Mihail Boyarskiy

There is no person in the post-Soviet space more suitable for the definition of a “living legend” than Mikhail Sergeevich Boyarsky. Even those who have not seen films with the actor's participation can easily remember the timbre of Boyarsky's voice singing “It's time to be happy in our lifetime ...” or “Green-eyed taxi”, and many of the actor's film phrases became winged.

Mikhail Boyarsky is a native Leningrader. He was born into the family of Ekaterina Melentieva, actress of the Comedy Theater, and Sergei Boyarsky, actor of the V.F.Komissarzhevskaya Theater.

The Boyarsky family is famous for its rich history and roots. Mikhail Sergeevich's grandfather, Alexander Ivanovich Boyarsky, was an archpriest and rector of the Church of the Savior on Sennaya, and since 1926 - rector of St. Isaac's Cathedral. Grandmother Ekaterina Nikolaevna Boyanovskaya is a hereditary noblewoman, a graduate of the Smolny Institute for Noble Maidens. Mikhail Boyarsky is Russian by nationality.

The Boyarsky family lived in a communal apartment on Goncharnaya Street. Mikhail Sergeevich recalled in an interview that they had to squeeze in a 6-meter room with a stove, five of them.

The rich library had to be sold out to buy food and clothing. The actor does not like to talk about childhood, but willingly and with great tenderness recalls grandmother Ekaterina Nikolaevna, the “heart” of the Boyarsky family. The woman adored numerous grandchildren, raising children in the traditions of the Russian Orthodox intelligentsia and Christian culture.

As a child, Mikhail Boyarsky felt like the center of a small universe: his parents and brother doted on Misha, took him to museums and theaters, read books and played games. Despite this, the boy grew up an adventurer, got involved in street fights and found adventure.

When the son was 7 years old, his parents noticed his interest in music and sent him to school at the conservatory, where Mikhail Boyarsky learned to play the piano. Ekaterina and Sergey hoped that their son would become a great musician. The Boyarskys drank their acting share and did not want Misha to follow in their footsteps. But first, the eldest and then the youngest son went to theatrical universities.

How the parents reacted to Alexander's decision is unknown, but Mikhail's father and mother said that they would not count on patronage.

No intervention was needed: the young man easily entered LGITMiK, where he gained experience under the guidance of a talented actor and playwright Leonid Makariev. Mikhail readily studied and was remembered by teachers for his inquiring mind and thirst for knowledge.

Mikhail Boyarsky graduated from a theater university and got a job at the Lensovet Theater, where he met the future stars of Soviet cinema. The director Igor Vladimirov accepted the yesterday's student into the troupe. Boyarsky's theatrical biography began with the role of a student in the crowd scene of the play "Crime and Punishment". The image of the Troubadour in the musical "Troubadour and His Friends" brought Mikhail his first popularity: the novice actor was noticed and involved in the performances of the director Igor Vladimirov.

In 1975 the psychological drama The Elder Son was released. In the tape Boyarsky played in a brilliant duet with Nikolai Karachentsov and met with Yevgeny Leonov. The picture, which took a place in the gold fund of Soviet cinema, was watched by millions of TV viewers.

Loud popularity came to Boyarsky after the release of the musical "Dog in the Manger", where a stately, characteristic young man was entrusted to play the main character. The professionalism of the film crew and the amazing cast of the musical comedy by Jan Fried made the film a sensation in the world of Soviet cinema. Mikhail Boyarsky played Teodoro, in love with the heroine of Margarita Terekhova. Armen Dzhigarkhanyan and young Elena Proklova appeared in the tape.

At first, Fried approved Boyarsky for the role of the second plan - the Marquis Ricardo, Diana's envious fiancé, and for the role of Teodoro he considered the candidacies of Oleg Dahl and Oleg Yankovsky. But after the tests, Yan Borisovich suggested Boyarsky Teodoro, and Karachentsov - Ricardo.

Mikhail Boyarsky won the status of a star of the first magnitude and sex symbol of the Soviet Union in 1979, when the 3-part musical adventure comedy "D'Artagnan and the Three Musketeers" was released. Initially, Alexander Abdulov was planned for the role of the main character. Georgy Yungvald-Khilkevich saw Boyarsky as Rochefort, then offered him the choice of Athos or Aramis.

