***
– The role of Chipka’s best friend in “Why are you complaining, when cup is full?” is interesting because of my hero’s attitude towards his friend, because the friends who surround us in adult life do not always turn out to be real, as in childhood. When we started growing up together, everything was fine, and when we grew up, everyone had their own life, everyone already positioned themselves in society in a certain way.
– Who would I not play? I played both a pastor and a devil… That’s probably why I don’t have one. Acting is one thing, but I would never want to be the person I play on stage in life. I would like the performance to remain a performance, and life to remain life. This is also advice to those who put on a mask and try to pretend to be someone else in life. But no matter how much you hide, you can still see a person.
– Many people now grab the external component of the acting game of professional actors, gurus, forgetting about the internal character building, the embodiment of the character, the search process. For example, you look at a person in the latest Mercedes model, and its owner at that moment may not even think about what car he drives, because, perhaps, he deceived a bunch of people or owes someone a lot of money, has problems. It is always easier to observe from the sidelines, and a person could go through fire and water to reach the top, put his whole life on it, sacrificed his family for the sake of a career.
– You choose whether you will go up or down today. Although sometimes, having fallen into a hole, you can climb higher. Having fallen, you get up and go further. Sometimes this is how you learn to walk.
