Alexander Kaidanovsky - an atypical representativeSoviet cinema. His life was full of sharp turns, but at the same time resembled a rapid flight, which was interrupted so unexpectedly that it seemed that there was a certain mystic in the death of this extraordinary person.
Childhood
Kaidanovsky Alexander Leonidovich was born inRostov-on-Don, in an ordinary non-actor family. Although there was some relation to culture and art in this house: the mother worked as a director at the club. Theatrical abilities of the boy was not found. The desire to become an actor was perceived by school friends with great surprise.
Стремление к переменам у Александра было с childhood. After his parents divorced, he lived with his mother. Then with grandma. After moving to his father. But she did not get along with her stepmother. Having spent a lot of time with his relatives, he spent a year in a boarding school, and after leaving his native Rostov and went to look for happiness in Dnepropetrovsk.
Freedom and independence he retained for alla life. The restless character did not let him stop. Alexander was constantly in search. Deciding to get a working profession, he went to enroll in the Dnepropetrovsk school. But after studying the whole year, he returned to his hometown and entered the Rostov Theater School.
Years of study
Alexander Kaidanovsky was not calmcharacter, which often led to scandals with colleagues, relatives and even with random people. The first serious conflict occurred in his student years. The quarrel with the teacher led to the fact that Alexander had to change the teacher. Already in those years, the future actor was known among friends and friends as an extraordinary and somewhat selfish person. Selfishness, however, is inherent in almost all the actors. Alexander's extraordinaryness subsequently transformed into a bright rare talent.
After graduation, Alexander moved toMoscow and entered the Moscow Art Theater School. But even here he did not stay long, leaving the walls of a prestigious educational institution on his own initiative. Education continued in the school to them. Shchukin, where he also studied without much enthusiasm, typical of any provincial youth. In Rostov, he was waiting for the girl, the future wife.
Personal life
First wife - Irina Bychkova.The marriage lasted only four years. After the divorce, Alexander Kaidanovsky began a long, painful affair with an exalted actress Valentina Malyavina. As expected, nothing serious came out of this relationship.
The second wife was Evgenia Simonov.Third - Natalie Sudakov. The fourth marriage has become particularly fleeting. With Inna, Pivars Kaidanovsky lived only three weeks, although he rather carefully prepared for the wedding and even put on a dress suit on this occasion. Wedding photos turned out to be illuminated.
Such incidents occurred more than once, which, for example, occurred after death, at a funeral, when not a single picture could be taken. This, perhaps, gave rise to rumors about the mysteriousness of Kaidanovsky.
First roles
For the first time on the screen, Kaidanovsky appeared inepisodic role. In the film "The Mysterious Wall" Alexander Kaidanovsky played a research assistant. A few months later he received a role in the film based on the novel of the same name by M. Dostoevsky “The Player”. The following year, viewers saw him in the film adaptation of Anna Karenina.
The first for Alexander Kaidanovsky was the Theater.Vakhtangov. But the complex relationship in the troupe did not allow him to work in this theater for a long time. Kaidanovsky was fired from the theater, after which his family was in an almost disastrous situation.

The role of Nikita Mikhalkov in the film influenced hisa life. Fame and alcohol caused many scandalous situations, one of which nearly led to the dock. It should be said, however, that with an irascible temper and an inability to compromise, Alexander Kaidanovsky was a man of fine mental organization. Somewhere a dreamer and a visionary, he looked at life through the prism of the ideas of Russian classics. Even in his poorly furnished apartment, he did not see poverty, but Dostoevsky's original style.
The pinnacle of creativity was the role in the film A. Tarkovsky "Stalker".
In the nineties, Alexander Kaidanovsky filmed a little. The reason was not in the absence of directors' interest in him, but rather in the unwillingness of the actor himself to act in a bad movie.
His last role Kaidanovsky AlexanderLeonidovich played in the Spanish film “Angel's Breath”, having received a huge fee. He died, however, in a communal flat. The interior of his last refuge inspired a light horror: angels on the walls and a black ceiling. One of his colleagues joked: "Here you die."
