The stories of gullible provincial women, deceived and abandoned, but rising from their knees and finding their happiness, have recently just not left the TV screens. In the case of the new t / c "Temptation", the brief content of the film suggests that this series is absolutely no different from everyone else. Is it really?
Olga Subbotina and the shooting of the series
"Temptation" really looks a lot like the duty soap, because Elena Laskareva worked on the script. In addition to The Temptation, Laskareva wrote scripts for such multi-part films as The Institute of Noble Maidens and Doomed to Become a Star. As for the series "Temptation", a brief summary of the film ("Russia-1") shows that this time it was not possible to avoid the cliches.
The total length of the mounted material is 800 minutes. The director of the picture was Olga Subbotina, who is widely known primarily as a theater director. Together with Subbotina, Denis Rodimin (previously a member of the script group of the movie âBoomerâ) worked on the finalization of the script, as well as Yuri Klavdiev.
Subbotina practically abandoned the pavilion shootings and gave preference to full-scale ones: if the hospital is operational, if the steel mill is real. By the way, while filming took place in the maternity hospital in a specially designated room, about 7 children were born behind the next wall. And the role of the main character's newly born baby was played by a real newborn baby.
"Temptation": a brief summary of the film (2014)
Literature experts note that the plot of the film echoes the motives of Leo Tolstoyâs novel âResurrectionâ. What is the 16-episode film The Temptation about?

The summary of the film with Tatyana Arntgolts is quite predictable. Vera is naive and pure, she works as a nurse in a small place Ust-Kamensk and rejects the courtship of men, she waits until she is overtaken by a real and stormy love. And Dima is a bored son of a steel magnate who consumes expensive drinks in liters and changes girls in packs. To bring his son to life, Nashchekin Sr. sends Dmitry to Ust-Kamensk, so to speak, âfor productionâ. The main characters meet, fall in love. Their relatives are categorically against such an alliance. As a result of a misunderstanding, Dima leaves the pregnant Vera and leaves for Moscow, she follows him, goes through many trials. And although the characters in the middle of the series still marry, and they have a son, there are still a lot of trials ahead, everywhere they are followed by the capital's âtemptationâ. The summary of the film looks something like this.
Actors and roles
The main roles in the serial project of Olga Subbotina went to Tatyana Arntgolts, Evgeny Pronin, Agniya Kuznetsova and Artem Osipov. In addition, in the film you can admire Elena Zakharova as extravagant Katie, Anna Kotova as the closest friend of Vera Matveeva and Alla Yuganov - this is the main cast of the Temptation TV / S.
A brief summary of the film with Tatyana Arntgolts also affects the fate of the father, mother and brother of the main character, played by Sergey Batalov, Tamara Akulova and Mitya Labush.
The image of a tough and powerful tycoon on the screens was brought to life by Vitaliy Khaev.
Tatyana Arntgolts and her heroine
"Temptation" (a brief summary of the film) on Channel 1 was advertised a few weeks before the premiere. No one was surprised by the fact that it was Tatyana Arntgolts who will play the main role in the serial film - to some extent, she has long become a serial princess: over the past few years, about 3-4 projects with the participation of the actress have been released on TV screens annually.
In âTemptationâ, Arntgoltz performed her usual role: her heroine is again defenseless and naive, but by the end of the series she is literally transformed before her eyes and finds her long-awaited happiness.
Tatyana admits that when choosing projects she is not guided by logic, pays attention only to the prompts of her intuition. And to the question why the script of âTemptationâ hooked her, the actress answers: with unusual plot twists.
Shooting some episodes turned out to be very stressful for Tatiana Arntgolts - this applies to the series where her heroine rides a horse: the actress in the past fell into a situation where the horse, as they say, suffered, so she barely forced herself to smile in the frame.
Evgeny Pronin as Dmitry
November 24 - the release date for the t / c "Temptation". The summary of the film (Channel One broadcast the picture for a month) is impossible to tell without mentioning the character of Eugene Pronin.
The actor got the main male role - the heir to the steel empire Dmitry Nashchekin. Not wanting to follow in his father's footsteps and do business, Dmitry burns his life in nightclubs, at parties. He also perceives his âlinkâ to his fatherâs enterprise in Ust-Kamensk as another entertainment. However, the difficult conditions in which people work at the steel mill, provincial life, and most importantly, the sincerity and kindness of the girl he met in Ust-Kamensk, for the first time arouse his desire to take part in affairs, become useful and create his own strong family. However, the absurd accident and pressure of his father make Dmitry return to Moscow and again fall into a prolonged alcoholic depression.
The death of the father opens the way to freedom for the young man - finally, he can marry his beloved woman, but at the same time Dmitry inherits his fatherâs business, which is on the verge of bankruptcy. Nashchekin Jr. sets himself the goal of saving the family business, and as the story progresses, the infantile young man turns into a real adult man, able to fend for himself and his loved ones.
Yevgeny Pronin, who played the role of Dmitry Nashchekin, is also known to the viewer for the tv c âMoscow Windowsâ, the film âGarpastumâ and the film âScoutsâ.
Artem Osipov as Gleb
In any plot, there are always characters of counter-action, no exception and the t / c âTemptationâ. The summary of the film (âRussia-1â) could not do without a âscoundrelâ, destroying the plans of the main characters. This is exactly what Gleb Grigorievsky appears to us in the performance of Artem Osipov. Gleb is Dmitryâs childhood friend, close associate of Nashchekin Sr., director of the plant in Ust-Kamensk. But he was tired of ordering to work for his âbenefactorsâ, and at some point he begins his game.
Actor Artem Osipov hails from the city of Saratov. A graduate of the Moscow Art Theater School, he starred in the television film âLiquidationâ, âOne Night of Loveâ, the film âDoctor Tyrsaâ and many other television projects.
Agniya Kuznetsova as Tatyana
According to the plot, there is another key character in the t / c âTemptationâ. The summary of the film, as well as the development of the plot, is impossible without Tatyana Nashchekina performed by Agniya Kuznetsova.
Tatyana - Dmitryâs sister, a full co-owner of the concern. While her father was at the head of the concern, she did not delve into business matters, and in the quarrels of Nashchekin, Sr. and Jr., she preferred to play the role of a conciliator. But after the death of her father, a young woman changes her views and begins to dictate her conditions not only in business, but even intervene in her brotherâs personal life.
The role of Tatyana went to Agniya Kuznetsova, known for the sensational film âEveryone will die, but I will stayâ, as well as for the TV-set âOdessa-Mamaâ and âEscape-2â. In 2015, another film with her participation will be released - âAnd the dawns here are quiet.â
Reviews
After the screens on the forums, heated discussions broke out over the Temptation TV. The summary of the film (2014) and the announcement on Channel One initially made it clear to the viewer: the advertised film is a melodrama designed for housewives, which can be watched to distract from everyday worries. However, among the audience there were also men who, of course, criticized the mass of implausible moments in the film. At the same time, there are many positive reviews from the female audience regarding the series âTemptationâ.
The summary of the film, of course, has its drawbacks. For example, the "hackneyed" and "stamped" plot, but at the same time, the television series copes with the entertainment task wonderfully, therefore, it found its audience.
