He was never accepted into the competition in his life, simply fearing that suddenly someone else would like this movie then from the jury, from the filmmakers, you can expect everything, they will take it and give the victory to balabanov, it was completely impossible to allow this from the point of view of western cinematography. There was very little money there was practically none, on film, on camera, but i filmed in all the places where i know something, seryozha, an unusual, very such a character, and then we sat on the beach in a cafe, drank beer, i think, i didnt i already remember, it was during the day, it was a sunny day, i told him, lets make a movie together, but there wont be any money, he was like. He just said come on , thats it, i didnt take him as an artist, but as a person who well, well, with me, i wasnt a director yet, so big then, although i had already made three films there before, professional ones, i mean, but i didnt like myself felt this way, but balabanov, perhaps, didnt give a damn about it, he. Followed his line, as was sung in the song in the film brother2, and i suggest watching a fragment from his brother, which fits this line quite well, lets go home with us, its good there, what am i going to do there, but what are you doing here, and i like it here, america has all the power in the world, where is the power, brother, thats what . Money is all the power, brother, money rules the world and the one who has more of it is stronger, okay, thats a lot of money, and what are you going to do, ill buy them all, and me, danilo was a man who could actually make a goats horn, and the frontline past was clearly discernible in him, every time he rented an apartment, he looked through and figured out escape routes, back doors, and so on, having arrived in st. Petersburg, he did not immediately go to his brother and maybe he couldnt even explain why, he spends the first night somewhere either in the attic, or in the basement, among garbage bags, but he comes to his brother already armed, which is also important, perhaps he wanted to feel the revolver on pocket, this is very serious and says a lot about person, while they said about brother danil he did everything great, a professional, it is deeply paradoxically symptomatic that, uh , a wonderful biography of alexei ktebrinovich was written by a lady who is the main lobbyist for domestic feminism, at least among film critics, maria yurievna kuvshinova, and marusya thus, she stepped on the throat of her atlantic song, although she acted in a purely american style, she did not express her thoughts about certain paintings, but chose about 20 people who knew balabanov best, including people from his environment and people slightly from the outside who are able to evaluate him from some neighboring territories, it warms me that i was included in this number, and maria herself spent hours interviewing these. People with a voice recorder, about alexei himself, about how he understood the life around him, we got a rather voluminous picture, uh, which, in general, uh, was recognized by everyone the russian public, the book went through several reprints, it completely answers the task. True, masha seemed to feel that she had gone too far prompted by the character and began to publish her texts about the fact that, in particular, as it seems to her, the main character of the film brother is not brother danil himself, but a german, as a general person, a bearer of character. To this i will say that with with the same success we can say that the main character of the book about baratina is a cricket, he is also a bearer of a moral imperative, he also says the right things, but still, frankly speaking, the main character is the acting hero, the wooden man buratina, the brother himself was some wooden man, he could protect himself completely, but frankly speaking, only a Single Person is completely invulnerable , people who fall into the same orbit with him are under threat, as for his friend sveta, fully understanding the abomination of his own brother, he calls with her apartment to him, and. And thus sets her up, because brother vitya immediately writes down the number, then leads all the gang on him, in the same way, he takes a very big risk in the thieves apartment, the director stepan accidentally wandered there, to whom danila he says that of course i dont really like directors, but youre a normal guy, no one will touch you here, i promise you, after which, completely irresponsibly, he leaves to watch butusov, and if he hadnt returned and hesitated for at least a minute, then of course, stepan too threatened with immediate death, another thing is that all this was redeemed by the absolutely excellent charismatic smile of Sergei Bodrov jr. , everyone was in love with him , at that moment the gangster theme was absolutely dominant in cinema, all the films, the best films about bandits, were bad, brother, boomer and the brigade, following the time without a state, the time has come for a relative order of stability of calm, some