Dozens of TV shows are released annually on television screens. Hundreds of young stars light up brightly in the cinematic sky, but how many of them fall, failing to stay there? Broken fates, unjustified hopes. The pain is replaced by disappointment for some, anger and envy for others who linger there.
Unknown actor
Few people know Alexander Baryshnikov, an actor in Russian cinema. His biography on the Internet is only a few lines. It is known that he was born on May 17, 1974, but where, in which family and who are his parents, the story is silent about this. There is no such information as if someone had erased it intentionally. There is no information about friends and colleagues - nothing. What is it? Someone's evil joke or the simple desire of Alexander himself to hide this side of his life? It is strange for a novice actor who claims to be successful.
Sport: love or hobby
A fair-haired, green-eyed guy of high stature with an impressive weight and rather big size of clothes showed an idle interest in power sports: Greco-Roman wrestling, barbell, bodybuilding, power extreme. One feels youthful maximalism, impudence and a challenge. He achieved significant success, becoming a master of sports in powerlifting. Apparently, this is why Alexander Baryshnikov decided to enter the sports academy of the Moscow Art Theater. By the way, in June 2016, the Academy will celebrate its 85th anniversary as an educational institution that trains specialists in the field of physical education and sports. This educational institution itself received the status in 1994 according to the results of state certification. Over the years the Academy has existed, more than 25 thousand specialists in the field of physical education and sports have graduated from its walls. In addition to his interest in sports, Alexander Baryshnikov showed a real male interest in weapons. Too high interest, which subsequently led to such high-profile events, maybe. In his profiles, Alexander Baryshnikov (actor) indicated that he owns all types of weapons. From pistols to knives of all kinds. And there is no doubt about this, especially when you look at the photo of Alexander Baryshnikov. Another hobby was driving a car. Presumably, having categories A and B, Alexander Baryshnikov met with transport in his youth, starting with a motorcycle. A lot of boys, not yet reaching the required age, dream of driving their older friends on a moped, and upon reaching maturity they try to realize their childhood dream and buy a car.
The embodiment of strength and courage
Who does not dream of acting in films? A rare person will refuse such an opportunity. Alexander's cinematic career dates back to 2010. Alexander Baryshnikov is a beginner actor, so you can not do without a profile and good photos. The only photo shoot that is stored on the World Wide Web presents Baryshnikov to us as a young, strong, pumped-up man of athletic build. It would seem that a handsome man with a spectacular tattoo on the forearm of his right hand is doomed to success, because it is from such girls that they are fans and they become heroes of fashionable youth series. But the reality was not as expected. Photo by Alexander Baryshnikov - the embodiment of strength and courage, but ...
Series and roles: success or failure
Alexander Baryshnikov is an actor in the episode. That is how his filmography began and took a long time. In the rare series “Payback” (2010), “Karpov”, (2012), “Moscow. Three stations” (2012), “Wanted” (2012), “Caution, children!” (2013), “Zaitsev + 1” (2013), “Battle of the Sexes” (2014), “Chao, Federico” (2014), “Horoscope for good luck” (2015) - only small episodic roles. So small that the game is more like extras: man, jockman, pirate, guard. Alexander Baryshnikov is an unsuccessful actor. This can not be pronounced aloud, and so everything is clear. A protracted failure is probably the more appropriate name for his professional acting career.
There is always an alternative
Most likely, a series of setbacks and debunked dreams of an acting career sent Alexander Baryshnikov’s abilities in the wrong direction. In October 2015, information appeared in the press and on television that in Moscow, two persons who were suspected of fraud were detained by police. One of them was Alexander Baryshnikov, an actor in Russian cinema. This fact has discouraged many. According to police, the actor, who had no further success, Alexander Baryshnikov, along with an accomplice, was looking for people who, in a difficult situation, agreed to take a loan from their bank for a certain monetary reward. The fake goal is to buy an inexpensive car. Attackers easily printed fake documents for a car that did not exist, including a rather plausible contract of sale. This package of documents was handed over by a person to the bank. As a rule, in the bank the documents themselves were not checked for authenticity, the loan was issued without problems in the amount of 2.5 million rubles. Profits were immediately transferred to the “seller" and cashed out. After that, everyone received a percentage of the amount. During searches in the apartments and country houses of criminals, real combat pistols with cartridges for them were discovered. However, the case on these issues is ongoing now. That such a negative character turned out to be Alexander Baryshnikov, the biography and filmography of the actor after this episode is unlikely to be replenished with new achievements. However, life flows and everything is forgotten once ...

Alexander Baryshnikov in his acting questionnaire wrote that he had knowledge of the basics of communication psychology, acting techniques, lack of fear of the stage and the audience. It is a pity that all these abilities turned out to be useless to anyone, but were useful to him for another matter, illegal.
But everything could be different
Understanding the ups and downs of the fate of Alexander Baryshnikov, an aspiring actor, but not known for a variety of reasons, I recall many others, whose path was also not covered with roses, but who did not break under the onslaught of difficulties and failures, but found the strength to go their own way and end life with dignity. Among the namesakes were and are: pilot, athlete, engineer-architect, revolutionary and military leaders, statesman and ballet dancer. More than two dozen personalities who entered their names in history and did not smear them with dirt.
Alexander Baryshnikov, the biography of this person is very sad ... This story will have its final, but it is still unknown. Glory found its hero, but did he need it like that? The question remains unanswered, or maybe this story will still have a sequel, but which one? Time will tell…
