Talgat Nigmatulin - biography, date of birth, place of birth, filmography, clips.
Born on March 5, 1949 in the mining town of Kyzyl-Kie (Osh region of the Kirghiz SSR) in the family of his father, a Tatar and an Uzbek mother. Talgat's father was a miner. He died tragically when the boy was not even two years old. The family lived in poverty. Talgat started earning money as a teenager - he worked at a sugar factory, in a shoemaker. The mother, the director of the local school, found it difficult to pull two sons alone. Talgat was assigned to an orphanage.
As a person, Talgat Nigmatulin was formed under the influence of his talent, an irresistible thirst for creativity. As a boy, he wrote poetry, went to a drama club, was engaged in ballroom dancing, then became interested in the athletics section, became interested in wrestling. His biggest dream was to become a film director. After leaving school, he went to Moscow to enroll in VGIK. But in VGIK Nigmatulin was not immediately accepted. After the first failure, Talgat did not want to leave Moscow and entered the School of Circus and Variety Arts, where he was willingly taken. While studying at the circus school, Talgat became seriously interested in wrestling. He became the champion of Uzbekistan, holder of a black belt, took the honorable sixth place in the USSR championship. Then he already possessed a colorful appearance and undoubted talent. Soon he was noticed at Mosfilm, offering in 1967 the role of a White Guard officer in the film The Ballad of the Commissar. Film director Alisher Khamdamov recalls: “This first role played a cruel joke on him. The image of a young bastard in black lacquered gloves was so successful for Talgat that later he was assigned the role of an actor playing villains. And all his life he dreamed of something else ... ”
The first serious love overtook the Talgat Institute. His chosen one was a young student of VGIK, now Honored Artist of Ukraine, Irina Shevchuk. Here is what the actress herself recalls about this novel in one of her interviews: “... We had a great long romance - almost two years inseparably, and then ... we met and parted. He was more experienced than me, and I was probably too little. I had everything only in dreams, in books. They finally dispersed even before graduation. It was a hard experience for me ... ”
After graduating from VGIK in 1971 (workshop of SA Gerasimov and TF Makarova), Talgat came to Tashkent and began to work at the Uzbekfilm studio. Then his roles appeared in the films "The Seventh Bullet", "Meetings and Parting", "The Legend of Siyavush". The actor spent all his free time at home and wrote. Some of Nigmatulin's stories were published in Tashkent, and even the first book of prose was being prepared for publication. The screenwriter Odelsha Agishev, having read some things, advised Talgat to enter the Higher scriptwriting courses. That year, the course was recruited by the legendary Vytautas Zhalakevichus. “I owe a lot to this wonderful director both in life and in work,” Talgat Nigmatulin will say in an interview later. In 1978 he graduated from the screenwriting department of the VKSR at the USSR State Film Agency. In the 1970s, Talgat Nigmatulin, already a master of sports in judo, in Kyrgyzstan met the master of gong fu, Esen Ismailov, with whom he then studied at the "Tiger-Dragon" School for a year and eight months. What the actor subsequently demonstrated in the films is this particular School
In Tashkent, Talgat marries singer Larisa Kandalova. Soon a daughter, Ursula, was born to their family. Larisa recalls: “I was captivated by his attentiveness and ability to be friends. But the family man did not work out of him. We lived together for only a year. I perceived Talgat's amorousness and hobbies for other women as a betrayal. In the end, I took the child and left him. At that moment he was absolutely unprepared for family life. " If the first roles of Talgat Nigmatullin were small and insignificant, then gradually, thanks to the talent and friendship with Nikolai Eremenko, good roles began to appear. Talgat Nigmatulin starred in four dozen films, but I remember, as often happens, one by one - "Pirates of the XX century". Talgat and his friend Nikolai Eremenko were invited to the filming of the first Soviet action movie based on a script by Stanislav Govorukhin, directed by Boris Durov. The actors got down to business so recklessly that they even refused the help of understudies and stuntmen. But, all the inconveniences associated with shooting the film were offset by the deafening success of the film. There were constant queues at the screenings of the film, many went to the film several times. Until now, this film holds the attendance record. Then there were roles in other films. This is outwardly restrained, reserved Nazar in the "Provincial Romance", an experienced and quirky captain of the schooner in the movie "The Right to Shoot", Injun Joe in "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer", Samat in the film "Wolf's Pit" - a man who made a lot of confusion in his life and life of people close to him, but finding the strength to break out of the "wolf pit" of criminals. These images testify: Nigmatulin is an actor of a wide performing range. In each, even a small role, he sought to find the motives behind the actions of his hero, to make the image convincing and voluminous. Khalida Khasanova, his second wife, loved Talgat so much that she could endure his difficult character. This unofficial marriage lasted seven years and became the longest in Nigmatulin's life. On October 21, 1980, their son Said was born. Many people knew Talgat as a benevolent, open, companionable person. He had no enemies. Son Said graduated from VGIK, like his father, he became an actor. Today he teaches scenic movement, horse riding and fencing at VGIK. Everything that his father once brilliantly demonstrated on the screen. On the set of the film "Provincial Romance", where Talgat Nigmatulin played the main role, his partner on the set was a girl named Venera Ibragimova. She became Talgat's last true love. When Venus was filming the next film, Talgat came to her in an old Moskvich, which was literally littered with flowers, and took her to the registry office. So she became Nigmatulina. It was an acting family by all standards. They occasionally saw each other in between filming, lived modestly, but happily. In this marriage, on May 14, 1983, a daughter was born, who by mutual agreement was named Linda. That was the name of the wife of Bruce Lee, before whom Talgat worshiped. And his wife Venus was an ardent fan of the star couple Paul and Linda McCartney. Today Linda Nigmatulina lives in Moscow, acts in films and sings a lot. And her mother Venus remained to live in Kazakhstan. There she is a star of the first magnitude: she acts in films, performs on the stage. The fate of this talented actor was tragic. Talgat Nigmatulin died in Vilnius on February 11, 1985 at the age of 36. Carried away by oriental philosophy, he joined a sect led by criminals. His godbrothers killed him during a trip to Vilnius.