sudden abundance for our population, accustomed to difficulties, and this period was best expressed in my opinion by the redberry zorok, here, of course, some kind of consensus decision. For this person no, but i continue to insist that he is the best exponent of this period, as for modern times, and the director who will express it in the most accurate and beautiful way has not yet come to the fore, but what this is still the number one director, the main director of National Cinema, this is not always the person who collects the biggest box office, it is almost never a person recognized by National Intellectual circles, the main director, the number one director is the person who most accurately and clearly conveys the state of the national mentality in a given specific period of time, and as for our National Cinema, in the first 30 years of soviet power, the main director of the country was joseph veserenovich. Its unlikely that there was anyone who was able to stick to his line, or rather, there was such a person, his name was Sergey Mikhailovich ezenstein, imagine, the fact is that ezenstein considered himself a figure absolutely equal to stalin, he felt incredible respect for people capable of turning the world upside down, he considered himself the same, he was not at all afraid of them, arrests, or any stalinist influence, only with such a worldview was it possible to do what he ultimately did, that is, he reflected some movement, some change, mass expression of the will of nations, which at first seemed spontaneous, but then acquired some, some organized features, in battleship potemkin, in the strike in october, achilless cock. It is nemoki who achieves the emotional effect. With his hyperbolism, with his emphasis on the camera and some excess of acting, as soon as sound came to cinema, immediately all the emotionality went to waste, misenstein tried how he could extend the period of silent cinema in mexico, where there was, of course, sound cinema bad due to technological backwardness. And then Alexander Nevsky made a not very successful film, full of some kind of excessive pathos, uh, finally, on ivan the terrible, he figured out how to bring back silent cinema, he moved on to truly operatic aesthetics, majestic scenery, music of his constant collaborator the great Sergei Sergeevich prokofiev, constant either dancing in the frame, or negotiations with such demonic harsh recitative in the style of classical opera, they were able to renew the spectacular emotionality, since esenstein, however, no one else could, when he died, the place of the Main National director remained vacant for quite a long time, primarily because the country was changing in some way, moving from bolshevik absolutism with stalin khrushchov to the still collegial brezhnev leadership, the system changed slightly, people were not ready to express this, there is a feeling that during the 11 years of khrushchevs rule, no serious and accurate exponent of the surrounding life appeared, but he appeared in the same way after the brezhnev coup in 1964, in 1965, a film by Leonid Gaidai was released. And other adventures of shurik, the fact is that it was at this moment that the middle class began to take shape in soviet russia, with its very specific, urban approach to the realities of life, to the needs of certain freedoms, and so on, and the unconditional representatives of the middle class were shurik and on the one hand, and the successor of his work, Semyon Semyonovich gorbunkov, on the other. Was the First Student on the big screen in many years, Nikita Sergeevich hated students, for 11 for years, not a single picture was released in which a student would be a positive character, shurik was actually the first, and he not only crammed lectures and answered evidence, but behaved like a fullfledged romantic hero, fought with punks on balalaikas, then fought with them on rapiers , wrapped lumpin in wallpaper and carried out educational work with him, and this clearly made an indelible impression on the most beautiful girls in moscow and the Moscow Region of the near transcaucasus. What, where, when, autumn series of games. Final tomorrow, after the program time. Hey, its been a while see you, the dragon missed you. Take away the ready one in zhik zhik zhik some on the new one who on the new liber, i want it to be a catfish, but in my opinion, im not sleeping, im rooting for you. God, what a man, i want a son from you, i want a daughter from you, our ears are together, fantastic, the next level from october 27 on fridays on the first. This is still the burn with fire podcast and i, its host, Denis Gorelov, with a story about the most important events of National Cinema of the past 30 years, about the leading trends the development of National Cinema and where it is going will move in the very near future. As for the senior economist of giproryba, Semyon Semyonovich gorpulunkov, he was a bearer of deeply traditional values and resisted in every possible way. Various temptations offered by the foreign world, where he traveled