But still I do not start with a movie and a theater. Mironov and Mashkov studied together at the Moscow Art Theatre School, then went to work with the theater Oleg Tabakov, the famous "snuffbox." And Mironov as an actor and as an actor Mashkov first, and then as a director. The first two big roles Mironov theater were performances Mashkov "Finest hour local time" (1992) and became a classic, the play "The Passion of Bumbarash" (1993) Later, Eugene has played in one more play Mashkov - & quot; № 13 & quot; (2001) on the stage of Moscow Art Theatre. Chekhov. But they had a chance to play together in the performance of Oleg Tabakov "Matrosskaya Tishina" (1988) and Valery Fokin "Jokes" (1996)



But back to the movie
Despite the very close friendship in the lives of the actors in the movie, they often play opponents or even enemies. And their first collaboration initiated this kinoprotivostoyaniyu. Their first joint film was Short Vladimir Ufimtseva "Beast jubilant" (1989) After this film, Vladimir Ufimtseva took only one more film as a director. So in the history of cinema, perhaps, he will go by the fact that for the first time joined the two actors on the silver screen. Mironov in the film - a romantic 'nerd' and Mashkov - a cruel "Gopnik", according to the director - the man and the beast



The following year they released their first full-length film with Mironov and Mashkov starring - "Happy times" Andrew Malyukova (1990) This is a tough film that reveals the general public to be a true Soviet soldier. The film openly and brutally revealed the problem of hazing in the army as "old-timers" break "greenhorns" who in turn will do the same with the young as "grandfathers" will go to the demobilization. Here Mashkov and Mironov again "on all sides." Mashkov - a cruel "grandfather", which is struggling to break the independent rookie Mironov. Ends all dramatic



Four years later, Mironov and Mashkov met on the set of the film debut Denis Evstigneev "Limit" (1995). In this film, the only time they play a real friend. As in life, they are friends of the Institute and engaged in the same profession. With only one difference: one of them at the end of the film kill



Four years later, the same general Denis Evstigneev made heroes of brothers in the film "Mother" (1999). True friends while they are only at the end of the film. The partners of the actors there began Nona Mordjukova, Oleg Menshikov and Aleksey Kravchenko



Continuing the tradition, four years later comes the film "Idiot". In this film plays a Prince Myshkin Mironov and Mashkov - merchant Rogozhin. In Dostoevsky there is no simple relationship between the characters. The "idiot" relationship between the characters and Mironov and Mashkov relations are very complicated, they are neither friends nor enemies. In terms of acting craft - it is the most powerful of their joint work in the movie



In the last before the release of the film "Ashes" their joint film by Andrei Kovuna "Piranha" (2006) the first time they switched places - he became a hero Mashkov, and Mironov - a cruel villain. Perky gunman was a hit, and this audience favorite



It remains to add that on October 28, on the channel "Russia" starts a new serial film with Mironov and Mashkov "Ashes", where this time their heroes are changing lives. And judging by the trailers and photos, he will be the same quality and memorable, as well as other joint work of these actors
