Russia’s first UFC belt holder and mixed martial arts veteran Oleg Tactarov in an interview with , he enjoyed the series “The Boy’s Word”. Blood on the asphalt.”
For a long time, 56-year-old Taktarov combined performances in MMA and filming, starting to play in the United States in 1995. In MMA, Taktarov’s statistics are 17 wins, 5 losses and 2 draws.
— How do you like the series?
— Zhora Kryzhovnikov is the second person from my city (Sarov, Nizhny Novgorod region – ) to do very high-quality work in cinema. Although I remember him as Andrey [Першина], who lived in Silkina, 7 years old, is about 500 meters from my house. My teammate lived in his own house. Our region was not known for banditry, but the directors who make such films usually come from prosperous areas, because they do not relive the difficult times of childhood. I wouldn’t even talk about certain things and I wouldn’t want to go through that again. But he didn’t see it and that’s probably why he brought up such a subject. There is a good script here, and it is clear that the director has talent.
— The main subject of controversy: the series “The Boy’s Word.” Does blood on the asphalt have a bad influence on schoolchildren or not?
– This will of course affect the headless ones. Not for the right people, of course. As Vladimir Zhirinovsky said: “I watched how everyone played football and fought in the streets, but I studied myself, that’s why I am here, and most of They are no longer.” Here Kazan was taken as a base, it seems that some people who actually lived there were removed, but the same, if not worse, happened, for example, in Dzerzhinsk. It’s a town in the Nizhny Novgorod region, I was there during a training camp (220 km from Sarov. – ). Such a place: ammonia blows from the south, gasoline exhaust blows from the other side. It was a scary town in the 80s. And there, in every yard, you had to “run”. That is to say crowd versus crowd fights with other areas with facilities, fences. And to them, it was senseless and callous. In the show, they at least try to make money somehow, to do something, but here they don’t.
— I once asked you to compare “Brigade” and “Gangster Petersburg 2: Lawyer” and you ranked “Gangster Petersburg” much higher. “The Boy’s Word” is also inferior?
– How can you compare? Lev Borisov was there, there was a whole story about merging companies with the mafia, and there people played what they themselves remembered. To be honest, the people who played “The Boy’s Word” were replaying what they had seen somewhere. For this reason, Hollywood is dying and screenplays are being written by the grandchildren of the screenwriters who created wonderful films. And the grandchildren already make bad movies. Because there is no material. Because you have to experience all this for it to affect you, you can take a diagram: here it is the main character, here it is a woman, here you have to rape her, here she is going to be avenged. It may work for a short time, but it will not go down in history,” Taktarov told .