The idea to entrust the role of D'Artagnan to Mikhail belongs to the composer Maxim Dunaevsky. At the audition, Boyarsky won the director over with his bright temperament and expression. The tall (1.85 m) and thin guy corresponded to the idea of ​​a poor and recklessly brave Gascon. The image of d'Artagnan became Mikhail Boyarsky's business card for decades, and the songs from the film turned into hits. Subsequently, the actor played a brave Gascon in the continuation of the "Musketeer" tape.

Since 1978, dozens of directors have been queuing up for Boyarsky. Every year the actor starred in 3-5 films. Until 1990, the artist's filmography was replenished with 30 films. The audience enthusiastically watched Svetlana Druzhinina's musical comedy "The Matchmaking of a Hussar" and her first film about midshipmen "Midshipmen, Go!", Where Mikhail Boyarsky played vivid characters.

In the comedy-western Alla Surikova "The Man from the Boulevard des Capucines" the actor was seen in the image of Black Jack, and in the adventure drama of Jungvald-Khilkevich "Prisoner of the If Castle" Boyarsky reincarnated as the insidious Fernand de Monser.

In 1989, 2 favorite pictures of millions came out - "Don Cesar de Bazan" and "The Art of Living in Odessa". In the first film, directed by Jan Fried, Mikhail Boyarsky got the main role, in the second Yungvald-Khilkevich approved the artist as a hypnotist.

In the 90s, Mikhail Boyarsky starred in 10 films. The audience saw their favorite artist in the continuation of the story about the Musketeers, "Tartuffe" by Jan Fried, the melodrama "Cranberries in Sugar", the TV series "Queen Margot" and "Waiting Room". In the 90s, Boyarsky focused on a musical career. In an interview, Mikhail Sergeevich reported that he had a lot of proposals from directors, but there were no roles that would hook him.

But Boyarsky's fans heard songs performed by him, which became hits: "Green-eyed taxi", "Thank you, dear!", "City flowers", "Everything will pass" and "Leaves are burning."

Boyarsky's musical talent increased the army of his fans at times. The singer's concerts were sold out, the performer was asked to sing the hits "Thank you for your son and for your daughter", "Big Bear", "Up!", Songs from the films "D'Artagnan and the Three Musketeers" ("Constance", "Song of the Musketeers") and "Midshipmen, forward!" ("Lanfren-Lanfra").

In the 2000s, the idol rarely pampers viewers with appearances in feature films. Mikhail Boyarsky does not agree to play in low-standard TV series about gangster and cop showdowns, so fans see a star in films claiming the title of "high cinema".

People's Artist gave preference to the director Vladimir Bortko, starring in his TV series "The Idiot", "Taras Bulba" and "Peter the First. Will". In the last tape, Mikhail Boyarsky appeared in the image of Prince Dmitry Kantemir, and his daughter Elizaveta Boyarskaya played Maria Kantemir.

Igor Petrenko, Konstantin Lavronenko, Alexey Shevchenkov, Gela Meskhi and Elena Tsyplakova starred in the tape about the gang that operated in the 50s.

The People's Artist supports the policy of Russian President Vladimir Putin and signed an appeal by Russian cultural figures in support of the president's policy in Ukraine and Crimea, for which the Security Service of Ukraine included the actor on the list of people who are prohibited from entering the country.

In the fall of 2016, Mikhail Boyarsky became a confidant of the United Russia party in the elections to the State Duma.

Luppian admitted that she drew attention to Boyarsky at the institute, but then she did not like the guy, shaved bald. On the stage, Larissa took a closer look at the charming guy and found him handsome. Mikhail Boyarsky turned out to be the soul of the company: they were drawn to the witty and generous Misha as to the sun.

The theater director did not like Boyarsky and Luppian's novel: he condemned the ties between the actors of the troupe and threatened to fire the "violators". But the couple was not afraid of threats and began to live together in a 13-meter room allocated to Larisa by the theater. The freedom-loving Mikhail Boyarsky was in no hurry to marry, but realizing that it was better to find this beautiful and gentle girl, he took Larisa to the registry office.
