Parents hoped that the Son would follow in the footsteps of the Father and will continue the family's case. But the business of the business worried a little boy: still in the gymnasium I am interested in theatrical art, and he decided to become an actor. At about this time, the young man, being aged about 15 years, changes the name and becomes Alexey Kapler. For the first time, he went to theatrical stage of his own little theater called "Harlequin".
Creation
At the beginning of the creative path, Alexey struck himself in various hypostatas. After graduating from the gymnasium, the future director and the screenwriter settled to play Kiev pop theater. He also consisted in the creative company "Chipistan", and in the youth was known among the comrades as "Lucy Kapler".
One day, Alexey with friends realized that provincial Kiev was not suitable for them, the time was the time of new heights. So the scarlet went to Petrograd, where the "Eccentric actor factory" appears.
The usual examples of art gradually went off the ship of modernity, and the new person traditional productions were no longer interesting. Therefore, the Kiev team of ambitious young men came by the way. The work of Gogol "Marriage", which was previously made seriously, turned into a carnival with pop numbers and tricks.
On the account of Alexey, several roles in the cinema, but in the speed of the young man disappointed in the acting craft. He wanted to speak his word, not to set out other people's thoughts. At the age of 23, Alexey moved to Odessa, and later became an assistant A. P. Dovzhenko in the film "Arsenal". He did not want to stay in the assistants, but then the guy was comprehended by the first disappointment: his settings were banned.
He did not stop and won the competition for the best scenario for the film under the working title "Lenin in October". I liked the picture Stalin, which is not surprising, because it is there - the closest comrade and the associate of Vladimir Ilyich, with whom he discusses every step.
Since 1939, the Kapler taught in VGIK, and during the Great Patriotic War, he worked as a military correspondent. After returning from the links, Alexei - Mikhail Romm, who received the fees for joint movies, handed him a good amount of money at that time. This allowed the director to start a secure life.
At one time, the scarlet was led by the workshop in Vgik, and at the first meeting of the Union of Cinematographers of the USSR, he was chosen by the Secretary of the Board. At the age of 63, the dropper was invited to the TV presenter to the "Kinopanoram" transfer, which a man led about 6 years, while the program was lighted. Alive and witty Alexey radically differed from other leaders, he refused to read on a piece of paper and make a serious face.
Personal life
The personal life of the artist is distinguished by the unspecified saturation. The first official marriage man issued with Tatyana Tarnowskaya, actress of Soviet cinema. Their marriage for whom the dropper had to be baptized, lasted a little over 8 years. In addition to the son of Anatoly from this union, the scaple had no children anymore.
After the divorce, Alexey lived in actual marriage with the Writer and the doctor Tatiana Zlatogorova. After parting with her, later coited with actress Galina Sergeyeva.
The turning point in the life of the artist was acquainted with Svetlana Allyluve - daughter Joseph Stalin. At the time of the meeting at the party on the occasion of the celebration of the anniversary of the October Revolution, the dropper was about 40 years old, and the girl was 16.
The man invited Svetlana to the dance, making several gallant compliments. And then I felt that his heart melts. From that day, the famous director, the writer and the screenwriter could not think about any other girl, except for a modest girl. Caring for the daughter of Stalin was not easy: Allyluweva went out into the street only accompanied by guards, but the man did not retreat.
The scarlet drove the girl on cultural events, showed the masterpieces of world cinema. Meetings were chawed, but Stalin still reported. The director went to the surrounded Stalingrad and wrote from there reports, in the texts of which straight hints were glad to Roman with Svetlana.
In loved, I had to part: they said goodbye, closely pressing and barely breathe, and from the next room did not reduce the eye accompanying. On the eve, Alexey called and persistently recommended to go to the front for collecting information to a preparing movie. But a man blinded by love answered with a sharp refusal. The next day, the dropper was arrested for anti-Soviet campaign, sentenced to 5 years and sent to Vorkuta. A man got a job photographer, since he was allowed to leave the territory, fenced barbed wire.
Here he met the actress Valentina Tokarskaya, who knew how to sing wonderfully and dance. Despite the conclusion, the woman felt quite comfortable, and her love for life and the charm conquered a scope.

The man wanted to go to Kiev and meet with his parents, but, barely entering the train, was arrested and again received a period.
This time Alexey was sent to the village of Inta, where there were no more concerns. The director on a par with the rest worked in the mine.

Returning to Moscow, the couple signed up, and life began to gradually improve. But here Svetlana Allyluweva appeared on the horizon, which by that time had been married twice. The woman admitted that he thought only about him, but the scarlet responded with refusal.
The nobility did not hold the scope near Valentina. In 1954, a man met a married poetess Yulia Drunina, when she entered the screamers' courses, where the Kapler taught. A woman of 6 years resisted by the overwhelming feelings, trying to preserve the Union with Nikolai Stashinov: Elena's daughter grew.
