There is a well-known opinion of psychologists that almost all talented people are very vulnerable. Their mental organization is so fragile that the slightest misunderstanding, let alone criticism or non-recognition of the weight of actions and aspirations, can lead to dangerous consequences, up to tragedy. It is enough to recall such celebrities as:
- famous American actor Robin Williams;
- the founder and lead singer of the popular group revered by millions - Kurt Cobain;
- Argentinean actor Osvaldo Guidi;
- Nobel Prize Laureate Ernest Hemingway ;
- the writer of "white" poems Vladimir Mayakovsky;
- popular Russian favorite poet Sergei Yesenin.
This list can be continued for a very long time, but all that unites, without a doubt, these talented and gifted people is an attempt to get away from harsh reality in any way, even by rejecting the most precious thing that can be in the world - life. Today we will focus on the unrecognized Argentinean actor Osvaldo Guidi and tell his story, which, unfortunately, has a sad ending, like the rest of the listed geniuses.
On the way to his chimera
Guidi was born March 10, 1964 in the community of Maximo Paz in the Argentine city of Santa Fe. There he spent his entire childhood, keeping in his heart the dream of becoming a famous actor. By the way, his full name is Oswaldo Oreste Guidi, but he was reduced at the request of the directors. After school, the young man went to meet his dreams in Buenos Aires. The next 20 years, he was only engaged in the fact that he studied acting and improved.
Serious approach and worthy reward for your work
The zeal and the time spent on study definitely paid off: for the first serious work in the series "Celeste", where he played the terminally ill guy with AIDS, Guidi received the award. It was an award for a supporting role - Martin Ferro (1992).
He was then invited to the Antonella series, after which Osvaldo Gidi woke up famous. The actor remembered the Russian audience and fell in love with the role of Bernardo in the youth series with Natalia Oreiro in the title role - "Wild Angel" (1998-1999). His character was a bit controversial and quite complex, but Guidi brilliantly coped with the role, managing to give Bernardo's pedant charm, kindness and warmth. It is worth saying that filming in the series "Wild Angel" was the last serious work of Osvaldo Guidi in the movie.
School of acting in Buenos Aires
The actor for a long time did not lose hope of success and recognition, was inspired by enthusiasm. He tried himself on television, worked as a theater director, stepped on the path of drama, in general, tried to stay afloat in all possible ways. Due to such an ardent passion for his dream, the personal life of Osvaldo Guidi did not work out. He was never married, and in a romantic relationship was not.
Many Argentinean journalists claim that the actor was quite secretive, but his confessions and thoughts, put on public display on social networks, indicate the opposite. Guides wrote without hesitation that without influential friends and almighty relatives, recognition cannot be achieved.
Point
According to friends of Osvaldo Gidi, whose biography is on the agenda today, he often became depressed due to lack of demand. The last outlet of the famous Bernardo was the acting school, opened by him in Buenos Aires. There Guidi spent all his free time trying to look busy with what he loved. However, this was just a picture, which hid dissatisfaction and unrecognition. In the end, the actor decided to put an end to, having lost all hope of getting a serious role in the theater or cinema.
Osvaldo Gidi, whose cause of death is not known for certain, was found hanged at his acting school on October 17, 2011. He did not leave notes, but a day before his death posted on his Facebook wall words that he was too old to seek luck in another country. He was only 47.
