Charismatic and bright actor, a spectacular man and son-in-law Mikhail Boyarsky Maxim Matveev in demand in the profession. It is almost impossible to take an interview with him because of a dense schedule. So now the installation of "Anna Karenina" was completed, where he plays Vronsky, and in parallel, there are shooting in the TV series "Mata Hari"; Main roles in several theatrical productions and charitable activities. At the same time, a family remains in the first place for him.
- Maxim, recently ended the shooting of the picture of Karen Shahnazarov "Anna Karenina". How did you feel in the image of the Vronsky?
- I specifically did not revise other tracksuit of the carine in order not to play on ready-made templates. I was interested to form my character's vision. What do we know about Vronsky? He is a handsome young man, an officer who fell in love with a married woman. In essence, everything. Yes, he also loved horses and broke one of them back. Very rarely, the story of Anna Karenina is considered from the position of the Vronsky and his personal features. But if it were not for his character, the final would not be so tragic. My hero is a major boy, in modern language. He has no family values, nobody vaccinated them. Father died early, and the mother, the Bronskaya Countess, was famous for the incredible number of novels both during his father's life and after. His since childhood was accustomed to the thought that an adulter was normal if no one recognizes about it. At eight years he was surrendered to the Piece Corps, which was considered the most depraved educational institution of Russia of the time. From here there is his relationship with Kitty, which he easily throws, because he does not even understand what the responsibility should be forced. If you analyze all the scenes of Anna and Vronsky, when they have conflict, we see that at the moments of an emotional burst, he says all the time: "Anna, well, calm down" and ponuro hangs his head. He does not know how to behave in such situations! He had to show her that there is a strong and loving man next to her, who is able to bear it, some family, public circumstances. But he has no ideas about how the family should be arranged, as the relationship between a man and a woman should be built, and in this is his tragedy. Lack of family values - always tragedy.
- Samples for the role of Vronsky took place in several stages. And your main competitor was Kostya Hooks. What helped you get a role?
- I passed the samples five times on the Vronsky and did not know what it all end. I am calm to the samples, I understand that this is the process of choice. It was not hoping for a victory, but believed. Lisa on the role of Anna Karenina approved much earlier than me. Therefore, I had an advantage over other candidates: we do not need to pass the setting step with Lisa, and the degree of confidence that we have on the set, hardly it would be possible with another partner.

- What are you married couple, played your role?
- Karen Shahnazarov saw in us not a family brand, but an interesting acting duet. Our personal relationships did not interest him. The main thing is what we do on the site. And we are comfortable to play together.
- How is it to play love with your own wife?
- Play love with my wife is much easier than with any other actress. Lisa is an excellent partner. Very sensitive, professional, she always burns with their roles. We had a lot of time at the rehearsal, we discuss our heroes not only on the site, but also at home. Re-read the thick and correlate the script with the author's text.
- "All happy families are similar to each other." You have been married to Lisa for six years. What is the secret of your happy life?
- It is important to look in one direction and be in the dialogue. We talk a lot about the profession, raising a child, books, movies, discuss everything in the world. Despite all the career and creative ambitions, it is important to understand: the family is the main thing in life. It is necessary to remain a sensitive, hearing person, because each family member is a person with their views on life, on its professional future. You need to be considered.
- Do you advise with each other when choosing roles?
- We are always advised, but decisions take each alone. All that concerns our family life, life, is common decisions, and in creativity we can only advise something to each other. For repairs in the house, we argue endlessly, but still come to a common denominator. (Smiles.)
- Is professional criticism present?
- We express our opinion, but it does not look like criticism. I admire my wife, she inspires me. In the movie and theater, I go like a child. I love to admire, I love when I am surprised. For me, this is a way to replenish creative energy. I never watch movies or performances as a critic. And I do not look at Lisa as a critic.
- Many actors say that they are so fit into their role that they even begin to speak in words the character, adopt some characteristic movements, habits. Are you easy to get out of the image?
"I am not aware of my roles and perceive it as a game." I have such a children's perception of the profession. The more my hero does not look like me, the more interesting to me to play it. So it was with Vronsky. I am interested to understand my character, feel it.
- Destinies of heroes affect your life?
- They make me look at the situation under different angles. I am very careful about my roles, it is important for me to understand that I want to convey to the viewer. What's the point? I am interested to experience myself. Will I be able to do it?
In Anne Karenina, spouses play a couple in love
"You abandoned the help of Dubler when the scene was shot at Anna Karenina." Tried themselves in this way?
- Yes. It is important for me to be reliable in all my roles. I have a long-standing attachment. For the first time I sat down at the horse when we shot the film "Thank you for love." But then for a long time was not in the saddle. We wanted to make the scene of races as reliable as possible. And we have a footage, which is not in any adaptation. I trained for a long time. It was not easy. Nervously, fearful, difficult, rainy, hot, in any way ... But I am insanely grateful to Karen Georgievich for allowing me to experience myself. And of course, sports masters, cascaderators, director. Jumping along with them, listening to the tips - this is a huge experience and happiness, my development and for both the actor, and as a person.
- For the sake of this role, you had to lose weight.
- The body for the actor is a tool, a repeater of all sorts of emotions. It needs to be kept in order and have complete control over it. I try to play sports. If there is time, I go to the fitness club, if not, I do banal exercises on the press, pressed.
- When you arrived in Moscow, were squeezed and insecure. Acting career has become a test for you?
- I was a modest boy from Saratov. The acting profession cured me from the complexes. Helped me get rid of uncertainty, to keep himself in conversation. In childhood and in adolescence, I was a very closed child. I actually did not have any friends.
- At the same time, in the graduation class, you wore long hair and dressed in the style of Heavy Metal, for which you even beat in the yard. What caused this desire to stand out from the crowd?
- This is also a kind of manifestation of grip. Attempt to go beyond. At the end of the nineties, there was no such freedom on the streets at least on the streets of Saratov. Of course, I got it then. They beat me, but I did not change my style ... I came to Moscow, too, in such an image, with long hair, with all his raincoats, rusties, and saw that here you can manifest yourself as you want. Here it is - freedom! There was something to survive, and here I immediately threw. There was no protest in this, because here people are more free.

