Alexey Batalov actor biography

The latest news biography Alexei Batalov gained worldwide fame after the release of the painting “Moscow does not believe in tears”, but the celebrity has many other successful projects. Years after the death of the actor, fans continue to remember each of his heroes and review the ribbons marked by both critics and spectators. Childhood and Youth Alexei Vladimirovich Batalov was born in November in Vladimir, by national origin he is half Russian, half the Pole.

The future actor grew up in a theater family. The boy grew up surrounded by theatrical scenery and famous artists. Alexey was still a child when his parents decided to divorce. Mother soon married Viktor Ardov, whom the boy considered the second father. He respectfully treated every undertaking stepson, tried to support and instruct him. In this marriage, Nina Olshevskaya gave birth to two more sons - Mikhail and Boris.

The youngest of them is the father of the actress Anna Borisovna Ardova - the niece of Batalova. At first, the newly made family was hard. Behind the thin wall was the former wife of Victor. But soon they moved to a new apartment, where they lived among the creative intelligentsia. A significant influence on the formation of Alexei was exerted by the poetess Anna Akhmatova, who was a frequent guest in their house.

In one of the interviews, Batalov joked that he saw Anna Andreevna more often than her own grandmother. Akhmatova taught him manners and proper speech, introduced him to the history of Moscow. She never openly raised the boy, but knew how to convey the information so that he unconsciously absorbed her like a sponge. It was the poetess who was the first to appreciate his attempts to write poetry, but she noticed a talent for drawing.

And after returning from the army, Alexei received a valuable gift from her - money for the first car. Upon learning of the purchase of a car, the poetess asked only one thing: “What, there was no jacket? Having the opportunity to see such people, the boy could not help but be imbued with a craving for creativity. But his acting talent for the first time manifested itself, already when the family was evacuated.

After the outbreak of war, Nina and three sons, the youngest of whom was a little more than a year, sent Bugulma to the Tatar city. There, Alexei’s mother organized a theater, where he first performed the duties of a scene employee. But soon the young man entrusted the first role, albeit without words. Even then, Batalov realized that he wanted to connect life with the theater, even if not as an actor, but to be closer to art.

He studied at the workshop of Sergei Blinnikov and Viktor Stanitsyn. At that time, the guy already had experience on the stage and on the screen, but popularity came much later. He served in the theater of the Soviet Army, where he mainly performed the duties of a backstage worker, but in his free time he could play for his pleasure. But relations with the theater did not work out as the performer imagined-he was offered mainly small roles that seemed some kind of slurred.

Tired of waiting for merits from fate and leadership, Batalov decided to leave the theater and focus on screen work. The choice turned out to be justified. Alexey debuted films with Alexei Batalov in the cinema in the far year. He later recalled how filmmakers came to the school, who wanted to invite the best students to the site. The young man has never been so diligent, and this has not left without attention.

In the film "Zoya" about Zoe Kosmodemyanskaya he had to play a classmate of the main character. Already having a theater university’s diploma in his hands, Batalov returned to the screens. The young artist was lucky to attract the attention of director Joseph Heifitz, who approved him for the role of Zhurbin in the drama "Big Family". Especially for filming, the contractor mastered the craft of a worker worker, which made the image even more believable.

The Union with Hyphic was so successful that later the actor and director had repeatedly worked together. In an interview, Alexei said that Joseph Efimovich for him like Pope Carlo for Pinocchio - put a real artist out of the log. Already their first joint work was awarded the awards of the Cannes Film Festival, and they spoke about Batalov as an ascending celebrity. At the site, the actor came up with driving skills and a long -standing love for cars, because he had to play the driver.

Later, Alexei said that the image of Rumyantsev turned out to be something like a journal, but both of them have common features with him. Among the celebrity’s favorite works is the piercing drama “Cranes are flying, shot through the story of Victor Rozov. The role of the courageous and intelligent Boris did not leave the Soviet spectators indifferent, and the screen love story with the heroine of Tatyana Samoilova was recognized as one of the most dramatic.

