The actor recalled with horror what he experienced on the set.
There are more than 60 projects in Viktor Perevalov’s piggy bank, but a special place among them is occupied by the painting “Maria the craftswoman”. It is believed that it was she who pioneered the actor in the world of great cinema.
In the tape, the artist embodied Ivanushka, the son of the main character, from whom the tape takes its name. At that time, Perevalov was 10 years old and had difficulties on the set. Before starting work, the young actor was shaved bald under a wig, after which he was sent home and told to return only after three days.
During this time, the artist burned himself in the scorching sun, which made it painful for him to wear a hair band, a backpack on his shoulders and a raw linen shirt. Later, Perevalov admitted that he wanted to cry every now and then, so he couldn’t wait for the scenes where his hero him sobbed. So the actor, finally, could take his soul away.
The latest in a celebrity’s career were the unfinished project “Life of People” and the film “Guarded by Fate”, released after Perevalov’s death. The actor died in the summer of 2010 at the age of 62.