This happened under the following circumstances. Talgat is not limited only to filming and karate, he writes poetry, prose, and directs films. One more hobby also appears - knowing oneself. In the early 1980s, countless healers, healers, psychics, and other charlatans emerged. The sect led by the swindler Abai Borubaev and the village idiot Murza Kymbatbaev gained great popularity among students and some of the intelligentsia. New pilgrims from all over the Union came to them in a distant Kyrgyz village, they wrote about them in newspapers, some scholars even examined their talent in their books. Talgat Nigmatulin was among the admirers of the "talent" of home-grown gurus. For the famous actor, as for many others, they were spiritual mentors. Obviously, Talgat's inherent desire for the unknown led him to them. In 1981, Talgat found money for his directorial debut - a ten-minute film "Echo", in which he shot Mirza and Abai. The film was coldly received by both friends and superiors. In early February 1985, a split occurred in the "school" of Mirza and Abai: several students from Vilnius decided to found their own sect. To clarify the situation, Abai himself went to the scene. He decided to invite Nigmatulin to him so that he "dealt" with the recalcitrant. Talgat in those days was going to leave for Chisinau, to complete the film "The Life and Immortality of Sergei Lazo", and at the same time to show his short film about Abai and Mirza. But he postponed the trip for several days and came to Vilnius. As it turned out, to his own destruction. Talgat tried to somehow calm down his heated comrades, but they did not listen to him. Moreover, they began to call him a traitor. During a visit to the apartment of one of the "schismatics" of the sect, Abai and his students started a fight in the house. Nigmatulin was the only one who did not beat the owner of the house, and then he left there altogether. This was the last straw that overflowed the cup of Abai's patience, who had long envied Nigmatulin's fame. When the sectarians returned to the apartment on Lenin Street, Talgat was already there. Then Abai transferred all his anger to him. So on the night of February 10-11, 1985, in the center of Vilnius, in house number 49 on Lenin Street, in the apartment of the artist Andrius, five healers with particular cruelty beat and kicked the unresisting karate champion, beat him until No death on Monday 11 February from "fatal damage to internal organs." When help arrived, it was too late. Talgat was found in the bathroom. 119 injuries were found on the actor's body. The court sentenced Abay Borubaev to 15 years, Mirza Kymbatbaev to 12 years, and the rest of the participants in the crime to various terms of imprisonment. Why did a man, capable of neutralizing the hardest enemy himself with one blow, tolerate meekly, did not make a sound and let himself be killed? This still remains a mystery. Since the actor's body was badly mutilated, his wife Venus, contrary to Muslim laws, decided to cremate. The cremation procedure was carried out in Kaunas. Talgat's ashes were buried in Tashkent at the Chilonzor Ota cemetery. In 2001, the street in Kyzyl-Kiya, where the actor was born, was renamed Talgat Nigmatulina street. After the tragic death of the artist, his name was forgotten for many years. A month after his death, great changes began in the country, perestroika, then the disintegration of the country in which Talgat had lived for so long, hard times began, but the actor was not destined to find out. Only in recent years have they begun to remember him. Director Nikolai Popkov, a friend of Talgat, took on the production of a feature film about the tragic fate of the film actor and athlete Talgat Nigmatulin, who also wrote the script for the film. The script is based on real events of the mid-1980s. In the film, tentatively titled "Talgat and the Vine" (at the box office "An angel has come to you") - the main character, a serious and noble man, falls under the influence of a power-hungry sectarian guru and dies as a result of his tragic delusion. The role of Talgat was played by the actor of the Roman Viktyuk Theater, Farhat Makhmudov, and the main character was the young Moscow actress Yevgenia Loza.
Documentary films and television programs are also dedicated to the memory of the actor. - "Man and the law: in memory of Talgat Nigmatulin" (1986). - "How idols left. Talgat Nigmatulin" (director Dmitry Kuzharov, producer Victor Grigorenko, Daryal-TV channel, 2006). - "Pirates of the XX century.
