Great invention - television! And no less great - television serial films. Remember how many of us rushed to the TV, as soon as the title song of our favorite series came from the screen. Probably, one of the most popular serial films of our time can be called "Soldiers" (the series, the actors and the roles of which are still interesting to the viewer).
About making the film
The creators of the series sought to recreate a real army atmosphere on the set, which, however, they succeeded. True, the creators themselves say that their army looks very humane and fabulous compared to the real one. After all, you can’t hear enough horrors about the service!
The series "Soldiers" was released in 2004. Then the first season came out. The idea of creating a series arose spontaneously. Script writers Leonid Kuprido, Sergey Olekhnik and others undertook to spin the plot and come up with funny situations. And the director's work was taken under his command by Sergei Arlanov. As the director himself recalls, the film crew wanted to createnot a documentary about the difficulties of the army, but on the contrary, kind and funny, which would both ridicule the shortcomings and emphasize the merits. This is how the beloved TV series “Soldiers” appeared.
The plot is humor and truth
The scenario of the first season, as well as all subsequent ones, was based on numerous soldier anecdotes, jokes, army memories of the creators of the series and comical life situations. There are love lines in this film, and transitions to true friendship, patriotic duty. All this is quite successfully intertwined with funny sketches of a soldier's life. Who helped the director to turn such an idea into reality? So, the series "Soldiers" - actors and roles!
Bosom friends
From the very beginning of the series, viewers get acquainted with two recruits - Medvedev and Sokolov. Both of them ended up in the army due to different circumstances. The hard worker Sokolov, who wanted to enter the engineering faculty, ends up in the army, in the engineering troops, and Medvedev is punished by the “army” from his own father, who decides to exile his son to the service for expulsion from the university, numerous binges and noisy parties in drunken companies. Despite such a difference in goals and motives, the guys become close friends. Throughout the season, the two of them get into various stupid situations from which they are looking for a way out.
Private Medvedev was played by the then-famous actor Alexander Lymarev. The public knows him from many films. But it was the series that brought him real popularity."Soldiers". The actor himself says that he was very pleased to play in the film.
The role of a simple village guy Sokolov went to aspiring actor Ivan Mokhovikov, for whom "Soldiers" became a real ticket to his acting career. Prior to that, he was only known for a few small roles.
From the ship to the ball
What else is the series "Soldiers" famous for? Actors and the roles they play in the series are sometimes simply incompatible! For example, many of the leading actors have never been in the army, while the scriptwriters and director managed to taste all the delights of a soldier's life. Among those who did not sniff army gunpowder was the venerable actor Boris Shcherbakov, who played Major General Borodin in the eleventh season of the series.
According to Boris Shcherbakov himself, mastering the basics of military training was not an easy task, but one of the most enjoyable in his life.
Comedians from birth
A lot of comical moments and the most ridiculous situations were brought to the series by the presence of such actors as Roman Madyanov and Alexei Maklakov. Who does not remember the famous ensign Shmatko, who blew up the entire series with his signature phrases alone, and the audience rolled with laughter, sitting in front of the TV screens? Alexei Maklakov himself says that he "simply bathed in the role of a charming and funny ensign", he came up with many jokes right in the middle of the set.
Roman Madyanov did an excellent job with the role of Colonel Kolobkov, who is very comical even in his severity andseverity.
The viewers also remember a good friend of Sokolov and Medvedev - the local chef Vakutagin, in whom Amadou Mamadakov masterfully reincarnated - a young actor with a real Yakut appearance and excellent acting skills.
Among this stellar team, one cannot fail to mention Vyacheslav Grishechkin and his brilliantly played political officer Starokon, an eternal womanizer and gossip. And what about the young lieutenant Smalkov, performed by the same young and promising Ignat Akrachkov! Let us also remember Anatoly Koshcheev, the narrow-minded and very hilarious Senior Ensign Danilyuk. This is what "Soldiers" is famous for, the actors and roles of which remain in the memory of many fans.
Definitely, even a few years later, the audience will remember the images created on the screen by novice actors Yuri Safarov, Mikhail Tarabukin, Anton Eldarov, Igor Gasparyan. These young guys have shown the venerable professionals that they can shine on the screen!
This is not the entire cast, which the series "Soldiers" can boast of. The actors, whose photos now do not leave the pages of fashion magazines, also once got their first small role in the TV series "Soldiers".
Ladies on set
The actresses of the series "Soldiers" deserve no less attention. There are very few of them in the picture, but the female cast is selected very professionally.
So, for example, the audience saw the lively KVN-girl Svetlana Permyakova in the role of an interesting barmaid, who turned from a minor characterpractically in the main. In the second season, the writers decided to make the heroine Permyakova happy with mutual love with Lieutenant Smalkov (I. Akrachkov). Svetlana, in many interviews, said what “Soldiers” meant to her. The actors and their roles are truly inimitable!
In the first season, the performer of the role of Varya, Sokolov's girlfriend, brilliantly lit up. This role went to a young and "green" actress Sofya Anufrieva.
That's what the series "Soldiers" was for everyone. The actors and the roles they performed will remain in the hearts of moviegoers for a long time. Therefore, we will all sit down at the TV with bated breath when we hear the song “Hello, sky in the clouds!”
