I'm very sorry that there is no batal

Memory of Memory of Yuri Growth

I'm really sorry. He was a good person - Alexei Batalov. And the actor is wonderful. With his departure in our cinema, in our culture, dignity and nobility have diminished in our life. He somehow distance himself from his usual life, was on the sidelines, in his side, and in every house they considered him his own.

Alexey Vladimirovich was a positive hero of our cinema, starting with the Rumyantsev case. Its acting range is great, and although Batalov is categorically recognizable in every role, he was believed. But he did not deceive: in Chekhov, is the “lady with a dog”, or in the “three fat people” Olesha, or in dozens of other paintings ...

Batalov did not even have to show his charming and smart face on the screen in order to fascinate the viewer. In the North, he only speaks with us. (The language does not turn to say that he reads the announcer text.) But as he says!

Batalov was politely accessible and politely fenced.

I knew him for more than fifty years. We had common friends and both of us the house of a wonderful Leningrad actress Anna Grigoryevna Lisyanskaya, where Alyosha and I arranged draws. According to the old memory, he even called me a friendly nickname, with me he married the beauty of the guitar, with whom he lived all his life, I went to him to shoot, where he himself, without an understudy, went on the rope as a gymnast of Tibula. It seemed not far. But I do not know anything about Batalov, except that he considered it necessary to show. But what I saw in his heroes is enough to grieve today, that there is no man next to us, who did not overshadowed the image for our life, which we, loving him, drew ourselves.