on the steamboat mikhail svetlov, and uh, the bearers of the ideology of this world , gesha and lyolik, ah, Semyon Semyonovich stood firm, rejected both gold and diamonds, and a robe with motherofpearl buttons, and even in general, at critical moments he would give me a beer, if he went out drinking, he would definitely. At the same time he sang the Russian National anthem, a song about hares, these were the main people of the emerging new world, and another thing is that in the seventies , gaidais cinema really deteriorated, and perhaps not through his fault, the fact is that reality has deteriorated, and inside the new middle class its own rather specific layer of swindlers and moneygrubbers has appeared. And the gaidai simply could not help but notice it, on the one hand, because he was quite a sensitive, understanding artist, on the other hand, because he himself he loved money very much, he didnt hide it, there are 12 chairs in the film, all the heroes were swindlers, there can be no pozashchenko in the film, all the heroes were swindlers, and even in the film incognito from st. Petersburg according to the auditor, all the heroes were also swindlers, even in Ivan Vasilyevich me. Profession, the weight of the swindlers was such that it is quite difficult to say who is the main character in the film, and Ivan Vasilyevich appears quite rarely, and in the end he is taken away in a straitjacket, as for shurik, who appears there under the name of an engineer timofeev and transporting Ivan Vasilyevich and the house manager bunshu back and forth to the middle ages and back, he is clearly losing the site to the surrounding baggage and even his wife, the beautiful girl lida, leaves him for yakin. Therefore, the truly bright people there are zhullik miloslavsky, zhullik shpag, and the petty rogue, director yakin, this is a rather frank and correct reflection of the surrounding reality, it just so happened that even in sportto 82, the film that was the last. In the performance and kakshenov was completely outplayed bright, beautiful, positive hero, played by alges arlausskos, not because arlausskos is a worse artist, because in life the swindlers won, this , in fact, was the end of soviet aesthetics and soviet life, it came to the point that at the same time in almost one year with my brother, a wonderful picture by maxim pezhimsky came out, mama negoryi, where the myth of such a bandit cross was actually worked out, and corrupt Police Officers and bandits from different sides were looking for a vulnerable, some kind of mythical creature according to nicknamed sailor, every time they practically grabbed him by the tailbone, some grace found them, they. Looked for the real, real christ, our jesus iosifovich, because they felt that he was walking the right road, and even if leaves on a long journey, he always remembers that his homeland is waiting, there is no place in the whole world, we are dearer than our native side, the song was sung just at the credits, in fact, but somehow only representatives could preserve their property and selfrespect. Bandit groups, many decent directors rose to the occasion on this, and around the time of the brother , a year after its release, there was a default in the country, and the ruble, of course , fell, television simply did not have the money to purchase foreign series, at that very moment it began the formation of the national serial business, producer kopitsa released in ninetynine. The first season of the streets of broken lamps and the first season of the National Security agent, unfortunately, then the series deteriorated, because that some kind of Law Enforcement pathos had already become applicable to him, and somewhere in the fifth or sixth season it became completely impossible to watch all this, first the main directors fell away from the series, then kopic himself died in 2004, if im not… memory, then in the end, all the main characters began to drop out one by one, in general , by the sixth season, from the streets of broken lamps, there was practically nothing left. That was in the first and it is quite difficult for todays viewers to explain what a sensation the picture made at the time of its release in ninetynine year. This is still the podcast burn with fire and i, its host Denis Gorelov with a story about the most important events of National Film production and National Film distribution over the past 30 years, about the main trends in the development of National Cinema and how it will develop in the very near future. But the country was changing and some circumstances no longer corresponded to balabanovs main message resistance to the surrounding world, of course, it is still the inertia of the audiences perception and understanding of the surrounding world by filmmakers. Great, balabanov remained in charge until his death. Over there, go, maybe ill take it, my star is with me, in 2013, in my opinion, but at that moment it was already quite obvious that a new time had come, time abundance, suddenly falling on the head, time when