Nikolai Burlyaev spoke about working with the actress on the film “Military Field Romance”
One of the memorable film works of the wonderful actress Inna Churikova, who died on Saturday, was her role in the film “Military Field Romance”. Her partner in this picture was the actor Nikolai Burlyaev. He spoke about meeting with the actress on the set.
– Even before my personal meeting with Inna Churikova, I always considered her the number 1 actress, whom the Lord gave out of the ordinary talent, the ability to be a conductor of the highest divine energies. Therefore, her image, each image in the film, in each performance, they are endowed with a special energy power.
She, apparently, intuitively felt what the Gospel says, referring to actors, directors, musicians, artists, writers.
There are a lot of actors who can pronounce the text and do not attach importance to the word. Therefore, everything is gray, does not have the magic that Inna Churikova possessed. Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks. In her images, from the abundance of the heart, her lips spoke, she understood the meaning of each word.
I felt this when we worked with her on the film “Military Field Romance”. It was such a pleasure! Before our meeting, I dreamed of getting to know this actress as a partner, and then this opportunity presented itself. And the whole time making this film was intoxicating. Calm, respectful attitude towards each other. Flight time and grace. She improvised all the time. She brought her version, her vision, her texts to our director for shooting, which simply were not in the script.
Further, our friendship grew stronger, we traveled around the world together, presenting this film, became friends and saw each other often. She came to festivals.
I am very glad that last year at the Golden Knight forum we awarded Inna Churikova and Gleb Panfilov with the Golden Knight prize. And two performances were amazing. I am very glad that a few years before that I presented her with the highest award of the “Golden Knight” – the gold medal named after Mordvinov for an outstanding contribution to theatrical art. A huge loss for all of us. I have not yet realized that it is not. This woman was the most amazing and mysterious, but she was not, but always will be!.
Honored actress, State Duma deputy Elena Drapeko:
– What can I say … No words. She was a wonderful actress, an extraordinary person, with a very difficult, but wonderful creative destiny. For me, her unforgettable work in the film “There is no ford in the fire” and in the film “The Beginning”. Of course, they are old, but they are watched as if the films were shot yesterday and are very relevant. We knew her only at social events, as they say “capped”. But Inna Churikova always admired. It’s a pity. The blocks of our cinema are leaving.
According to our sources in healthcare, Inna Churikova died today from a neoplasm in the brain. Prior to that, she had been treated for a long time in various clinics.
