Filmed in 1961 on the screens and immediately embraced the leaders of the Soviet film distribution, the film "Striped flight", filmed by the director Vladimir Fetin, and after decades it remains hot to the favorite spectators. As always happens in the working process, without entertaining episodes and all sorts of curiosities at the site does not cost.
About how they were filmed by film, and about interesting facts related to the picture - in the material 24cm.
High disposal
It is believed that the film "Striped Flight" film is considered to be their own appearance on the screens in the 1959th Ethiopian Emperor who visited the CPSU Central Committee Secretary General, which in those years was Nikita Khrushchev, Moscow Circus. Special admiration and guest, and the Soviet leader caused a number with tigers, which demonstrated on the arena Margarita Nazarova, famously commanded with his pets.When the trainer at the personal invitation of Khrushchev came to a government lie, bringing a little tigrite with him, the Secretary General noticed that there was a significant lack of disperfection in domestic cinema - a single film was not filmed about a heroic woman. Soon the film studio was driving, engaged in search of a suitable scenario.
The truth of life
The painting was based on a story rather famous in the literary circles of the former Sailor Victor, written on the basis of the events that took place in its nautical life.
Once the crew, with whom then the bottom went, was commissioned to deliver three of three bear for the Murmansk circus. And one of the closures managed to get out of the cell - the ship's team had to use fire hoses to return fill on the laid place. True, cinematographers who shot the film "Striped flight" decided to replace the bears on more exotic tigers and add romance to revive and diversify what was happening on the screen.
Trusted trust
They say that Alexey Smirnov, who performed in the picture the role of the Vali Vali Knysh, showed a fair initiative in working with tigers. So, for example, the artist worked for one of the striped actors for a month, seeking confidence relations with a predator. It took it to ensure that the Circus Beast allowed Smirnov in the same stage to pull himself behind the tail without unnecessary risk for Alexei Makarovich himself.Regnant stars screen
As long as the episode was filmed, in which the "group in striped swimsuits" floats beautifully to the shore, the operators suffered. Yes, and fear suffered. The case is as follows: Cinematographers took a cage with tigers in the sea with the help of a boat, hoping that animals, only the doors of their "prison" open, immediately rushed to the land.
However, among the shaggy wards there was one "polysya", which preferred an unreliable water procedure, but the dry iron "islet". The beast just climbed into the roof of the cell, where at that moment operators are located. The latter in a panic themselves jumped into the water. And the next time a couple of tigers sail to the side of the shore decided to return back and climbed onto the boat - the cinematographers were hiding who where. Who in the cabins are locked. Who climbed on the mast ...
High relationships
In the role of a hooligan monkey in a vest, "visited the shore" on the ship, took off the chimpanzee with a suitable screen image of a pirate. The woolly actor was found in the zoo of the city of Kiev. However, cinematographers have problems. Pirate flatly refused to demonstrate its own acting skills, if there was no friend to his girlfriend named Chilit.So I had to make the creators of the picture to led to the shooting platform for the beloved and the "lam of the heart" of the newly illuminated artist, and at the same time treat her marshmallows, which chimpanzee absorbed, calmly observing the adaptation game.
Popatka
The scene with the yield of animals from the water to the shore presented a unpleasant surprise to cinematographers. One tigress jumped over the fence, put up straight on the beach, and rushed to the Zewak accumulated around the set.
Fortunately, not confused by the lady-illuminator, grabbing the tarp mittens triggered at hand, drove the improvised weapon directly on the nose in a curious animal. From such an impudence of the tigress, he was spent hastily retraced, into a fenced perimeter.
Under one condition
They say that Vladimir Fetin, for whom the film "Striped Flight" has become the first full-length picture, speaking at the preliminary meeting of the film crew, a lot has fun at the meeting participants. The director, completing the appeal to the listeners, promised that the gathered cinematographers would try to remove an interesting and fun film. True, only if they remain alive - the "actors" were painful.
