Yuri Aizenshpis, Archil Gomiashvili, star of “White Sun of the Desert” Nikolai Godovikov... All these famous artists are experienced criminals. A main character pioneer drama “Dagger” generally built a “career” as a criminal authority. How long and for what were the heroes of our selection imprisoned?

Nikolay Godovikov

Godovikov was born into a family of simple Leningrad workers. He grew up as a talented but difficult child. The parents did not have enough time for their son, and from the age of three Godovikov went to a “five-day” kindergarten. As a result, the boy became independent early, which gave both positive and negative results. Nikolai learned poetry, practiced wrestling, and sang in the choir. But at the same time, the teenager had problems with discipline. Because of hooliganism, Godovikov was registered with the police. Nikolai dreamed of the stage, but his parents insisted that after the eighth grade he enter a physical and mechanical technical school. And yet the guy managed to achieve his goal: at the age of 15, he auditioned for Lenfilm and received several episodes in the film Republic of SHKID, and two years later he starred in White Sun of the Desert - and became famous.

But after filming, his film career stalled. Godovikov served, got a job as a laborer, got married and divorced, was seriously injured in a fight with a neighbor in a communal apartment, after which he was unable to work. As a result, Godovikov was sentenced to a year for parasitism. In 1980, he was imprisoned for another 4 years for theft.

After his release, Godovikov tried to act again and even began acting in the theater, but in 1991 he was again convicted of theft - to 2.5 years in a maximum security colony for repeat offenders.

Director Svetlana Stasenko took custody of the talented but unlucky guy. Vasily became famous after his roles in the drama “Bastards” and the TV series “Gromovs” and “Ranetki”. Lykshin managed to get married and become the father of the girl Kira. And on the night of October 18, 2009, the actor died of a heart attack.

Igor Petrenko

As a child, the future actor was a street bully and one day he went too far. In 1992, a minor Petrenko was arrested for participation in the murder. One of his friends was in debt a large sum and decided to deal with the “creditor” by calling his friends for help. The young man was shot dead, and a robbery was faked in his apartment. In 1997, the court sentenced Petrenko to 8 years probation. The verdict was influenced young age the accused positive reviews about him from the Shchepkinsky Theater School, where Petrenko had already studied, and also that the young artist was not a killer.

Sergey Shevkunenko

Sergei Shevkunenko's father was the director of the Second Creative Association "Mosfilm", and his mother was an assistant director. When the boy was four years old, his father died of cancer. Mom was left alone with two children. She worked a lot, and Sergei and early years was left to his own devices. He began to get into criminal stories. But he was not at all drawn to cinema. Everything was decided by chance: one day Sergei came to his mother’s work and caught the eye of one of the directors. Soon Sergei received the role of the heroic pioneer Mitya Polyakov in the Dirk trilogy. However, in life he still preferred the world of crime. At the age of 13, Shevkunenko was registered in the children's room of the police and had serious problems with alcohol, and at the age of 16 he received his first sentence - for beating with hooligan motives. After that, Sergei again and again went to jail for theft. By the age of 30, Shevkunenko, nicknamed Chief and Artist, became an authority and headed the Mosfilmovskaya organized crime group. Sergei died at the age of 35. The killer broke into his and his mother’s apartment and shot them both. The crime remained unsolved.

Eduard Izotov

Izotov’s acting career was interrupted by a tragic accident: in 1983, the artist and his wife were detained while exchanging currency - in Soviet time it was considered a criminal offense. Both spouses received three years in prison, which affected both the mental and physical condition of Izotov. After his release, the actor suffered five strokes over the course of several years, after which he began to forget the text and could not continue working in the theater. After his forced retirement, Izotov’s condition deteriorated sharply.

Yuri Aizenshpis

Famous producer in total spent 17 years behind bars. The 24-year-old graduate of the Moscow Institute of Economics and Statistics received his first sentence for storing currency and smuggling. In 1970, the young engineer was sentenced to 10 years. Aizenshpis served 7 years, was released on parole and almost immediately was convicted again for a new fraud with counterfeit dollars. True, Aizenshpis’s second term was more like a vacation in a kind of sanatorium. In the Mordovian colony, the producer managed an assembly shop of 300 people, earned good money and owned his own office.

Aizenshpis also faced a third term for “farming” with imported clothing. Yuri spent a year and a half in a pretrial detention center awaiting trial, but perestroika was already in full swing in the country, and they gave up on the “criminal.”

Having been freed, Aizenshpis began working with the groups “Cinema”, “Technology”, “Moral Code”, Linda and Vlad Stashevsky, and later with Katya Lel and Dima Bilan. Connections in the criminal world greatly helped the producer in the music business.

Yuri Aizenshpis died at the age of 60 from a myocardial infarction.

Saveliy Kramarov

In his youth, the future actor had a hobby - collecting ancient icons. True, Kramarov replenished his collection in a semi-legal way. Together with a friend, he traveled around the towns of the Golden Ring and exchanged icons for next to nothing. Over time, the actor accumulated an impressive collection of antiques at home, which he began to sell abroad piece by piece.

Kramarov wanted, rather, to simply get rid of the icons than to make money. Over the years, he began to take an interest in his roots: he became interested in Judaism, began visiting a synagogue, and doing yoga. Orthodox icons did not fit into the actor’s new lifestyle, but the desire to “sell” his collection almost cost Kramarov his freedom.