In Cannes, the tape was awarded the Golden Palm branch. Even then, the actor starred a lot and often, playing mainly the main roles. In the year, the melodrama “My dear man” came out, in which Alexei once again appeared before the audience in the image of a positive hero. His Vladimir is a talented doctor in love with his profession.After the premiere, many Soviet boys wanted to devote themselves to medicine.

The fateful for Batalov was the participation in the film "Lady with a Dog" on Anton Chekhov. Joseph Kheifitz risked when he took to the ambiguous role of Gurov, an actor who loved the audience of the USSR in the image of an honest hard worker. But Alexei coped brilliantly, thereby expanding the facets of acting potential. While writing the script, Daniil Krybrovitsky clearly represented the image of Batalov, but the director Mikhail Romm was not agreeing with his candidate.

At that time, the performer suffered from vision problems, he was contraindicated for the bright light of the Sofites. But the creators still sent a script to Alexei, after which he rushed to the site and announced the desire to act, despite the risks. It was impossible to refuse. As a result, the film was accepted by the audience with enthusiasm. This was not the only time that the actor risked health on the set.

For the sake of participating in the three fat tape, he studied for almost a year the skill of the canor -landers. In this celebrity, a wife, a professional circus, helped.

The project, even if the critics remained unattended, but fell in love with Soviet children. The next movie masterpiece, with the participation of the performer, was recognized the drama "Star of captivating happiness" about the uprising of the Decembrists. Batalov got a small but vivid role of Prince Trubetskoy, whom he tried to show a man of honor. After that, the actor’s filmography continued to replenish, but not so regularly, and with the advent of the new century, he completely disappeared from the screens.

The last work in the cinema was a short appearance in the tape "Carnival Night - 2, or 50 years later." His intellectual worker Gosha captured the minds of the spectators for a long time, and the artist began to be considered almost a sex symbol of Soviet cinema. He received letters from fans who dreamed of getting an autograph or photo of the idol.

It is noteworthy that Batalov did not consider Gosha the role of so amazing and did not distinguish from a number of other screen images. Such a loud success was a surprise for him. The director having an impressive baggage of screen roles, the artist wanted to try himself on the other side of the camera. His directorial debut was the film "Overcoat" for Nikolai Gogol.

The main role in the drama was played by Rolan Bykov, but she had no much success. Later, the artist participated in the creation of the Three Fat Flood tape, where he was responsible for the role of Tibula and for directing. The last in the list of projects shot by a celebrity was the "player". After that, Alexey Vladimirovich left the director's profession. He explained this decision by moving to Moscow from Leningrad, where the crew remained.

It was not possible to collect the new one. But in the life of celebrities there were radio feeds. Each of his works remains a model of a radio show, perfectly set, played and retained the thought and character of the author. Books and sounding life and acting experience formed the basis of books written by the artist. The first of them, “Fate and Craft”, went out in the year in the publishing house “Art”.

In addition to the cinema and writing books, the performer was engaged in voicing. He gave a voice to the characters of cartoons, art and documentary paintings. Batalov approached each work with responsibility and professionalism. Personal life in an interview with Alexey Vladimirovich admitted that in his youth he was timid and shy in communication with the opposite sex. The childhood friend Irina Rotova was his first wife.

They got married shortly after graduation, a daughter Nadezhda was born in the family. But the early marriage was not happy, a divorce followed. He became interested in it from the first meeting, but managed to get married only after 10 years. The wife gave Alexei Vladimirovich daughter Maria Batalov. But during the birth, the baby was injured, caused by cerebral palsy.

She learned to the screenwriter, became a famous writer. Batalov considered Masha a talented and smart girl, his joy, and shortly before his death, he bequeathed to her all condition. Aleksey Vladimirovich lived with Gitana Leontenko for 50 years, and no one doubted his love and fidelity to his wife. However, in the year, the press appeared shocking statements by the former administrator of the Moskonzer Nina Fedorova, who called the actor the biological father of Maria Golubkina.

The artist and her mother hastened to refute this information, calling her "delirium." In recent years, a country conflict has overshadowed the conflict with neighbors in the country.
