"Mila, the film" Oz: Great and Horrible "- the prehistory of the famous fairy tale L. Frank Bauma. And what fairy tale do you like most?
"Since childhood, I still adore" Alice in Wonderland "Lewis Carroll. It seems to me, to fall in the rabbit Nora - terribly interesting. Always wanted to experience such sensations. (Laughs.)
- Did you like Tim Berton's movie?
- Yes, because I love Johnny Depp. His hatter is just a handsome man! But, predicting your question, I will not compare the book and the film. Because the movie is a vision of this fairy tale Tim Berton. He as a director has full right. And the book is actually much gloomy film. But with fairy tales, it is generally often happening. Here, for example, Cinderella. In the original fairy tale, one of the sisters cut off his fingers to get into the shoe. This is a nightmare!
- In the picture you played a wizard. And what magical ability would like to have in life? What would change with it?
"If I were a wizard, I didn't change anything." Everything suits me, I like everything in my life. Although it may have done myself invisible. At least for a while. Because sometimes I really want it. (Laughs.)

- And what magic do you use in life to conquer the hearts of men?
- I do not even know. But if I knew, I did not say, but what would it be for magic?
- Your heroine is a kind and naive wizard - due to unrequited love turns into a witch. What do you think unhappy love is really able to turn the girl in the witch?
- I think yes. Especially when it happens in a fairy tale. She is a young girl who falls in love with madly. But she broke the heart. She is stunned, she just clins from pain, her emotions overlap. And to survive this pain, she has to go through some physical transformation. In ordinary life, of course, everything is not so scary. But in the life of an offended woman can become a monster, and hidden deep inside the witch will come out. So I do not advise to offend women. (Laughs.)
- What can you turn into a witch?
- Everything! I am a very temperamental man. Irritable, quick-tempered. Sometimes some trifle can simply take me out of myself. But I try to hold back, not always to give will to my emotions. After all, people are not to blame that I take some things too close to the heart. But with all my cool, I would not call myself a witch.
- You immediately took exactly this role? Good wizard to become not offered?
- No, no, what are you! I'm not a blonde, I can't play a good wizard. (Laughs.)

- The plot of the film unfolds in a magical country. Is the most magical place in which you have ever visited?
- I think my house is a very magical place. I love Northern California: San Francisco, Sonoma, Sacramento. Another Santa Barbara. And terrain around Los Angeles: I like to go there, I always open something new for myself. Outside the US, I adore Sydney. I can not say that he is magical, but I really like in Australia. But what really has a magical effect on me is Tuscany. To Italy I have some special reverent feeling. Food, Wine, People, Nature - everything is fine there.
- And where would you like to go?
- in Africa. I can not say where exactly, but this is my big dream. Perhaps in Machu Picchu in Peru. I know that this is something stunning, and I would very much like to see myself. And I never happened to Morocco.
- In his previous visit to Moscow a year and a half ago, you said you want to visit my homeland - in the city of Chernivtsi. Succeeded?
- (goes into Russian. - Ed.) When? No time I have! I also need a visa. And the plane does not fly to Chernivtsi. I need to come to Kiev, then go by train, then by bus. (Again in English. - Ed.) I will never decide on this. Yes, and not to master. Only with the whole family: with dad, mom, brother. And someday we will definitely go. Although it will be a very difficult journey. After all, in fact, this is a trip to nowhere.
- Last time you managed to walk a little in Moscow. And now? Something new for myself opened?
- No, all the same. I even live in the same room as last time. And I have no time to look at Moscow. Then we even went to the Kremlin, and today I got up at seven in the morning to bring myself in order and go down on two floors down to journalists. Now I will finish all interviews and go to prepare for the red carpet at the premiere. And then immediately at the airport and another city.
- You do not get tired of your work?
- (sighs. - Ed.) I love what I am doing. And I also love to communicate with people. But it happens that you sit, look at all people around and think: "Lord, what am I doing here?" Especially when idiotic questions begin to ask. But in such situations, I'm leaving all, I try to calm down and go out again. After all, these are solely my problems, and they do not concern anyone. And in general, I think that I was very, very lucky with the work. So do not complain.
- And what is the most idiotic question you were asked?
- Well, not idiotic, okay. I am angry. But it happens: it sits in front of you a journalist, he can ask about anything. And he suddenly: "Do you have a dream?" Well, what should I answer it? I pretend that I am thinking: "Oh, a dream ..." and I give out: "Yes, you know, I have a dream!" And he is happy. So I do not understand why ask such questions. It's stupid. (Laughs.)
- Then you can one stupid question: what do you think the tale is possible in life?
- Sure. Why not? I think my life looks like a fairy tale. (Smiles.)
