"Golden Eagle" and his game

On January 29, awards were awarded the National Academy of Cinematographic Sciences and Arts of Russia

"Orla" for the best film received the director "Legends No. 17" Nikolai Lebedev

“Spectators are a complete stadium,” as the director of the amateur theater in “Watch out of the car” used to say. The first Pavilion of Mosfilm at the XII ceremony of presenting film awards “Golden Eagle” would please the character of Yevgeny Evstigneev, a former sports coach, who was swinging at Willyam of our Shakespeare. And it was no coincidence that the stadium was remembered, the ceremony was made "towards the Olympics." On the stage there is a rostrum, the presenter is a sports commentator. Dmitry Guberniev, by the way, coped well. The head of the Union of Cinematographers of Russia Nikita Mikhalkov, nominated as a producer for Legend No. 17, was delighted. Finally, everything went without a hitch. Songs sounded sports, among the guides - a hockey player, skater, boxer.

The Russian hero, Alexander Povetkin, who was beaten by Vladimir Klitschko last year, lit: the prize for the best role was called to receive Elena Ledova - how to him, the poor man, to know the best film artist Lyadova today. But the “ice” came by the way, after all, the Winter Olympics ahead.

The best artist rightly chose Konstantin Khabensky. Director of Alexander Veledinsky, in the picture of which the “geographer drank” Khabensky and Lyadova brilliantly played the main roles, called the best. It seems that there was only the “geographer” to recognize the film - but no. The hero of the timelessness cannot present the successes of our cinema to be shot. Therefore, the main "Eagle" for the best film was given "Legend No. 17". Nikolai Lebedev made a highly professional, well -shot, beautifully shot, well -played, cash desk successful film, why not be happy.

However, the “ears” of this decision are too visible. Ahead of the Olympiad, it is necessary to warm patriotism, support champions, and not marginals like a geography teacher, conscientious and beautiful, but drinking and unhappy. “We want all our sonorous records to all records” - such an relevant song today.

At the same time, the Golden Eagle did not notice at all and did not include many talented pictures in any nominations. “Major” by Yuri Bykova, “Heavenly wives of meadow Marie” by Alexei Fedorchenko, “shame” by Yusup Pereykov, “Intimate places” by Natalia Merkulova and Alexei Chupov, who were loved by international film festivals, did not fall into the field of view of a highly soaring eagle.

The tradition is long, but extremely doubtful: the channel - the translator of the ceremony and all the main prizes are given

It is interesting that the champion of the Russian rental "Stalingrad", which was carefully moving to Oscar, almost the same people who vote on Orel, were awarded prizes only for the work of artists and operator. In the nomination "Best Director" Fedor Bondarchuk was not even considered. And the fact that the main prize to Stalingrad could not be seen, the director and producers realized immediately and ignored the ceremony.

Of course, they awarded all the most worthy, no doubt. Only one strangeness: all are marked for the glory of the Russia "Russia" television channel. The tradition is long, but extremely doubtful. The channel is the translator of the ceremony and all the main prizes go. That is, seeing in the television program that the “eagle” will show “Russia 1”, you can not suffer from intrigue, who will win, the prize alignment is easily guessed. For the visibility of the pluralism of the “eagle”, they handed the series of the First Channel “Mosgaz”, to the rest of the awarded films and series, as already understood, is directly related to Russia 1.

The first gave a symmetrical answer. In his news releases, he only reported the success of his popular mini-series. The fact that in the nomination “Best series”, Sergei Ursulyak defeated “Life and Fate”, about the ceremony itself and its other main laureates - not a word.

As the head of the Caro-Prime Minister’s rental film company Alexei Ryazantsev, who received the prize in the nomination “The Best Foreign Film in the Russian Randing” for “Gravity”, Alfonso Koarona, noted: “Equally,“ Eagle ”flew past us, and now, as a result of a tough intrigue, we received it.” The guess is simple: it was this company that rolled all three nominated films ...