The actor and his partner were arrested and kept in a bullpen for several days. Connections helped the smugglers go free.

Later Kramarov emigrated to the USA, where he began his career from scratch. A few years after the move, Savely was diagnosed with rectal carcinoma. The actor “burned out” in a matter of weeks.

Georgy Yumatov

In the spring of 1994, a drunken actor shot a janitor who was helping him bury his dog with a hunting rifle. A dispute arose between the men: the janitor believed that it would be better if the Germans won the war. Front-line soldier Yumatov, the hero of films about war and victory, considered this a personal insult.

Thanks to the famous lawyer Boris Kuznetsov, the actor avoided charges of premeditated murder. Yumatov was released on his own recognizance, and then received an amnesty as a veteran.

After leaving Sailor's Silence, Yumatov stopped drinking and started going to church, but they still stopped inviting him to the filming - they were afraid of outbursts of anger and inappropriate behavior.

2 years after the trial, in 1997, Georgy Yumatov died from a rupture of the abdominal aorta.

Archil Gomiashvili

In his youth, Archil was imprisoned more than once for hooliganism, fighting and theft. But the first article of 17-year-old Gomiashvili was political. “The street where I grew up in Tbilisi was hooligan. Young people and students danced around,” the actor said in an interview. - They published unofficial magazines, and I also participated. They gave me ten... I served four years, and was taken from the camp to the construction of the Volga-Don Canal. But after I wrote a letter to the Minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the USSR Kruglov, I was released for lack of evidence of a crime.”

Then fights began, theft, new arrests and sentences - in total the actor was imprisoned 4 times. In 1943, Gomiashvili joined the Tbilisi Russian Drama Theater named after. Griboyedov, with whom the artist’s biggest case is connected. One night, with an accomplice, Gomiashvili cut the leather from the chairs in the auditorium and sold it to a shoemaker. For this, the young actor spent 2 years in a correctional camp near Tbilisi.

Having been freed, Gomiashvili went to Moscow and entered the Moscow Art Theater School, from where he was expelled for fighting. The student was threatened with another trial, and Gomiashvili returned to Georgia for a while.

Each of us can have failures. No one is immune from this, just like the celebrities on today's list. They all visited a prison cell where they spent some time. Everyone has their own sins: some were jailed for hooliganism, others for drunk driving, tax evasion and other violations.

During the years of Soviet power, it was allowed to exchange no more than 30 US dollars for a trip to a capitalist country. When the trip failed, Dolinsky sold this modest amount with a profit of 200 rubles, which at that time was the monthly salary of a skilled worker...

After this, Vladimir began to engage in currency speculation, and in 1973 he was “caught” by the KGB. He spent a year in the Lefortovo detention center and then received five years in prison. At the request of many famous actors Dolinsky's sentence was reduced to 4 years.

In the summer of 1997, the actor Victor Kosykh, who as a child played such famous roles as Kostya Inochkin from “Welcome, or No Trespassing”, and Danka from “The Elusive Avengers”, became the unwitting culprit of the tragedy.

Together with his son, he was driving his Zhiguli in the Moscow metro area “Vladykino”. Suddenly pedestrians began to cross his path. Victor was forced to turn sharply towards the summer cafe. As a result, three men sitting at the tables were injured.

Georgy Yumatov in March 1994, he shot a janitor with a hunting rifle who was helping the actor bury his beloved dog Frosya, who had died the day before.

Yumatov, according to Article 103 of the Criminal Code, faced imprisonment for a term of 3 to 10 years. But the lawyer was able to prove that the janitor was the first to attack the actor with a knife. As a result, two months later Georgy Alexandrovich was released from Matrosskaya Tishina on his own recognizance.

One lady left, but the second stayed. Well, my friends even... They regarded this as consent to a closer acquaintance. At that time I was sleeping in the next room. And a couple of days later I was arrested on charges of rape...”

Fortunately, the girl withdrew the statement from the police in exchange for the consent of one of the rapists to marry her. In this way, the actor managed to avoid a criminal record...

He starred in 18 films, the most famous of which are “The Island of Lost Ships”, “A Lost Cause”, “He Came on Memorial Day”, “Three Percent Risk”...

Part of the criminal group of the Sediuk brothers, better known as Kolya-Karate and McKenna, he used his acting and directing talent to defraud businessmen and did it brilliantly. Members of the gang, which included more than 100 fighters, greatly respected Shalolashvili and called him nothing less than Arkady Palych. When he was arrested, such famous people as Mikhail Boyarsky and Konstantin Raikin interceded on his behalf. Around 1995, Arkady Shalolashvili died of cirrhosis.

December 17, 1973 film director Sergei Parajanov was arrested on charges of homosexuality with the use of violence (Article 122, parts 1, 2 of the Criminal Code of the Ukrainian SSR)…

At the heart of Parajanov’s case, his friends and biographers say, is a joint action by the cultural department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Ukraine and the republican KGB. It turns out that Parajanov constantly reviled some employee of the Central Committee in the field of culture... The authorities acted very carefully - they imprisoned Parajanov for homosexuality. They say that in the USSR this is punishable by law... and there is no politics...