around, predictable stability and td. And here a new director was already needed, he actually appeared in 2013, the first film of director andrei pershin, gorko, was released, pershins name is absolutely unknown to anyone in the country, because everything he shot his films under the rollicking pseudonym zhora kryzhovnikov. These were egorka, egorka 2, and let 2, and the best day and series. Call dicaprio. And in times of stability, people most often begin to take care of their personal lives. Basically, the paintings were focused specifically on personal internal relationships in families. And it is not at all surprising that in almost all of the listed films , kryzhovnikovs then wife, yulia alexandrova, his then muse, played. There were heroes of the pictures. In general quite strange, one cannot say that in gooseberry films, there is at least one positive character, on the other hand, you cant call them all at least unconditionally negative, these are people who can hit you in the head with a bottle, on the other hand, pull you out from under the fire and become your best friend , in general, those around our compatriots, and a very accurate look , perhaps with the most sympathy, he treated precisely the wife of her characters, but when his wife in the film, on the best day, she took a crowbar and chopped up the police car, it became clear that this, of course, was a real storm in the desert, you also need to stay at a safe distance from it, as in general with all of us, and, to be honest, all the mistakes about what is happening in the pictures are miraculously corrected , and sometimes even in a truly magical way, remember how in the film the irony of fate at one time everything developed for a moscow doctor and a st. Petersburg teacher, not quite in the right direction, when they already began to dance among themselves, things openly led to sex and there was it is absolutely clear that if something happens between them, then this couple will not have any continuation, the whole thing was saved by the drunken ipolit, who kicked the door for a long time , shouting that he had been warmed up and robbed, and in the same way, in all kruzhovnikovs paintings , something unexpectedly beautiful, magical always happens, which corrects all the misunderstandings, er, returns all the heroes to the correct orbit. Lets kiss now. Lets jump, no, well, this will be our ceremony, come on, gorkov, golya, look at him, uh, quarantine, come on, jump, come on were done again spoiled by idiots, tore off our heads, plaguescavenging spring, we dont need you, ill say crazy, plaguescratching spring, plaguescratching, plague scratching, spring has come, has torn off the roof of you and me , crippling. Kryzhovnikov is a deeply uplifting author, and i think that is why such formal recognition by the film Critical Community did not happen to him. Our intelligentsia loves to whine more than anything in the world, and if you look at the list of the 50 most important films of the last twentyfive years, chosen by critics, you will understand that after each of these films you want to hang yourself, there is not a single film of gooseberry among. There are none, another thing is that i already had the opportunity to make sure that this person, the most accurate, exponent of stable times, quite a lot of people agree with me, in yum sakhalin, some viewers actually told me , that gooseberry and balabanov are incomparable, but the times of abundance of money that fell on ones head are also incomparable with the dashing nineties, in fact, the heroes of gooseberry are dunces, who, as a result of suddenly appearing prosperity, are tempted to become euroboobies, but hold on of their traditionalist view remain themselves, and now there is a new stage, the stage of unconditional and frank confrontation and the people who. Will best express this period are still in the shadows, i cant say who it will be, at the moment a whole group has emerged , such new wild directors, this is kiril sokolov, who shot wonderful films, dad, tear him off and get out, about a real bloody civil war within families, which. Still ends well, and this is pyotr dikarev with painting by guyler, with Zakhar Prilepin in the title role, this is Roman Zhigalov with the film forest, and this is Roman Mikhailov with the painting a tale for old people, nikolai rybnikovs film chicago seems to be moving in the same direction, this is such a wild russia, solving its problems , sometimes even at the cost of prison and scrip, but still not deviating from the set course, there is no doubt about it that a new director will appear, uh, perhaps not tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, sometimes inertia requires, somewhere around three in expectations 4 years old, but he there will definitely be, in due time valery todorovsky, when he had just turned 30, was asked why there were no new torkovskys in the country, he said no, that means theres no need. as soon as there is a request for a new torkovsky, the new torkovsky will immediately appear in orbit. In the same