I often saw it when went from a hostel to a bus stop on road to institute. The harmonious guy stood in a court yard at the house. Blonde, blue-eyed, and improbably beautiful! But there was no occasion to start talking to it, to get acquainted, make friends �
After a year I helped our dean to carry out selection consultations on actor''s faculty: completed next ten and conducted it in an audience for listening. And suddenly among entrants I have seen that beautiful boy from Harbour. We have bright got acquainted, and have agreed after consultation together to go home.
I have learnt, that ���� have already acted in a film "Mandate" on Lenfilm. Schoolmates took a jaundiced view of its star glory: once at me fists when we went with Boris in the bus burnt, its acquaintances frankly scoffed at it, I would like to cut it in their impudent muzzles. But ���� was from the youth the talented diplomat, he has managed to prevent possible fight.
The actor''s rate in LGITMIKe was typed by the decrepit teacher from an old age. Its young assistant has been fascinated by Boris and has told, that on the third round Boris needs to prepare nothing, that supposedly it � already the student. And generally acting to study� Institute punished to prepare what or a scenic etude. Assistants on the third round were not � was ill, and Boris could not represent authentically etude � fishing � never on fishing was. The blind vegetable � the chief of a rate, has not taken Boris in the pupils.
I in Moscow was not, I stayed with mother in Siberia. Has called Boris to Leningrad, has learnt about a foolish situation at examinations, and has advised to Boris to enter the institute cultures not to ring out in army.
After half a year I after sleepless night have gone to the doctor, at me hands shivered, and I have received clearing of employment for a week. We with Borka have jerked to Moscow, for a month. In ����� I had a familiar actress, Kira Nikolaevna Golovko. At first she has listened to Boris, then for the sake of it the teachers, planning to type a rate in the current year have gathered. To Boris have given the task for examinations to prepare �Chatsky''s monologue�.
I have pulled Sergey Jursky, have enquired at it as with it worked over Chatsky G. A''s role. Tovstonogov.
Half a year I worked with Boris, learnt to its elements of actor''s skill. Attended in an assembly hall in the evenings, sometimes all night long. Sometimes I accurately saw, that ���� wishes to sleep, that he any more does not hear me and does not understand. But I continued a lesson because itself was the taking a great interest person.
Once I have approached to the teacher on scenic speech and have asked to explain it to me: what is � verbal action? The teacher has smiled and has told, that if I have such questions it means that I grow as the director.
For other day I have suddenly opened for myself magic laws of verbal action. And my employment with Boris yielded surprising results.
I those years "have opened" for myself Sergey Yesenin''s creativity, and tried to carry away Yesenin''s verses and the pupil first in my creative biography. I cried, when listened to verses in performance Bori ShCherbakova. That is why in ����� after years there was a performance from yesenin�s verses in direction and Boris ShCherbakova''s actor''s performance.
Sometimes instead of lessons of actor''s skill we with Boris purchased some bottles of dry wine, shouted together with the tape recorder of a song of Vysotsky or walked on night Peter. Very much liked to roll on flower lawns!
Before entrance examinations in MHAT Boris has departed to Moscow. Couple of days later I met him at Peter''s airport, Borja have shown me the inquiry that it is the student of school-studio MHATa.
Boris ShCherbakov assures trustful public of the interviews, that it supposedly was late for examinations that rushed into an audience and shouted: �Has fallen Massalish! I wish to study at you!�
Actually the chief of the future rate Massalsky and the selection committee with its full complement for the sake of Boris ShCherbakova''s listening gathered prior to the beginning of entrance examinations for actor''s faculty. At examination members of the commission have listened Chatsky''s to monologue, and have asked to read still something. Boris has read Konstantin Simonov''s poem, on how to the blind beggar instead of bread have put in the stretched hand a stone. Excited Boris''s by actor''s talent, the commission amicably, with obvious pleasure, has wet eyes �
It is received, Boris ShCherbakova have taken in students for its exclusive talent and scenic charm. I rejoice, that in happened there was also my merit.
After half a year I already worked in children''s edition of Leningrad TV, passed there degree practice, did interesting statements for kids. From Moscow on a vacation the student-first-year student of school-studio of MHAT Boris ShCherbakov has arrived. In one of my transfers he read Victor Dragunskogo''s story. Editors and operators have been amazed by screen charm Borisa which has been presented televiewers as the professional actor.
On rehearsals I had to struggle with natural laziness ���������. Sometimes he asked: �You me force, and that to me a reluctance �� Other qualities of character promoted development of creative talent of the future well-known actor. Persistence, purposefulness, working capacity, improbable personal charm �
In one of telecasts Boris ShCherbakov, not naming my name, has mentioned me, the truth, was stipulated, that acquaintance to me was for it ����������. It was a question of how Boris has got to mass meeting on a scene "Big Drama Theatre" in Leningrad.
I knew in advance, that ���� will by all means become famous, that will receive a rank of the national actor. My wishes and predictions have come true.
When I left Leningrad for work in a province, I have written to Boris the letter that we will meet once in ten years. We adhere to this tradition till now.
Well, the pupil has surpassed the teacher. And should be! I always loved Boris, considered as its best friend. He too loved me. But we never spoke about the feelings, we, probably, hesitated of the feelings. However, one another we always named: �Borenjka� �
At Bori the sense of humor has been developed. �In Moscow there is a metro station �The Shcherbakovsky!�- it was praised. It sometimes� teased me "original" words �. I, by a youth then took offence.
"Nodding acquaintance" first too has offended me. But then I have decided, that it not a hint on my creative �bad luck�, and next �joke� my friend.
Boris! I am grateful to you for the fact that you are in my life. You my friend! Dear, favorite and unique! I know your phone number, I can call at any moment to you if your help suddenly is required to me. But, as your teacher first in art, I advised to you to solve all your problems. By the way, and ten years has not passed from the moment of our last meeting!
