Proskurin artist biography

St. Petersburg 2nd Krasnoarmeyskaya St. Has fame after the role of Genka Lyapishev from the "Great Change". But by chance, he was born in Kazakhstan. The father of the future famous actor worked on railway refrigerators. The railway workers in the brigade had its own car with rather comfortable domestic conditions, up to the possibility of cooking food. Therefore, his pregnant wife dared to go on a business trip with her husband.

But the baby was born ahead of schedule - February 8 of the year - in the Kazakh city of Atbasar. Proskurin’s childhood passed on the outskirts of the capital. The family lived in a hut in Tsaritsyno. The craving for the beautiful vein in the soul of Victor from childhood. In his school years, he visited a literary circle, was engaged in the theater studio at the Palace of Pioneers.

It was there that the assistant for actors once came up in search of a suitable boy for the role in the film “Orlyate Chapai” seeing Vitya, she told him: “Come to the Gorky Film Studio.” Proskurin independently reached the studio, he was approved for the role of a young Chapaevts. He liked acting in the cinema, but life went on as usual, and it was necessary to solve pressing problems.

As the actor recalled, after filming in the "Orlyans" he left the usual school and, going to the evening, got a job. In childhood, Viktor Proskurin, he worked at the felt-and-line factory-standing behind the press machine, rubbing felt boots. According to Soviet times, the young man received astronomical money - from to rubles per month, depending on the production.

When he laid out his first salary on the table in front of his parents, they gasped - they did not immediately believe that he had earned everything honestly. Having received secondary education, Proskurin went to enter the theater. At the Shchepkinsky School, he did not pass the selection at the admission commission released a malicious joke about his little eyes, and he himself was not particularly torn there.

At the Moscow Art Theater School, he looked at his stately potential competitors and realized: "This dandelion will not take root here." He was really not taken due to small stature. The woman-pedagogue, who took the exam, got off the lace on the boot and she, sitting at the table, leaned to tie it. And Proskurin, who at that time read Chekhov’s story, leaned under the table after her.

As he explained after years, he wanted a woman to see his eyes. But she perceived his behavior as a mockery, stood up and pointed him with a finger at the door, bargaining “out of here! The story with the entry ended at the Shchepkinsky School, where Victor again submitted documents for the next year. True, he acted on an additional set, as before that he made a record for applicants 64 errors in the dictation and was refused.

With the birthday of Viktor Proskurin, the theater graduated from the school in, Proskurin began working in the theater on Taganka, but quickly left - he could not work with colleagues. He was called to him by the artistic director of Lenkoma Mark Zakharov. In this theater, the actor worked until a year, playing his most vivid roles and gaining recognition in theatrical circles.

Among his most memorable works in Lenkom is the executioner from Tilya or, for example, Sergey Lukonin from the production of a guy from our city. He left the theater because of the great employment in the cinema-he quarreled on this basis with Zakharov. Leaving Lenkom, he moved to the service of the theater. From there he resigned of his own free will, when Oleg Menshikov, who came to the leadership, began the global “cleaning”.

In addition, Proskurin really did not go on stage for a long time. A career in a movie in the cinema, not counting the role in the “Chapai Eagles”, began with the actor with the painting “Belarusian Station” - he got a small role of Petka, the young partner Ivan Prikhodko. Then, along with Elena Koreneva, he played in the film “Appointment”. Victor did not bring glory to the film, but thanks to this work he met with director Alexei Korenev, who starred in his star role Genki Lyapishev in the film “Big Change”.

The crown phrase of his hero “Walk, go to school, and then bam! The second shift ”has become common. Viktor Proskurin in the film “Big Change” in the future, the actor did not always get the main roles, but all his hero was memorable: Kolya from “12 chairs”, Borya Maslov from “This is all about him”, large father Kirill Kruglov from “One day, twenty years later” and many others. He remembered the audience in the film “Peak Lady”, where he created the image of Herman.

The Gemini Scholto from the “Treasures of Agra” sank into the soul of one of the series “The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson”, as well as the captain of Blinov from the film “Marry Captain” for a creative career that broke out in the year, the actor played more than a hundred and thirty roles in the cinema. The personal life of Viktor Proskurin Viktor Proskurin was married five times.

For the first time, he married in his student years - in the fourth year his wife, a classmate Olga Gavrilyuk became his wife. In the year, they had a daughter of Alexander, who became an actress in the future. When Sasha was small, Proskurin had a relationship with Tatyana Derbeneva, a colleague in the theater. This marriage lasted three years.Then Proskurin married Svetlana Kolganova, the director, with whom the actor met on samples in Leningrad.

It was this woman who supported Viktor Alekseevich after the fatal accident, which he got into the year. As the actor recalled, he himself was to blame for the incident - he violated the rules of the road, deciding to rebuild in dangerous proximity to the traffic light, and another, which rode in his lane crashed into his car.

Proskurin flew through the glass, received multiple injuries, including liver gap. At this time, a man was driving past the “six” who watched the “big change” the day before. I saw on the road lying "Genka Lyapishev." In the hospital, the actor fell into the hands of the surgeon Alexander Mikhalev, who at that time was just trying to defend the dissertation on the topic of liver operations.

After the accident and the treatment that followed it, Proskurin’s life changed to degrees. He walked with a cane for a long time, almost never starred and did not play in the theater. Disorded with Kolganova: peacefully, feelings have exhausted themselves. They resolved household issues, exchanged an apartment and remained in good relations. The fourth wife of the actor was actress Irina Smurova.

The connection did not last long, and Viktor Proskurin did not like to remember her. In the year, he met at the commemoration of Pavel Laughter with the artist Irina Honda, who was 19 years younger than Proskurina. In the year they got married. Irina was next to Viktor Alekseevich when he suffered from alcoholism, and when he was diagnosed with oncology and anorexia, which is why he lost up to 42 kilograms.

Viktor Proskurin and his wife Irina shortly before the death of Viktor Alekseevich, the couple divorced - Proskurin considered that for formal reasons his wife was more profitable to be just “his woman” than the official wife. The death of Viktor Proskurin was gone on June 30. He died in a year of life from obstructive lung disease - suffocated. Irina Honda recalled that she could not even say goodbye: there was a height of the coronavirus epidemic, and Proskurin got into the “red zone”, where they just didn’t let him in: he managed to shout “I love you” - and the doctor took the phone.

When I heard his voice, I realized that everything was. It was Tuesday, and on Wednesday at 23 o'clock he died. Farewell to the actor took place at the Theater Institute. He buried him in the Troekurovsky cemetery. Victor Proskurin: Latest news and articles.