way, in the country there is a demand for a new spokesman for confrontational times, there is an effective demand in cinema, cinema, which means there will definitely be this new director. Lets talk in five, it was a podcast burn with fire and i, its host, Denis Gorelov, with a story about the main current kinetographic trends. Hello, the program is about the most notable events of this day our pilots and air force forces worked four times in one day against enemy aircraft. Active defense on the ground, in footage from the lugansk front. The window of impossibility, the only corridor in the gas opened. Only for crumbs of humanitarian aid, for hundreds of thousands of refugees there is no way out, exaggerated greatness, how to sell americans the growing debt burden and new spending on ukraine plus a year before the elections and no nails, as well as buttons, knitting needles and sewing needles, lithuania proposes to ban supplies to russia in the twelfth package of sanctions. Charge for the game anapa volleyball arena was opened in the year of the anniversary of this sport in our country. Why is this more than just a housewarming party . Victory technology, robot battle, International Car competitions. And their creators, what will the champions receive and how to join their ranks . Cluster munitions targeting civilians, four people were injured as a result of shelling of commercial warehouses in donetsk by ukrainian militants. The blows hit a service station and they burned down there. Several cars, an ambulance, a fire truck was damaged, experts found fragments of cluster shells. The Electronic Components are practically not destroyed; everything will be transferred to the next place. As for the progress of the special operation, new attacks by our forces on the rear of ukrainian formations in the dnepropetrovsk and nikolaev regions. Fire in krivoy rog. The goals will be announced later. Now the ministry of defense has details from the front line. In donetsk. Direction by units of the Southern Group of troops in cooperation with aviation and artillery defeated enemy personnel and equipment, the enemy lost up to 260 military personnel, four vehicles, an American Made 155mm m777 howitzer, and an rszzo grad combat vehicle. Depots of ammunition and fuel and lubricants were destroyed at the dolgintsevo airfield in the krivoy rog region, dnepropetrovsk region. Aviation of the Russian Aerospace forces in the air. A ukrainian su24 plane was destroyed in the odessa area, a su24 plane, two mik29 planes and a mi8 helicopter were shot down by air defense systems. Forces of ukraine. 10 Unmanned Aerial Vehicles were destroyed in the areas of belogorovka, berestovo, sporny, and the donetsk peoples republic. And under kremenna in the lugansk republic, the main task now is the destruction of sabotage groups. It is much easier for them to move secretly in the forest; they try to pass themselves off as ours, such actions are discovered. Another point is that special marksmen are being recruited in the enemys country; biathlete snipers act as polish mercenaries. Gusein guseinov, our soldiers told about this. So far one fighter releases the entire machinegun belt towards the enemy, another one immediately loads the next one, the arrows at my points alternately fire. Footage of a real battle of one of the assault squads. For akhmat. Ukrainian militants tried to encircle our fighters, but in the end they retreated with heavy losses. This is the northern section of the front line, the vicinity of the city of kremennaya and the serebryansky forest. The fighters of this formation feel confident here and are ready to meet the enemy at any moment. We are well prepared, we are waiting, we are even ready to attack, but there was no command, we wait. Of course, we are making new positions, we understand where they can come from, thats why. Well, naturally, we are also taking a proactive step. From here the line of combat contact is only a few kilometers away. This is one of the defensive lines of the akhmat division. And almost every day sabotage and reconnaissance groups of the Ukrainian Armed forces try to get here. There was literally one recently, a couple of days ago, with two or three people. It happens that they sneak in unnoticed. Every day we go around and restore the barrier. Saboteurs work in groups, in of which there are from three to ten people, all well trained and armed, the military says. There are not just top groups there, namely the Assault Group of azov, or, like gru, the main Ukrainian Intelligence Service or officers , that is, they are seriously prepared, they speak russian without an accent, clearly, there were such moments that they even tried to infiltrate, well, quickly them figured out, destroyed, liquidated, thats how. One of these attacks, according to intelligence data, a group of saboteurs is trying to get into the city through the forest, having discovered a drg, akhmats fighters meet with fire, and then they start to chase her, look, theres one, there he is, obviously, it looks like were him
