Each has its own isolation. Someone got stuck in Bali, someone climbed away into the wilderness, someone does not leave the city apartment. And here Director Alexey Uchitel (“Walk”, “Land”, “Diary of his wife”) is completing work on a new painting – “47”, dedicated to the journey of Victor’s tomb Tsoi to the northern capital after deadly Accident in 1990.
In a conversation with the writer Alexander Tsypkin, based on the works of which the series is already being shot, the director remembered how he convinced Tsoi to star in his film and why
ABOUT THIS
“When we shot“ Rock ”in 1986, none of that company knew me – neither Grebenshchikov nor Garkusha. Who knows who I am? The KGB or something else. AND [чтобы наладить контакт] I chose the most silent – Tsoi. And he said: “Listen, Victor, let me come with an operator, a camera to your boiler room, and we will sit with you for a shift – and he was on duty for two days – and we’ll shoot. Not a single question, I swear, I will. As it is, it is. Then you come – take a look. If you don’t like it, we’ll disperse. ” And these were the first frames of the stoker, which now often show. I saw a lot of things: different people came and drank, but I honestly restrained myself – I didn’t move anything, I didn’t say “come here”. Perhaps that’s why it turned out to make a film. And then they came to my native Leningrad documentary studio in the director’s room with the whole Kino group – they watched in silence, went out in silence. I think: Christmas trees, sticks, what is there? I say: “Vit, tell me! Did you like it or not? ” And in response there was one word: “Normal.” This word gave me a sharp pass to life. After that, no one asked who I am and what they eat me with. ”
Frame from the movie “Rock”
PRO NEW FILM
“When a terrible accident occurred (Viktor Tsoi crashed on August 15, 1990 after the collision of his Moskvich in the oncoming lane with the Ikarus bus, which was driven by Janis Fibigs, on the highway Sloka — Talsi – Aut.) From material that was not included in the Rock, we mounted the picture “The Last Hero”, then I met the driver of Ikarus, who was driving, and spoke with the investigator. Then it settled down with me. When you go and don’t know who Tsoi is … and then life changes abruptly (the driver was found not guilty, but nevertheless became known throughout the USSR – Aut.). The story of our picture “47” begins with an accident, and then begins the journey of the bus with Tsoi’s coffin in Petersburg. A kind of roadflies. The one who is driving does not know who all these people close to Choi are (Ricochet performed by Ilya Del, wife Natalya Reasons performed by Paulina Andreeva etc.), but they don’t know what kind of driver it is.
About 7-8 years ago, Sasha Gonorovsky (“The Land”, “From Five to Seven”) wrote the script, but we did not shoot. I thought that it was irrelevant, but interest in Tsoi is growing more and more every year. This is a mystery that no one will solve. With all due respect and Vysotskyand to Okudzhavaaccording to how often they sing, Choi overtook them. ”
In December, I starred in the full-length film Whaling. This is not horror)))), this is drama. I played the girl from the video chat Uuuf))) But I hasten to upset you, there were no naughty scenes.

ABOUT ASMUS
“At our Rock studio, we also shoot full-length debuts. One of my students Philip Yuriev seven years he wrote the script for the painting “Whalers”, which he then shot in Kamchatka. A stunning story will soon be shown at one of the major festivals, if it takes place. So, according to the plot, whalers are watching a computer showing a undressing girl [из секс-чата]. And this heroine was supposed to play Christina Asmus. She read the script, she liked it, agreed. Then the film “Text” comes out, this whole story takes place (after naked scenes with Ivan Yankovsky the actress’s husband, Harik Kharlamov, was sucked as a cuckold, in the end couple gets divorced and assures that the cinema has nothing to do with it – Auth.). And then an agent calls me and explains that Christina can’t act in our scene. I begged them to come to the studio, Asmus apologized for a long time that it would not work. Hoping for nothing, I turned on her 10 minutes of the film, she looked and said: “That’s it. Let’s. When to shoot? ” I asked again: “Are you not afraid that they will start rinsing again?” “This is my business,” she said firmly and starred wonderfully. I was amazed! ”

The unpopularity of the “turbodiesel” motorists associate with a weak “high-torque” and breakdowns.
The fourth generation Toyota RAV4 was produced from 2013 to 2019. The crossover has established itself as a reliable car and, in the footsteps of its predecessor, has become the best-selling in the class. In addition to gasoline engines, the Japanese assembled in small batches with a rarer diesel engine. Her work was criticized by the author of the popular YouTube channel Dizzlike Channel.
According to the surveyor, the Toyota RAV4 crossover with a 2.2-liter diesel engine rated at 150 “horses” not enough dynamics. So, the declared acceleration “to hundreds” is 10.0 seconds. Fuel economy compared to 2.0 and 2.5 liter gasoline engines is only 1 liter “per hundred,” but the 2.0-liter “brother” has a better acceleration of 9.4 seconds. This is confirmed by the owners of the “Japanese” on the theme site Drom.
Another characteristic “motor oil” is considered a motor problemwhich relates to design features. “From carriage to pumpkin,” the blogger criticizes.
In defense of the “turbodiesel”, an auto mechanic from another Auto Plus YouTube channel spoke out. He claims that the unit, although “weak,” and breakdowns occur, but still with timely oil changes and the use of high-quality fuel able to serve 400 thousand kilometers.
The specialist recommends paying more attention to the automatic 6-speed gearbox, which is combined with a diesel unit on the Toyota RAV4. Its declared resource is 150 thousand kilometers, but it is sharply reduced during “aggressive” driving. At the first “kicks” or jerks when shifting gears, it is recommended to immediately contact a service center.
Thus, criticism of the Ravchik is acceptable, but the experience of motorists is still different. In general, Toyota RAV4 IV owners are advised to conduct regular maintenance of power units. And for drivers who decide to purchase a diesel engine, a detailed car diagnosis should be made before buying.
