One of the most sought-after actors of the domestic cinema Peter Fedorov does not like to give interviews - therefore and interest in his person is huge. To thirty-four years, he managed to visit the chief major majority of domestic television screens, the most terrible nazis of copyright cinema, the hero of the Great Patriotic, the artist-avant-garde and duelist. Art education allows him to be completely calmly treated with the shooting in nude. But he exposes not only the body, but also the soul. After all, in his paintings, he does not play, he lives them.
- Peter, you are the heir of the acting dynasty. Father, grandfather, cousin - all the actors. It would seem that your fate is predetermined, but after school you filed documents in Stroganovka.
- I never wanted to be an actor. He dreamed of becoming an artist, entered the school. Ball drew with a cube. Everyone was waiting for when we reached naked at nature. And when it happened, we had such an ugly fitter, that she became my first demotivator. (Laughs.)
- And how did fate led you to Pike?
- In the 1999th dad died - cancer. He was only thirty-nine years old. When we were brought on the bus on the cemetery, some elderly woman hooked for me and asked what I do. Very surprised and even indignant that I was not going to continue my father's case. She said that I would definitely need to learn poem and fastener - and at least try to enter the theater university. Her name was Galina Lvovna Konovalova, she turned out to be an actress of the theater. Vakhtangov. This woman hypnotized me. As a result, I entered the pike, became the actor and never regretted it.
- You have a prime minister. In the summer - "pure art", in the fall - "duelist" and "icebreaker". And now the film "Adventures of a Nutty Professor" comes to the screens. Is it a colossal performance?
- Films for a long time were in production. I do not participate in the filmmakers, I'm not shooting in five pictures per year. After the "icebreaker" rested four months. Communicating with his family, went to the movies, read the book, went to Kostroma, skiing rode. As an actor, you need to gain energy before shooting in the next project. "The Adventures of the Chocked Professor" is the film Renata Davletyarov. I play it a young and ambitious scientist on the doorstep of the discovery. All that is in his life is science. Unusual character for me. Heroic actions does not make it, and you won't call him the scum. (Smiles.) We shot a good movie for family viewing.

