Since February 20, the country is shaking: actor Alexei Serebryakov on the YouTube channel Yuri Dudia said that “strength, impudence and rudeness” are included in the national idea of Russia. Spears are grinding, Facebook sparkles. Serebryakov was promoted to truth -seekers, madmen, outlowerers.
And on February 26, State Duma deputy Ivan Sukharev (LDPR), the author of a number of bright bills, prepared a request to the Minister of Culture Vladimir Medinsky: in order not to use the actors “with anti -Russian views” in films with the state financing of the Russian Federation!
Here, in theory, Vladimir Medinsky could fall into a stupor, combining incompatible.
But I think, in fact, it will react to the request of the vigilant parliamentarian philosophical.
That's what is funny: a sweeping passage about the strength, the impudence and rudeness of Serebryakov Dudu expressed in the sixth minute of their hourly conversation. Further, judging by the reaction, no one looked: everyone rushed to express a personal attitude. From poets to deputies. Two hundred thousand likes on YouTube!
And in vain. In the 35th minute of the same conversation, Yuri Dud (who was generally preparing to talk with a wonderful actor thoughtfully) quoted Serebryakov his interview with 2014. It's about the Minister of Culture of Medinsky, who dared to the actor to indicate what to think about the fatherland.
The Dud immediately asks: with such a glow of civil anger - how are you in the next, 2015 starred in the title role in the series based on Vladimir Medinsky’s novel “Wall”? (Serebryakov played the governor Mikhail Shein, who headed the defense of Smolensk from the Poles in 1609-1611.)
And he gets an answer: what is it? It is one thing - the views of Medinsky. Another is his adventure novel. Which I, however, did not read. I read the script. Yes, and the fee for the "wall" has not yet received. (Which, too, of course, is very in our opinion: so somehow everything ...)
But as you listen to the conversation until the 35th minute, which shook the minds from Kushka to Kusil, including the parliamentary request to the Minister of Culture regarding the excommunication of antipatriotic actors from state financing, it becomes very ridiculous. The patriot of Medinsky, when choosing the governor Shein for the film “Wall”, the thunder passages of Serebryakov (and previously publicly expressed) did not interfere: the actor is good ... Serebryakov’s political views of the “wall” during the choice of work prevented no more: the film is adventure.

By the way, ten minutes before the “wall” the actor and Yuri Dud discussed a completely different job from the huge filmography of Serebryakov - “Gangster Petersburg”. And the argument sounded similar: “Actually, this is just a movie. This is not surgery. No one will die. "
Yes, they are just the cases of the “Russian conversation” sorting out! Serebryakov: I took the children to Canada - and therefore they are brought up in tolerance, goodwill, respect for other people's dignity. And in English they say well. Dud: So I will say the same about my friends in Moscow. Serebryakov: Of course, this is possible in Russia. Dud: Have you heard about violence in Canada schools? Serebryakov: I have not heard. This is probably in bad schools. We have good. In Moscow, too, probably, some schools are better than others. And in general, of course, in twenty years, something has changed for the better. But twenty years for the country this is a minute. And for one life, this is quite a lot.
How can one relate with such fervor, such vigilant rage, such a jubilant solidarity - to the classic, confused, hot spore of two Russian intellectuals in the kitchen, where the debaters now and then change positions (because our man is complicated, and the main theme of disputes - the long -suffering homeland is not easy)? But according to the genre - this is he, dear. With the reservation that two talented persons are being seen in this kitchen. And with the use of technical means: they looked at YouTube 4.6 million souls. (Like other issues of "Vedud".)
And in the kitchen window, sniffing, the State Duma peeps. In the person of deputy Sukharev. And besides the manner of Alexei Serebryakov, to chop the splash and judge on the scope, she has no other civil anxieties.
I do not know what the national idea of Russia is today. But the national habit to judge on a scale, on a small statistical material, gambling out of eternal myths-so she is clearly alive.
And we pass such a strange time, people, land, enterprises and institutions develop (or degrading) at such different speeds, the country has become such a variegated patchwork ... that there are no conclusions-if it is seriously approaching! - You will not dare to do.
Yes, that the country, even the Moscow province has become today a patchwork blanket. You’ll go to the county city in.: Wow, how everything is running! You’ll go to the county city of D.: Wow, how everything is cleaned!
But this is really better than twenty years ago. When the province lay a single robe.
But the nerves of citizens are clearly inflamed. Either this is a fluid, changeable time, heated by beloved by common sins - despondency and despair - does not allow us to make a firm, personal opinion of anything. Especially about the fate of Russia. Either the nervous exhaustion of the 20th century is still with us.
But there was enough sparks - and everything drowned in the public space. Like brushwood.
