,560 --> 01:05:55,820
it's good that she has a wonderful
reputation, a lot of admirers

909
01:05:55,820 --> 01:05:57,560
there were reviews, and so on, and so on.

910
01:05:58,060 --> 01:06:00,640
But he didn’t seem to believe, so to speak,
obviously.

911
01:06:00,960 --> 01:06:04,260
I say, Grigory Mikhailovich, I say
on the phone to him, here I am, a picture

912
01:06:04,260 --> 01:06:07,420
brought, I would really like you to
they looked at her.

913
01:06:08,900 --> 01:06:09,900
Pause.

914
01:06:10,700 --> 01:06:13,460
Apparently he looked at his watch and said,
hold back the finances.

915
01:06:14,540 --> 01:06:19,220
I went. Well, Kozintsev in Leningrad is
It was like hell.

916
01:06:19,640 --> 01:06:23,640
It was, so to speak, one of the most
big respected people. Session

917
01:06:23,640 --> 01:06:27,620
detained. Kozintsev came and looked
picture.

918
01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:34,020
He came out, came up to me and said yes,
I didn’t teach you any of this.

919
01:06:36,340 --> 01:06:39,220
After that, he and I stepped on
wonderful relationship.

920
01:06:39,620 --> 01:06:43,620
When I was in Leningrad, I told him
called, sometimes visited him at home. I

921
01:06:43,620 --> 01:06:48,040
I received a letter from him that I am their favorite
director of his family that they are on mine

922
01:06:48,040 --> 01:06:49,340
The whole family goes to movies.

923
01:06:49,560 --> 01:06:52,200
This is the situation with my teacher.

924
01:06:52,480 --> 01:06:57,840
It was also funny how we arrived at
cinema "Udarnik". where took place

925
01:06:57,840 --> 01:07:03,960
first Moscow premiere. We arrived
with Koltsat. And Koltsat is already like an experienced

926
01:07:03,960 --> 01:07:06,460
the filmmaker said, now we’ll take it
interviews with viewers.

927
01:07:06,820 --> 01:07:10,100
So, well, no one, naturally, is in
I didn't know the face. Its also operators, and

928
01:07:10,100 --> 01:07:15,880
the director too, they are all on the other side
screen. And that means he starts, he

929
01:07:15,880 --> 01:07:20,080
asks that the audience, I’m uncomfortable. And
such amazing reviews,

930
01:07:20,120 --> 01:07:21,120
amazing.

931
01:07:22,350 --> 01:07:27,350
In short, then it began
the triumphant life of this film, which

932
01:07:27,350 --> 01:07:34,130
it's still going on for me
incredibly pleasing and surprising. But there were

933
01:07:34,130 --> 01:07:39,290
there are stories, for example, in 1957,
six months later we went...

934
01:07:39,790 --> 01:07:45,030
Me, Yuri Belov and Tamara Nosova, who
I played the secretary, I played it wonderfully,

935
01:07:45,090 --> 01:07:50,010
Let's go to the GDR. This was the first trip
abroad What was going on there? Nobody

936
01:07:50,010 --> 01:07:54,750
expected that the elder brother, gloomy,
armed, will send such a light one,

937
01:07:54,750 --> 01:07:59,350
satirical musical picture. There
when we are in some textile city

938
01:07:59,350 --> 01:08:03,530
showed, then Yura Belova simply
torn. He left there two years without

939
01:08:03,530 --> 01:08:06,050
jacket He was torn to pieces
practically.

940
01:08:07,320 --> 01:08:14,260
When we arrived in the GDR, that means we
first trip, Yura and I,

941
01:08:14,300 --> 01:08:19,439
it means they typed something like that from the world
along the thread to arrive in something.

942
01:08:19,680 --> 01:08:26,340
And suddenly, it means the plane lands in
Berlin, Schonnifeld airport,

943
01:08:26,340 --> 01:08:30,779
two German border guards enter,
They say Herr Ryazanov and Herr Belov.

944
01:08:31,279 --> 01:08:34,819
We get up so scared. Well you guys
you can't imagine the time.

945
01:08:36,109 --> 01:08:40,830
Please, all passengers are detained.
We're coming from somewhere behind, across the whole

946
01:08:40,830 --> 01:08:43,890
plane, we go out onto the ramp, and there it stands
crowd.