- Duelist has become one of the main filmmakers last year. How was the shooting?
- fantastic scenery were built, whole quarters were braked in St. Petersburg. Others were put on the facades of the houses, the kilotons of peat were scattered through the streets, poured it with water. Walking throughout this Mesof, they launched a carriage ... Seeing the first official photos from filming, Mom asked: "Sing, I do not understand what you are shooting there: a movie about the XIX century or" matrix "? Alexey Mizgiev destroys stereotypes, showing Petersburg of that time not as we used to represent it: more brutal, dirty, dangerous, impregnated with blood and hatred. But in the midst of this nightmare, like outbreaks, are incredible, beautiful women, thanks to them something changes for the better.
- You shot from real duel guns of the XIX century. Why did not use props?
- This is a special energy when you hold a dealer weapon and think how many people from him were killed. Alexey Yuryevich told me: "Take this gun, put it in my pocket and go with him around the city to feel the power of the energy of this thing." I like that element of the reliability that is now returning to cinema.
- During filming on the Barents Sea, you immersed in ice water. Didn't think about a double?
- No, it was very cool. We were filmed on the Kola Peninsula. Mishe Maryanov, our pyrotechnic, was tasked to create Northern SPA. (Smiles.) It was a scene where the Indians speak, the wounds of my hero's wounds. And he at this time lies in the space between the stones, where the water is poured. Alexey Yuryevich said: "Let's try to heat one of these" baths ", at least a bit." Mikhail Mareanov put some huge lamps and heated the water. But northern nature took her. Algae and moss blushed. I had to shift a little bit aside and dive into cold water. Frames were worth it. This is such an acting buzz when you give out yourself! At such moments you will be erasing the line between reality and cinema.
- It's true that before the samples you did not sleep for several days?
- I did not sleep almost three days. Alexey Yuryevich Mizgyev asked me about it. He was important to this heat and red eyes. My hero Yakovlev is a retired officer who participates instead of other people in dueling for money, a deadly tired man. The director wanted me physically felt it on myself. I lost to fifteen kilograms, ate one broccoli. It was necessary to correspond to the image of the hero. For me, this is not the victims, you know? It is interesting. I do my job and I do not want to chelnting.
In the "Duelant" partner of Peter was Vladimir Mashkov
Frame from the movie "Duelist"
- What are your impressions from working with Vladimir Mashkov?
"Vladimir Lvovich - a man who hits his energy to novel, he literally clings her, fascinates. We were not familiar with him before the filming. And when they met, he looked at me as if he looked into the soul. In the scene should always be the moment of learning and moment of the fight. Mizgiv specifically stuck everything: and Mashkov, never crossed, except in the frame. He is my antagonist, and we fight the whole movie. No need to diliate emotions that can be for the actor the best tool. Communicating a lot in the corridors, you can confuse them.
- Before shooting in the "Iceware" you met with Captain Rodchenko, your character is written off from him. What was this meeting?
"In secret from Homerika and from the entire film crew, I turned to the captains association and found contacts Rodchenko. When I gave me a number, I understood what I had to say who I am what I want from him. And he can respond completely differently ... and I am very grateful to Valentina Filippovich for the warm welcome, which he had it. We had a real male meeting, and I came to him with a jar of jam, I thought I could drink tea. (Laughs.) From him, I went straight to Murmansk on staggering legs. (Smiles.) Captain Rodchenko awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union. One hundred and thirty-three days he was in ice captivity and could perish at any time. The setting on the ship contributed to the riots and inadequate human behavior. From his stories, my hair was moved on my head, and I understood that some episodes are simply not intended for the mass spectator. Valentina Filippovich on the ship had to be not only captain, but also a psychologist. And he, like any living person, also has the right to his own fears. He then won them together with the doctors for long-long years ... Such a drift is equal to a feet in war.
- Where did the icebreaker filmed?
- In Murmansk, Lenin's icebreaker-museum, a little in Sevastopol and St. Petersburg. Small film crew flew to Islands Franz Joseph. I would be happy to truly lie in the drift on a real icebreaker, but this, of course, will not allow producers.
- Do you like a movie spell?
- I really like to travel. The expedition can be completely concentrated at work, and after changing to come to your trailer, drink one hundred grams and fully relax. The only thing I, of course, miss my family madly. Because of this load, it turns out that I see them a total of three or four months a year.
- And how does your girlfriend Anastasia relate to such costs?
"We are twelve years together, and she is already accustomed to." The most important thing in the relationship is trust, respect. Support for loved ones is very important, but for the wrath cinematographers, especially.

Gennady Avramenko
- You had experience in filming in frank scenes. In the film "Saransch" with Paulina Andreva, in "pure art" with Anna Chipovskaya. Anastasia is not jealous?
- Sex in cinema is a certain toolkit, without which the story will not work. If you need to show the history of love, then there should be chemistry between actors. Over the years you understand that love is not only a passion, but more fundamental feelings. Mutual respect. In our relationship with Nastya it is present. In general, when you meet a "my" person, the questions of jealousy are departed to the tenth plan.
- Did you immediately understand that this is "yours"?
- Yes, because at that moment I have already gained myself. When you are in your place, you form the correct grid of the circumstances around, and everything develops. You find your purpose, the matter of your life and the "own" person.
- By the way, with Anastasia, too, there was also an experience of frank shooting for a glossy magazine ...
- We are not just undressed for a gloss, there was an interesting idea: the number went to the midst of the economic crisis, when everyone grabbed his head, literally got sick with this crisis. And then there is a magazine with the word "love" on the cover and the concept, which was that it remains except this. Such a banter or even self-suck. We supported the idea. While young - you can. But since then we try not to expose our feelings.
- If we talk about the evolution of your heroes: from not the most pleasant majors ("club", "phobos") to dramatic parties, how did such a jump occurred?
- I went to this for a long time. My main luck is that I got into good hands. My master at the university Leonid Maryagin took me to his picture "101st kilometer." I didn't understand anything then - and I taught me a lot. I was seventeen years old, I was very afraid: in the first year - and immediately the main role. There I beat my boot on the face for each wrong double - the film was filmed on the film ... The TV series "Club" was my first big television work. TV shows you many times, makes people "injection", and you become interesting to them. At first I was shocked by the amount of attention that suddenly collapsed me. But then I realized that this is a credibility of trust from the target audience and I must develop that the audience also grew, intend to be interested in other pictures.

