The "Elusive"

In two parts from the famous Soviet trilogy - in "The Crown of the Russian Empire" and in "The New Adventures of the Elusive" - he played Captain Ovechkin. His character was not among the main characters, but he added a fair amount of color in one of the most popular films of that period. Hero Dzhigarkhanyan - white officer - was almost the most dangerous antagonist. Creating his image, Armen Borisovich gave the character an ominous line, making it real, alive. One need only recall the nervous tic that strikes Ovechkin at the most intense moments of the plot narrative, and the way he pulled the collar of his uniform, making a wheezing breath, as if his tunic was strangling him. But the viewer at that moment understood that the hero was strangling his jacket, not at all, but with cruel anger. Films by Armen Dzhigarkhanyan always clung to the viewer, who, without words, caught the nature of the character performed by the master and his intentions.

"Meeting place can not be Changed"

From the character there was an undetected wave of cruelty and strength, it was felt by everyone looking, which was on the other side of the screen. The gangster bandit really scared, it was not even a beautiful professional make-up and verified replicas, the actor knew how to look at the camera that instantly it became clear - his character is capable of anything, without pity and reproaches of conscience. However, the talent of the maestro to play the spiteful, fierce authorities of the criminal world was exploited in the cinema even more than once. He incredibly convincingly played really dangerous people.

"Treasure Island". John Silver, a seasoned pirate

For the sake of justice it is worth noting that this is not a role, but a voice-over. But during the final credits of the cartoon, the actor appears on the screen in the guise of his cartoon character. His phrase from the animation project "And then those who remain alive, envy the dead" immediately became a winged one, causing a shudder in the horror of not only the animated opponents of Silver, but also especially impressionable spectators.

The animation film "Treasure Island" was watched with great pleasure by both children and adults, however, like other films with Armen Djigarkhanyan, the list of which is given in this publication. Another voice acting of the cartoon character - poor Wolf, from "Once upon a time there was a dog" - is also penetrating, impressionable, and especially the phrase "I'll sing it!" Is remembered. Even the cartoon characters turned out to be completely charismatic - unforgettable.

Shirley-Myrli

In the black comedy of Vladimir Menshov, Armen Borisovich played the role of the mafia boss Kozyulsky. Since the humor in the film was on the verge of a foul, then the character of the actor appeared before the viewer completely not deprived of prudishness and not embarrassed by scabrous jokes. His phrases turned into memes and freely walk on the Internet. And what is the "outfit" of Kozyulsky? With unflappable luster and ease, he wears a brightly orange jacket with an equally striking yellow shirt, and all "splendor" is emphasized by a green neck scarf. The character of Dzhigarkhanyan looked like a real dandy, perfectly fitting into the atmosphere of comedy.

"Dog in the manger"

Passionate love senora Diana and Teodoro was unlikely to have been crowned with a rich wedding, if not for the efforts of the crafty trifle Tristan - the lackey Teodoro performed by Armen Borisovich. Soviet critics in his reviews called his character a true decoration of the picture. Paradoxically, the replica of the movie hero was voiced by Ivan Efimov, and the tips for the ward and the song sound in the original author's performance of the legend of Soviet cinema.

Armen Djigarkhanyan's films can be listed for a very long time, each of them is legendary and worthy to replenish the gold collection of the world film industry.
