The story of the artist’s life deserves a separate film.
Alexander Pankratov-Cherny is known today as a talented director and actor. He made many films and has long won the hearts of fans. And all this happened thanks to his chance meeting with the actress Izolda Izvitskaya.
As it turned out, Pankratov-Cherny spent his childhood in a remote village in Altai. One of the main entertainments for him was the cinema, which he could see thanks to the film mover, which occasionally came to them in the village. And then one day he managed to watch the drama “Forty-First”, in which Izvitskaya just played the main role, and after that the famous actress knocked on his door.
The fact is that at that very time she traveled with a film crew around the country and presented her film. And near the village of Alexandra, their bus got stuck in a snowdrift, so she went to look for help. Already in the morning, the artist decided to leave her autographed picture to the young savior in gratitude, but did not know what to write. The future director admitted that he dreams of working in the cinema.
“Sanya, your dream will come true. I believe. Isolda Izvitskaya, – signed the artist.
As a result, the prophecy of the celebrity really came true. In the late 60s, the young man graduated from the Gorky Theater School and began his career.
