Савелий Крамаров

In the very first second of his appearance on the screen, Homeric laughter was heard in the hall. Comedies with his participation were watched ten times. The remarks of his heroes were repeated everywhere, dispersed into anecdotes and became sayings. What is worth only one, perhaps the most famous: "And silence ... And the dead with braids ...". Savely Kramarov was not just loved by us. They adored. A favorite of the public, a wonderful comedian, he was not, however, the darling of fate. On the contrary, she was ruthless towards him. The book by V. Strongin, who knew the artist closely, is about the life and fate of Savely Kramarov.
