Georgy Zhzhenov literally broke into the Soviet cinema of the early 1960s, immediately captivating a wide audience with his unique acting and human charm. Then many wondered: where did this mature master suddenly come from, who knew how to create vivid images even in supporting roles (remember the traffic inspector in the movie "Beware of the Car"). What can we say about his main roles - the Resident in the famous cinematic tetralogy, Willie Clark in the three-episode TV movie "All the King's Men", General Bessonov in "Hot Snow"! .. Meanwhile, the actor began acting in films back in the 1930s (he managed to play and in the legendary "Chapaev" by the Vasiliev brothers), after which he disappeared from the field of spectator attention for a long seventeen years ... During these years, Georgy Zhzhenov had to take a sip of dashing, go through prisons, camps, exile. He recalls this in his book "The Lived", full of simplicity, high truth, human dignity.