- You have brought up in an intelligent family. Your mother worked as a librarian. How did she react to such individuality pro-phenomena?
- I regret me, I understood, took. I grew up a soft kid. No one ever raised at home on me. I always tried to talk to me. Since childhood, I was an adult in nature, loved to rob. I wanted to become a surgeon, but then we talked to your parents and decided that I would be a lawyer. And since childhood, I myself earned money. Delivered kefir-dairy bottles to the reception point. Money remained me, and I copied them.
- So why did you decide to become an actor? What changed your destiny?
- I was always a rational man, I considered myself not a humanitarian. At the prom, the teacher of the Saratov Conservatory noted me and advised me to come to the theater faculty. I initially refused. I and the theater was once. At the play "Little Baba Yaga", where we were led by the whole class in obligatory, and we sat and did not know how to leave there ...
- And why is still theatrical?
- For the sake of interest. Yes, and parents said: Try, you won't lose anything.
- And how did it happen that you immediately took the second course?
- I went to the institute, having no idea how to play what a actor should be. Did everything in the Nativity. It was like a blank sheet. Perhaps the fact was interesting for teachers. What immediately took me to the second course is in no way connected with my abilities and my acting manifestations at that time. This is a formality. Valentina Aleksandrovna Ermakova was needed on the course a person of a certain invoice. So she took me under their responsibility.
"When you studied at Mkate, you were offered a role in the television series" Poor Nastya ". You could buy an apartment in Moscow to the fee. How could a student from Saratov refuse such a favorable sentence?
- Four-room apartment. My head Igor Yakovlevich Zolotovitsky told me: "You are walking, everyone has time. Not now". And I believed him. I then had a lot of work in the theater, and in the studio school it was necessary to learn to learn. If I agreed to the role in the television series, then something would have to abandon. And I did not want to give up the Moscow Art Theater.

- Not only talent is important in the acting profession, but also good luck. You did not have a feeling of fear when you refused such roles at the beginning of the way?
- Question in priorities. To navigate in Moscow reality, my head helped me. Moscow tempts and gives a lot of reasons to get away from the path that you planned. And these reasons are quite seductive, and you can not always understand what you really need.
- Remember, what was your first way out of the theater scene?
- I remember how I went to the main scene of the MHT them. Chekhov. And it was an absolute failure. I was not heard. At all. It was my first play with Oleg Pavlovich Tobacco, with Marina Vyacheslavovna Zudina ... Oleg Pavlovich after the play said: "Well, an old man. It is necessary to work, you need to work. " It is periodically some kind of programming programs signed me after the premiere: "Well, congratulations, countryman. Voice and once more voice. "
- But now you have no problem with your voice.
- This is all work on yourself. I used to say quietly, this is the manifestation of complexes.
- You play the play "Drunk". This is a modern layout on the play of Ivan Vyrypayev. What is the idea of the performance?
- In this play, all twelve characters are in the state of the wildest alcohol intoxication and lead long dialogues about the meaning of life, about treason, about the deception, about the system ... when there is a low-lying language about such high things, it produces a burning sensation. I love to participate in experimental theatrical productions. Working on the performance, I want to believe that people will talk about him.
- How did the ban on obscene vocabulary affect the performance?
- In connection with the law, the mat was removed. The play softened a little on the effects, but did not lose his flavor and meaning.
- What moral and spiritual values do you consider the main in life?
- Family is the main thing in life. It should be big, and there should be warm and good.
"I understood that it was not easy to meet the status of this family. But I got acquainted with Mikhail Boyarsky closer and realized: we have the same vital values, "Maxim admits