- How do you come to choosing roles?
- If you saw all the scripts that I come to the mail! Some even read is impossible. For me, the identity of the director is important, because everything is spinning around him. I do two work per year, and there can be no intersection - otherwise they deprive yourself tools and generally cheat yourself. I prefer to dive into the project completely and not distracted by other things. Previously, it seemed to me that the history of success is the history of consent, but it turned out that more is a story of failures. Yes, sometimes there may be a "hungry spring", but I hold the bar.
"You attribute a quote about the domestic film industry that this is" eight people who take twenty other people. "
- Well, yes, everything else is doubtful, controversial or an amateur. There are also such "speavor" films that are able to watch only the creator itself. The problem is in the absence of competition. It must be changed, doing your job well.
- Are you a patriot? About Hollywood do not dream?
- Patriotism for me is love for the profession. I am ready to act in Hollywood if there are interesting offers. But I'm not ready to build my career there. To integrate there, you need a lot of time. I spent so many years on professional success in Russia, which never betrayed it. We, like mushrooms, should grow in our forest. Not that "where was born, it was useful there," but it is possible to understand the senses of the Russian soul here.
- You try yourself in the director. What are you interested to shoot?
- We need fiction. In Russia, there is little good cinema in this genre. Fantastics, only Fedor Bondarchuk takes fiction. But how can I take money on shooting? This is the main question for me. While I only make clips for your Race to Space group.
- What place the music takes in your life?
- I do not know the actor I am more or a musician. In my group, I play keys. As soon as the free minute appears, run into the studio. At the same time I believe that the most important thing is in music - exit to the scene. This is a primitive moment. We have no computers and nothing digital, it is an absolutely analog story. Everything is honest, and this is an indescribable feeling. I love club concerts very much, contact with the audience.

- You are talking about contact with the viewer, but do not play in the theater ...
- I am a filmmaker. I love the theater and, probably, from love for him to guard him from myself. (Laughs.) The release of the performance and rehearsals for half a year - no, then I will not be able to remove. Although many people turn out to be combined. I guess I am a two-way: I need more time. I know my resource, and in this sense the body will not deceive. It will not allow one hundred percent, because he knows that he will still work tomorrow.
- I liked your instagram. It has a lot of landscapes, cities, buildings, streets, as if you watch and absorb this world. At the same time not so much selfie and something like that. Most of the actors belong to the narcissistic type of personality. But it seems that you are not.
- Acknowledge, sometimes they scare social networks of my colleagues. I am a contemporance. There is nothing more beautiful than our world. It seems to me that Instagram is needed for this. You will see something, take a picture, lay out, and this photo somewhere flew, she is somewhere. Head and commercialization is not for me. I write everything to me: "Few you". I am enough. I generally have a phantom. Vensene Kassel correctly said that it is less necessary to show themselves.
"You complained that you lack time reading, but I came to the interview with a book." What are you reading?
- Stories Leonid Andreeva. I found this book in my entrance. Someone makes books from the house, and I collect my library. It is necessary to read, constantly in development. Now I am going to re-read the classics: Tolstoy, Dostoevsky. Over the years you start to evaluate their works in a different way.

- In one of the interviews, you said that a real man is a person actions. Is it easy to be so in our emancipated eyelids?
- It is difficult to be an actor and a real man at the same time. The actor depends on very many factors, it is difficult for him to maintain the main men's qualities, and sometimes it is forced to sell. Although I see a lot of positive examples around myself. Real men will never disappear. I was not in situations when I needed to show my heroism. I'm rather a coward. But it all depends on motivation. For what and for the sake of doing a heroic act? Now difficult time. Do not believe positive characters. Even Batman did not believe until he stepped on the dark side. Save the world I am probably not ready. But for the sake of my family is ready for everything.
- During our conversation, I saw Duelyant Yakovleva in you, and Captain Petrov, and other your characters. You always immerse yourself in our films completely. Easy to leave the image?
- Sometimes I catch myself on what I think as my character, I say like him. It is impossible to immediately switch. Determine this face where my hero ends and I start myself. But I try not to bring anything wrong home, in the family. At home I want to be Peter Fedorov. Close people, relatives, friends are those who helps me to remain ourselves.
