The legendary Soviet film “Green Chains” is a kind of cinema masterpiece of the time. The film is based on a rather unusual plot from military life with action-packed inclusions.
Playing their characters in the film "Green Chains", the actors fully joined in the role, which gave their game a special touch.
Sasha Grigoriev played the role of Mishka Alekseev, a kind and open boy. Vladimir Leletko - the bold and proactive Stepka Panfilov. Both teenagers successfully beat their characters.
Green Chains: movie actors and their life in reality
The main cast consists of three people: two boys and a major counterintelligence. Some of them found themselves in the cinema.
Alexander Grigoriev
The acting career of the beloved handsome Sasha Grigoryev never took place. Unfortunately, this actor was not destined to become famous. After the film "Green Chains" Sasha starred in two more famous films:
- "Adolescents in the Universe";
- "Moscow - Cassiopeia".
Nothing more is known about him. Even at the moment, some fans of the film are asking questions about the fate of Sasha. But he decided not to devote himself to cinema, and therefore there is no information about him. According to some reports, he works as a taxi driver.
Vladimir Leletko
Vladimir, on the contrary, has developed a career as an actor in theater and cinema. At the moment, he starred in 42 films (films and series), also in his practice there are some works on voice acting films. But it’s “Green Chains” - the film from which the acting path of Vladimir Lelyotko began.
Oleg Belov
The filmography of this actor has 91 pictures. Oleg began acting in films in 1961, the last film with his cameo role was released in 2005. Even old age does not stop a real actor!
Plot of the film
The film takes place in 1941 in Leningrad. Two seemingly ordinary boys - Mishka and Stepka - return home after being in a pioneer camp.
On the way home, they meet a man and, out of kindness of heart, help him carry his heavy baggage - a large and heavy suitcase in which, as the stranger stated, there are museum minerals.
But in view of the bombing that suddenly began, the guys lose sight of a random companion, as a result, the guys remain with their suitcase.
Having reached their native Leningrad, Mishka and Styopa decide to open a valuable luggage. And what was their surprise when instead of minerals they find a signal pistol with light rockets. ...
The guys for the sake of a joke decide to shoot a rocket launcher and thereby fall under the suspicion of counterintelligence employees. As it turned out later, similar missiles were used by fascist scouts to aim enemy bombers at the desired target. To give a conditional signal, the fascist agent needed to launch exactly five of these green missiles, and then the enemy quickly attacked and destroyed everything within the radius of the received signal by bombing.
After talking with intelligence representatives, the guys, contrary to adult bans, decide to find their recent travel companion on their own.
At the same time, Major Burakov receives a similar task, and the guys agree to help him get on the trail of such dangerous saboteurs.
From this moment, the boys fall into situations unusual for this age. Dangerous persecutions repeatedly force children to walk along the blade of a knife. At the same time, the plot of the film includes the death of the mother of one of the heroes. She falls under the bombing, being in the territory of the bakery, which came under fascist shelling after the launch of rockets called "green chains" (the actors at this moment beat the episodes very vitally).
As a result, the children’s efforts are not in vain, and they attack the trail of the fascist agent, thereby making a feasible contribution to the nationwide struggle for the defense of the Motherland.
