Vladimir Basov
This magnificent actor was born in the summer of 1923 in the Kursk region. In 1941, he intended to enter the theater school and had already begun collecting documents, but the war began. When Vladimir was 19 years old, he undoubtedly went to the front, where he managed not only to survive, but also to begin a brilliant career. Everyone expected him to continue his service after the end of hostilities.
Fortunately, the war did not change his plans, and he nevertheless entered VGIK to become a director. Since 1952, Vladimir began his career as a professional. He not only supervised the filming, but also decided to participate in them personally as different bright characters. Shield and Sword became his most famous work as a director. The actor starred in 80 films, performing episodic and main roles. Who ever saw a picture with the participation of V. Basov, remembered him forever. The bass and other actors of the movie "Captain Nemo" were remembered by the audience thanks to the unusual presentation of famous characters from the book, a great game and emotions. In 1987, this talented man could not recover from a second stroke. He was buried at the Kuntsevo cemetery in Moscow.
Alexander Porokhovshchikov
A talented actor was born shortly before the start of World War II, in 1939. His mother was also an actress, his father a practicing surgeon. When the boy was two years old, the head of the family left. Therefore, the stepfather was engaged in the upbringing of the young man.
His dream of a medical career was prevented by the move of the whole family to the capital. There, he began to look for a job as a furniture restorer in a theater and became very passionate about going on stage. After receiving an acting education, he changed various jobs. At first, Alexander often spoke at the substitution of V. Vysotsky, when he was unable to play. Gradually, his roles appeared, but they were mostly villains. This state of affairs of the actor was very frustrating.
At the age of 27, he first starred in the movie "Search" and did not leave this area of activity. At 52, A. Porokhovshchikov directed the film “I do not allow censorship for memory.” Then he began to act in various popular series, which is what was remembered by the mass audience. The actor of the movie “Captain Nemo” later admitted in an interview that hard work on many projects sometimes affected health, but he did not attach any importance to this.
Alexander married a young costume designer Irina, already at a respectable age. But he never left heirs, having died from complications caused by diabetes in 2012. Shortly before his death, a devoted wife hanged herself in the attic of their mansion. So tragically ended the family of Porokhovshchikovs.
Mikhail Kononov
The famous Soviet actor in the movie "Captain Nemo" was born in Moscow on a beautiful spring day in 1940. At 23, he received a professional education, graduating from Pike. But after five years, he decided to leave the stage forever and act in films, where he made his debut while still studying.
He was entrenched in the image of a simple guy. He starred in such films as “A Guest from the Future,” “The Head of Chukotka,” “The Big Break,” “Captain Nemo” (1975 mini-series). But then he stopped accepting invitations from directors, as he believed that the cinema was going through hard times. His last and very piercing role is Spiridon Danilovich in the film "In the First Circle".
Exactly one year after filming, the actor died of a banal lung disease. Before his death, he was in poverty and did not even have the means for medicine, which is why he started his health. Despite the fact that M. Kononov lived in marriage with his wife for about 40 years, the couple’s heirs did not appear.