947
01:08:44,270 --> 01:08:48,069
Circus performers with bears, newsreels,
photojournalists, all famous

948
01:08:48,069 --> 01:08:52,910
GDR actors. Damn what's going on
such an incredible meeting.

949
01:08:53,569 --> 01:08:59,109
In the evening it was shown before the film.
I saw how terrible we were with him

950
01:08:59,109 --> 01:09:00,109
dressed.

951
01:09:01,060 --> 01:09:04,660
Before, when we arrived, for example, in
cinema "Babilon", it is still there

952
01:09:04,660 --> 01:09:09,580
there is a festival cinema,
there was an orchestra that played in general, so

953
01:09:09,580 --> 01:09:13,760
say it was raining there, under the umbrellas
the orchestra was playing, there was a huge crowd,

954
01:09:13,760 --> 01:09:18,439
who asked for an extra ticket, a triumph. And
when we left Germany, we left

955
01:09:18,439 --> 01:09:22,620
to Czechoslovakia from Dresden, lived on
road, on the platform, I remember

956
01:09:22,720 --> 01:09:27,720
orchestra in blue tailcoats, and someone
played, so to speak, in our honor. Such

957
01:09:27,720 --> 01:09:31,899
never again, never in my life
stuck. I don't have one picture

958
01:09:31,899 --> 01:09:37,500
it was. But the Germans simply went crazy. And how
final, I’ll tell you about Germany again.

959
01:09:37,540 --> 01:09:43,779
In 1997, exactly 40 years after
release of "Carnival Night", me

960
01:09:43,779 --> 01:09:49,060
invited to Potsdam for a festival with
the film "Hello Fools". And then

961
01:09:49,060 --> 01:09:54,240
the builders were very much instructed,
so that I would definitely be at the opening.

962
01:09:54,590 --> 01:09:58,050
Well, I might not have come to the opening there,
my film is not there. Well, you never know. Very

963
01:09:58,050 --> 01:09:59,170
instructed. I didn't understand.

964
01:09:59,390 --> 01:10:05,310
And I come and find out what opens
festival with the film “Carnival Nights”.

965
01:10:05,310 --> 01:10:09,730
By the way, it was dubbed. This is old
copy, they just printed a new one. Sound

966
01:10:09,730 --> 01:10:13,350
Studio Def made it. That's how it was for me
I feel like it was filmed in German

967
01:10:13,350 --> 01:10:16,010
language. Amazing synchronicity, similar
voices.

968
01:10:16,650 --> 01:10:22,050
And now 40 years later I'm watching
I'm going, there are a lot of people in Podzdam now

969
01:10:22,050 --> 01:10:23,050
film schools

970
01:10:24,090 --> 01:10:27,750
Young audience, that is, there are several
older people, but mostly young people

971
01:10:27,750 --> 01:10:30,850
sitting. The reaction was one to one, like 40
years ago.

972
01:10:31,090 --> 01:10:35,390
I was amazed that there is no longer
Ogurtsov. Then they are very much on Ogurtsova

973
01:10:35,390 --> 01:10:41,250
reacted the Germans, who in the depths
souls hated this communist

974
01:10:41,250 --> 01:10:45,490
build. They were happy when they
they saw Ogurtsov being taken to the boxes.

975
01:10:45,960 --> 01:10:50,380
somewhere crawling on all fours under the stage,
How does he even fall through the hatch and so on?

976
01:10:50,380 --> 01:10:55,440
further. And there was an amazing reaction.

977
01:10:56,580 --> 01:11:00,280
The young people laughed and fell
chairs, and then there was a 10-minute

978
01:11:00,280 --> 01:11:03,240
ovation. But this simply does not happen.

979
01:11:03,500 --> 01:11:07,860
I’m just telling it like code. In general
There was a lot going on with this picture.

980
01:11:08,260 --> 01:11:10,480
It was also demonstrated in Japan.

981
01:11:11,080 --> 01:11:17,580
And received a festival in Edinburgh, and in
Brussels somewhere, there

982
01:11:17,580 --> 01:11:22,800
I received some prizes. So that's it
it was great, and so it began

983
01:11:22,800 --> 01:11:24,980
my life in cinema.

984
01:11:27,440 --> 01:11:28,440
All.
