Excessive thinness, protruding cheekbones, a large hooked nose - a ready-made type of negative characters - from Hitler's officers to evil wizards. Unfortunately, Valentins Skulme with his characteristic appearance was held hostage to roles of a certain role, at least in the cinema.
Valentins Skulme (Pavils) - Latvian, Soviet film actor. Born into a Latvian family - Dailes Karlis and a German woman - Lucia Juppe. At the age of twelve, having lost his mother (his father died six years earlier), he was taken under the care of his father's relatives - the Skulme brothers. Otis and Uga often took the boy to work with them, and they served as decorators at the Dailes Theater. In the same Dailes theater, to which Valentins Skulme will be faithful throughout his acting career.
After returning from German captivity, where Skulme ended up during the Great Patriotic War, he graduated from the acting studio of the Moscow Art Theater (1949). On the stage of the Riga State Art Theater he played many roles - Prince Myshkin (Idiot), King Richard III (Richard III), playwright Verbel (Shakespeare is urgently wanted).
Film career began with an episode in the film The Return with Victory (1947), the first big work can be considered the role of the captain of the German football team Johan Dietrich in the film The Third Half (1962). The film with Valentins Skulme Theater (1978) became the most famous work of the actor. The English Lord Charles Tammerli in his performance is an impeccably revealed image, perhaps because many features of his hero - refinement, aristocracy, intelligence - Skulme copied from himself.
Young viewers of the 70s-80s of the last century remember the roles of Valentins Skulme very well - this is the Counselor in the musical fairy tale Adventures in a City That Does Not Exist (1974), and Baron Ulrich von Steinberg in the film A Tale Told at Night (1981), and the Minister in the musical tale Boy-with-Finger (1985).
