Today we want to tell you about an actor who is loved by millions of viewers in Russia and far beyond its borders. His name is Ilyin Vladimir Adolfovich.
Childhood, family
The future famous actor was born on November 16, 1947 in the glorious city of Sverdlovsk. His dad served as an actor in the Sverdlovsk theater, and was very in demand. Mom - Honored Worker of Medicine, pediatrician. Like many children of actors, Volodya, together with his younger brother Sasha, spent a lot of time behind the scenes of the theater. As a child, the boy tried his hand at ballet and figure skating. But the main place in his soul still occupied the theater stage.
He understood early that his life could only be connected with art. And when his former classmates were just thinking where to go to study, Ilyin entered the theater school of the city of Sverdlovsk, which he successfully graduated in 1969.
Theater work
Vladimir Ilyin began his career at the Skomorokh Theater. With this team, the future actor visited many cities of the former Soviet Union. Then he moved to Kazan, and a few years later to Moscow. The capital was not too strict for the provincial artist, and pretty quickly actor Ilyin Vladimir got a seat in the famous Mayakovsky Theater. By the way, a place was also found for Vladimir’s father. Since then, they began to work on the same stage. Two years later, the ranks of the actors were joined by Vladimir's brother Alexander, who continued the theatrical dynasty of the Ilyins.
Vladimir Ilyin served in this famous theater until 1989. It was on this stage that his tragicomic talent was revealed. Despite the fact that the roles of Vladimir were mostly small, and sometimes even episodic, they were always noticeable. Former colleagues of Ilyin recall that he always went on stage with great pleasure, and working with him was extremely easy - he could always play along and support. He never fought for roles, he could easily concede them, he was extremely tactful. Meanwhile, work in the movie fascinated him. Actor Ilyin Vladimir left the theater to devote himself to cinema.
Vladimir Ilyin: filmography
In the movie, the debut work of Vladimir Adolfovich was the role of Roman in the film "My Favorite Clown". At that time, the actor was already almost forty years old. This film was followed by "Sedov Defender", and then - a bright and strong work in the film "Accident - daughter of the cop." When the actor Ilyin Vladimir appeared in front of the audience in the image of a traffic cop, all, without exception, were amazed at his exact hit in the image. It was no longer a handsome brave officer with an advertising poster. Before us was a modest and laconic peasant, a loving, but somewhat awkward father.
Vladimir Ilyin, whose filmography began to rapidly fill up with very bright and highly professional works, a year later played the role of Rakhlin (the unfortunate writer) in the film “The Cap”, in the film “Roy” - the idiot Artyusha, and in “Lost in Siberia” - KGB officer Malakhov . As you can see, Vladimir Ilyin, whose photos are presented in this article, is a diverse actor. He is not a hostage to the role. He can handle any role - from comedic to dramatic.
"He is not an artist at all ..."
Once upon a time, the program was dedicated to Ilyin. And it is so named not by chance. In fact, Vladimir is more like a neighbor on the landing, a fisherman on the lake, a turner after a shift, rather than an actor. But it was precisely this inconspicuous appearance and the greatest talent that made him one of the most popular and popular actors in Russian cinema in the nineties. It is important that quite often the directors invited him, who had already worked with him once.
As a rule, films with Vladimir Ilyin are filled with the naturalness and good nature of his heroes. In many ways, this comes from the character of the actor himself. Remember Savelich from the movie “Russian Revolt” (2000) or Semyon Lyamkin in the comedy “I Want to Prison” (1998), which fell into trouble due to other people's financial frauds. Or German - a former Russian journalist - from the movie “Sagittarius restless” (1993), which seeks to use the “corridor of time” to move freely in the sixties. No less interesting are his roles in the paintings “Do not be sad!” and “The Hare Over the Abyss” are films, when you watch them, you relax your soul.
The actor has been working a lot lately. We will introduce you to his most striking works of this period. Vladimir Ilyin, whose filmography includes one hundred (!) Paintings, is very much in demand today. On their film sets, the most famous directors of the country are waiting for him. Many of them are sure that films with the participation of Vladimir Ilyin are doomed to success.
