Modern cinematography is full of different faces. Some viewers see the actors on television screens very often, so sometimes they even confuse the names of their heroes. Others, for a long time, remember one successful role. Today we will talk about such an actor as Alexey Bardukov. The filmography of this artist already contains more than twenty-five works, despite the fact that he is quite young. He is not yet thirty! The beginning of the acting career of Bardukov can be considered the appearance on TV screens of a picture with his participation under the name "Saboteur". Thanks to the brilliantly played role of Leonid Filatov, Alexei won many admirers. Many of them are wondering about what other films Alexei Bardukov has in his arsenal of modern cinema. Let's find together the answer to this question, in parallel considering the short biography of the actor.

Childhood of Alexei Bardukov

In 1984, on November 18, a third child was born in the family of a locksmith and a factory worker - Alexei Igorevich Bardukov. The family lived very modestly, until 1996, parents with three children huddled in a room in a communal apartment, and only when Alexei was already in sixth grade did they move to their own separate housing. Lesha studied at a regular Moscow school, went in for sports. He was attracted to oriental martial arts, swimming, fencing, and especially - football. By the time the hour had come to say goodbye to the school bench and choose a profession, Alexei had not decided what he wanted to devote his life to. Everything was decided by an accidentally overheard conversation between two classmates. They talked about the paid courses of the School-Studio of the Moscow Art Academic Theater. Alex decided to try to do the same, although before that he had no idea what the theater was, and especially his backstage life. Parents with difficulty, but still found money to train his son.

A life-long affair

After the successful graduation from the school, Lesch immediately entered three universities: the RATI, the Shchukin school and the Moscow Art Theater School. As his "alma mater of science" he chose the last educational institution. For the most part, his choice was influenced by the fact that Raikin Constantine himself was taking the course there . So the new actor Alexey Bardukov began his journey. Filmography began to form after the acquisition of considerable experience in the theater. As a student, Alexei already played on the stage of the Satyricon. And after graduating from the school-studio he became one of the members of his troupe. With his participation in the period from 2002 to 2008, The viewer saw such theatrical performances on the stage of the Satirikon Theater: The Lonely West, The Profitable Place, Signor Todero the Host, The Blue Monster, The Country of Love, Case, Durochka, The Artist's Alphabet and many others.

Roles in the cinema

Already a well-proven theatrical actor Alexei Bardukov aspired to light up and in the cinema. On the set, he also got a student. Then he learned that for the new series "Saboteur" they were looking for young guys. Bardukov, without hesitation, went to the screen test. There he got acquainted with the same "green" actor Pletnev Cyril, with whom they quickly found a common language and even became friends. About the fact that the role of young sergeants - Bobrikov and Filatov - was a huge contest, the guys simply did not know, and therefore kept easy and at ease. As they now recall, if it was otherwise, they would surely have failed the tests without coping with the excitement.

Another difficulty almost cost Bardukov further training. The thing is that Konstantin Raikin has always been categorically against having his students act in films. While Bardukov passed screen tests, Raikin was away, and so his young actor did not get permission. One of the teachers gave it kindly. But when Raikin returned and found out that Bardukov plans to act in the "Saboteur", he demanded his immediate payment. The main argument of his decision was that other students on the example of Bardukov may also require permission to withdraw. But fellow students persuaded Konstantin Raikin not to expel Alexei. Thus, he was able to continue his studies and take part in the shootings.

"Saboteur"

Beginning actors Alexei Bardukov and Kirill Pletnev were lucky to work on the same set with such actors as Andrei Krasko, Oleg Tabakov, Vladislav Galkin, Vladimir Menchov, who helped the young colleagues in every way, supported and gave good professional advice. The guys seemed to be in a real army - they ran around the fields and forests, and swam in the swamps, and they shot, and even got injured. A good school then passed, and Kirill Pletnev, and Alexei Bardukov. The filmography of the last actor has been replenished with other equally interesting works. But the viewer for a long time remembered him as the young sergeant Filatov Leonid.