- Remember, how was the acquaintance with Mikhail Sergeyevich Boyarsky?
- I understood that it was obliged to comply with the status of this family. And it will not be easy. But then I met Mikhail Sergeevich closer and calmed down. We have the same life values with him: the family is in the first place. In me, this cult is still my grandfather, mom. I am not a loner, there should be many relatives and loved ones around me. I do not think that if you married, we must exist separately. Family not only husband and wife, but also grandparents, grandmothers, great-grandmothers.
- Mikhail Sergeevich told that you are a very caring father. How did the birth of a son changed you?
- When a child appeared, my goals, the tasks in life shifted to the other side. They stopped being egocentric, a man appeared nearby, who became the center of the Universe. I became more calm, thoughtful, careful. It is interesting for me to observe how this new man grows, as it builds its relationship with the world, with its peculiar to children to wonder the new one. He teaches me to feel this world. It is important for me to be a good father. What is a good dad? The main thing is attention, love and participation. I try to match. Spend more time with your son.
- Before the birth of Andrei, you went to the courses of a young father. What did you learn?
- These courses gave me courage! I felt freedom. I understood how to handle a new member of the Company at that stage when he just appeared. I learned how to help, support, at what point to leave, and in what staying, and this is the most important thing. I think, since I father, it means, should know and understand how to take care of the Son. These courses had an interesting education in education. We were asked a question: "Which of you will raise a child with force?" A lot of people raised her hand. Most. It surprised me. I believe the only acceptable method of upbringing is a conversation.
- What is the main thing in the upbringing of a man?
- It is important to raise a person who is ready to be the head of the family and take responsibility. In the child you need to put the soul, help and learn on your own experience. As his grandfather was taught at one time, for which I am immensely grateful.
- What was your grandfather?
- He was in the broad sense of the word man. Family man, honest, conscientious, working, always followed this word.
"Lisa told that your son already reads, learns an account, studying English, goes to the theater. At the same time, Andrey is only four years old. Are you fans of early development techniques?
"We are engaged in a child, help him find out this world, feel it." If Andrei is wondering something, we tell him about it. We never say "It's too early for you to know" or "to go to the theater too early", we take to your son as an adult person. In the theater, he is the most attentive, the most thoughtful viewer. We love to travel with the whole family, open up new places. Andryusha was already in France, Italy, Georgia, in Greece, in Crimea ... We want to show him the whole world. Often we take it with you on tour. We read Brodsky him. Andrei loves his poems. If a child is committed to knowledge, he needs to help him. Very much, it seems to me, depends on the parents. You need to apply the correct example. If you yourself do not read books and sit in the gadgets all the time, then your children will do the same. It is necessary to start upbringing a child from yourself. In the morning, we are charged with Andrews together. It has already become a habit for us. Son sees that I perform some exercises, and strive to repeat them.
With Liza Boyarskaya - happy together for six years

- You spent my vacation in America in the language school. What is it connected with?
- Life is a development. Very scary to stop at one stage, stop moving on, learn from a new one. We are currently working on the series "Mata Hari." This is an international Russian project in which professionals from other countries take part: artists, artists, sound operators. This is a story about how a woman is trying to regain his daughter from her and a feeling of full life, but confused in his intrigues. Wain Johnte, Rutger Hauer, John Malkovich and others made partners for Russian actors with a foreign side. From our side, Ksenia Rappoport, Victoria Isakov, Alexander Petrov ... We play in English, because all partners English-speaking. For this role, I had to work not only in the way, but also above the tongue, so I went to the language school. My English was completely not perfect.
- Do you have ambitions to conquer Hollywood?
- Only if there is a worthy job. Play bad Russian, fifth left, I'm not interested. (Smiles.)
- You are artistic director of the Dr. Clown Charitable Foundation. Why did you decide to engage in hospital clown?
- Once they called my master and asked if his students could prepare something for children. The initiative group was gathered, in which I entered, my first wife Jan Sexte, and somehow rushed ... We were asked to come to a little girl, which lies in the hospital with a tracheostoma, literally face to the wall, does not get up, does not react to parents. And we, without having no experience of clowns, went to the store, bought the first costumes of the costumes, came up with the script, the noses were tapped and went to this girl. Thart of forty minutes, she drove us all over the department and helped to devote the rest of the children in clowns. Since then, we have done such visits regularly. Then we learned that there are other people in Moscow who practiced such exits, united, and the organization "Dr. Clown" was born.
- What did children teach you to whom you come in the image of Dr. Clown?
- On them, small, falls out so much that not every adult will withstand. And you start to perceive your problems differently: they have, and you are worried that the role does not work! And complain shame becomes.
