Evgeny Evstigneev biography

St. Petersburg 2nd Krasnoarmeyskaya St. So they talked about Evgenia Evstigneev. The films where he starred can rightfully be called the standard of the genre. The great actor was gone in the year, but his legacy is still alive. Childhood Evgeny Evstigneev was born in October of the year. The small homeland of the artist is Nizhny Novgorod. Parents were workers: father, Alexander Mikhailovich Evstigneev, - Metallurg at the Krasnaya Etna plant, mother, Maria Ivanovna, worked there as a milling mill.

For his father, this was the second marriage, for the mother the third.

Yevgeny Evstigneev’s parents Eugene was a late child: when he was born, his father was already died when his wife was not even seven years old. Mother had to take additional shifts at the factory. Soon, Maria Ivanovna got married again, and it became easier to live. Evgeny Evstigneev in childhood with his mother, an artistic gift from the future famous actor began to manifest from an early age.

In the pioneer camp, the boy became interested in the game on the mountain and began to study the tool. After the winds, the turn of strings came: Zhenya was carried away by a guitar. But the greatest successes in the game of drums. Evgeny Evstigneev in his youth, the boy’s mother, as close families recalled, was a very intelligent and erudite woman. It was she who taught her son to books.

Despite the wellness, Eugene is not metered at universities. He graduated from the seven -year -old and left school - he got a job as an electrician, and a year later he entered the technical school. But it was not possible to finish the college. The stepfather died, it was necessary to help the mother. In the year, Eugene came to her at the factory, where he was designed as a locksmith.

After work, the young man went to the hospital and gave concerts to the wounded: a fascination with music was useful. The first steps in the profession when the war ended, on the Red Etne created a jazz ensemble, where Eugene also performed. Jazz has become a step towards future success on stage. Although there could not be a turn in fate - there was a good factory salary on the weight of Libra.

Evgeny adored jazz once a rector of the Gorky Theater School came to the concert of Dzhazmenov. After the performance, he suggested Evstigneev to come to the entrance exams. The rector invited him to go to the performance of students and decide. Eugene was so impressed by what was happening on the stage that without unnecessary questions he began to prepare for exams. Now the school is named after Evstigneev, and the Nizhny Novgorod Drama Theater erected a monument in his honor.

There, in yesterday, a student saw a comedic gift and gave appropriate roles. There was no downtime: over three seasons, Eugene played 23 roles. Nevertheless, the actor felt that he did not have enough knowledge that it was necessary to continue education and not somewhere, but in Moscow. And then the case helped. He invited Evstigneev to enter the third year immediately. So a simple guy from the province was in the capital's acting environment.

As the classmate and future wife Galina Volchek recalled, the new one stood out abruptly among Moscow youth. At that time, Evstigneev was 28 years old, he had already begun to bald. With good clothes, I couldn’t boast of one: one lilac costume for all occasions. But all this took the last plan when it became clear how talented it is. A career in the theater in the year, students organized a “studio of young actors”, which subsequently grew into a “contemporary”.

In this theater, Evstigneev became a star. The audience stormed the cashier to get on him. For example, the play "Naked King" was popular. As Oleg Tabakov said, after the role of King Evstigneev became the “acting sun” of the theater. The theater made it possible to show itself in different roles, including dramatic ones. Apart is a “seagull”, where Evstigneev played a friend Arkadina, Dr.

Dorn. One of the important dramatic roles is satin in the play "At the bottom." The premiere took place in the year and was highly appreciated by critics. One of them wrote about Evstigneev: "He does not realize the limits of his acting talent." The next scene that he conquered was the Moscow Art Theater. Efremov agreed to lead the theater and called his colleagues.

Almost everyone refused, including Galina Volchek, who subsequently stood at the head of “Contemporary”. Only the most devoted friends followed their leader: Alexander Kalyagin and Mikhail Kozakov responded with Evstigneev to the call. Until the year, when the actor left the theater, he took part in the performances “Three Sisters”, “Ivanov”, “Echelon” and many others.

The audience was noted and the production of the Old New Year. The actors employed in it went to the film with the same name. Evstigneev, as his colleagues recall, played with brilliance the forever intoxicated old man Ivan Adamych. As Kalyagin recalled, here, as in other works, Evgeny Alexandrovich managed to reveal the character from different sides: "He has a deep philosophy behind his external comedy." A fragment of the play “Old New Year” for his life Evstigneev suffered several heart attacks.

The moment came when he decided to ask Khudruk and his friend to alleviate the repertoire - it became difficult to withstand big roles and memorize volumetric text. Efremov flared up and barked in his hearts: "Then retire."Without work, of course, he did not stay, the movie saved. And the last role - in the theater of Sergei Yursky - was Glov in the "players".

Evstigneev in the role of Glova in the "players" cinema for the first time on the screens of cinemas of the actor was seen in the year in the film "Fuel". The first significant work is the satirical comedy of Elena Klimov "Welcome or the entrance is prohibited." The premiere of the film took place in October. Evstigneev with his inherent irony showed Pynin in all its glory.

Eugene, in the role of Pynin, the actor embodied the comedic talent in paintings that are masterpieces of Soviet cinematography. A good tandem has developed with Eldar Ryazanov. The director admired Evstigneev’s talent: “No matter what he play, he was convincing and natural everywhere.” An excerpt from the film “Beware of the car” was first the film “Beware of the car” year of release - in the picture, Evgeny Alexandrovich appeared in the image of the director of an amateur theater.

Then followed the Golden Calf, which the premiere of which took place in the year. Here the actor reincarnated into a millionaire Koreiko. Evstigneev in the film "Golden Calf" in the year the light saw the film "Old Rightholders". The actor in the "seventeen moments of spring" appears completely different. Here he is Professor Plyishner. A small role, but played so that it is already impossible to imagine someone else in it.

For this work, the actor was awarded the Order of the Red Banner of Labor. In the role of Professor Plyishner, the ally of the acting workshop, Alexander Kalyagin, recalled the miracles of Evstigneev’s transformation, about how he could get used to the role. One of these reincarnations is Professor Preobrazhensky in the “dog’s heart” Kalyagin said that he did not understand how this role was played: “He is a simple man, from the people, and the professor is a super -illigene person!

As a friend and colleague Oleg Basilashvili noted, the actor suddenly changed everything - a gait, gestures, and facial expressions. A fragment of the film “Dog heart” in some ways became the role of the fugitive lentille-income in the film “Winter Evening in Gagrakh” by the protagonist in the final there is a heart attack, the same fate soon waited for Evstigneev.

They showed the series after the death of the brightest actor - in the year. What attracted them in this outwardly not too attractive person? Actress Irina Alferova recalled that it was impossible for them not to get carried away. Evstigneev had three wives. The first wedding, with Galina Volchek, took place in the year. Galina was a representative of golden youth. In the apartment of the daughter of a professor at the Institute of Cinematography, students gathered after studying.

Evgeny Evstigneev and Galina Volchek, classmates could not hide bewilderment when Volchek was carried away by Evstigneev, but the girl did not pay attention to the difference in age and social status. She saw the main thing in it: he brilliantly played all kinds of musical instruments, at drums - just virtuoso, and in general incredible fluids emanated from him.

Plus undoubted male charm and - most importantly - genius, talent magic. I fell in love with this.
