Facts about "office romances"
I suggest you read below are some interesting facts about the movie "Office Romance", which was released on the big screen 36 years ago.
"Office Romance" is based on the play "Colleagues," written by Eldar Ryazanov and Emil Braginsky in just one month. The script for the film, too, was the result of their joint creativity.
The actors for this film creep up very quickly, because Ryazanov were valuable "reserves" after a screen test in the previous films: Svetlana Nemolyaeva auditioned for the role of Nadia in the film "Irony of Fate, or Enjoy Your Bath!", There were also among the contenders for the role Oleg Basilashvili and Alisa Freundlich. With the "Irony of Fate" is also related to the appearance in "office romances" Andrew and Leah Myagkova Akhedzhakova.
According to Ryazanov, Andrew Myagkova specially nalepili such mustache and glasses in the rough frame to the beginning of the film he was producing as much as possible impression of "clerical rats' lack of initiative nedotёpy. It should be noted that it was not easy to achieve, as two years ago, the actor fell in love with the whole country as a lyrical romance Zhenya Lukashin of "Twist of Fate", but the director struggled as far as possible its current lead character from the previous.
On the role of the director Kalugin immediately identified Freundlich. Fortunately, this is one of the few cases in domestic film, when Ryazanov without screen tests and approvals by hudsovet allowed to shoot the actors what he wanted. To create a believable image of the headmaster, mymry, director and actress have been searching for the right clothes. In the most remote corners of the costume "Mosfilm" They picked shapeless incomprehensible color and size skirts and jackets. Still, to complete the image was missing some parts. As usual, helped the case. Operator paintings Vladimir Nakhabtsev brought just in case the old points of his father. And when Alice Brunovna their allotment, it became clear - "mymra" is ready to appear on the site.
Oleg Basilashvili seen only in a role Novoseltseva, and tried to prove it Eldar. A character with a speaking name Samohvalov actor did not really like, but in the process, he admitted that Ryazanov right to distribute the roles.
By the way, filming Basilashvili had to drive, and he never had not sat behind the wheel! The actor took the instructor, but a full course of the future motorist he did not have time. As a result, once Basilashvili almost broke the camera, and the other - entered the kiosk "Sojuzpechat." Actor understood that the fee he had not seen ... but did not punish him. And in addition to the fee, he got even with colleagues and the State Prize of the USSR!
Initially secretary Vera was presented as a married woman, whose husband was played by actor Alexander Fatyushin. His hero is constantly tossed between his wife and a motorcycle, which is why the couple quarreled. Even managed to shoot a few scenes and Fatyushin Akhedzhakova, but the actor fell ill. Therefore Verochka had to swear with her husband only on the phone. By the way, sounded "the voice in the tube" Oleg Basilashvili.
Incidentally, in the play Faith was young leggy beauty. But when Ryazanov and Braginsky wrote the script for the movie, then they changed by Vera Akhedzhakova. And since it looks very different from the long-legged beauties, her character got from the secretary of the play only what she reputed fashionista. Thanks to what we have seen unparalleled Leah Akhedzhakova as a trendsetter and mymry mentor in matters of women's flirting.
In connection with the actor's many impromptu during the filming, the material filmed a lot more than was included in the final version (nearly three series instead of two).
According to Eldar Ryazanov, the scene "a romantic feast" Kalugin Novoseltseva in her home - an exceptional improvisation of the two actors played at the highest level of acting. You can imagine how weak heart sank half of moviegoers when watching this incredibly lyrical and sensual scene.
Also brilliant improvisation scene was unmatched treatment Novoseltseva with "rationalization proposal" to Kalugin at the ceremony at the Samohvalova.
Actress Lyudmila Ivanova, who played a very convincing activist Shura indeed in those years was the chairman of the local committee in the theater "Sovremennik».
With the reduction and adaptation of material from the film was cut scene in which Shura, after the appearance of the "revived" Bublikov, rushing through the corridors of the statistical office, shouting: "I am not guilty! He died namesake and call us! ", And it comes with angry fists Bublikov. Finally, Shura up the courage, goes to meet him, and cried: "Long live Comrade Bublikov alive!" - And everyone applauded. Bagels in amazement says: "Comrades, thank you for everything»
The action of "Office Romance" takes place almost all the time in the same building of the statistical agency. At the entrance to the Office hanging signs with the names of various organizations, including the mysterious "Institute in", but three parts of the building are actually filmed in different locations in Moscow.
In order not to make the film in the drama, the action of exclusively indoors, Eldar Ryazanov decided to "dilute" the scene inside buildings kinds bustling pedestrians and cars in Moscow, as well as its beautiful scenery.
The filmmakers deliberately "settled" the characters at different locations in and around Moscow, to trace the route of each of the home to work, and to emphasize their social status: Ludmila Kalugin - in the "elite" house on B.Nikitskoy Yuri Samohvalova - on Gorky Street (currently Tver), the house next door to the Central Telegraph in Moscow. Ordinary employees "placed" in residential areas: Novoseltseva - in Chernyshevsky Lane, secretary Vera - Chertanovskaya on the street, and Ryzhov - in Moscow, the Yaroslavl direction.
Romantic heroine Svetlana Nemolyaeva Olga Ryzhov read poems Bella Akhmadulina "My shy hero, you cleverly avoided the shame." They never published, so the actress a few years after the picture has been forced to re-write them by hand and send their fans. By the way, the story of the heroine Svetlana Nemolyaeva letters were taken by the authors of the film of the life of fellow filmmakers, but the names of prototypes for obvious reasons, has not yet been called.
Another interesting point: the bronze horse, which carries Novosel, was previously involved in a film directed by Leonid Gaidai "Diamond Hand", he also featured in an episode of the television movie "Seventeen Moments of Spring" in the movie "Formula of Love" and "Old New Year" . Later, the same horse will appear in the film Vladimir Menshov "Shirley Myrli" removed after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
The words of the music business card of the film - the song "There is no bad weather," were written by Ryazanov (according to him, in case he went through a lot of options poems of famous poets, but did not find), but he gave them a film composer Andrei Petrov under the guise of a poem by the English poet William Blake, not to embarrass him. That "fraud" does not feel, but after he learned the true authorship of many famous poems, famous poets, when Ryazanov proposed further cooperation, seemed to him the verses of Ryazanov. The following year, the song became the winner of the Festival of Song-78.
The duo Alice Freundlich and Andrew Myagkova was so successful that in 1978 they named best actor of the year. What we congratulate them! And, of course, I want to express my gratitude to all the creators of the brilliant picture, which pleases the Soviet, and later Russian audiences for 36 years!
