Since October 9, one of the most long-awaited films of 2008 has been at the box office - a historical and biographical drama about Admiral Kolchak. We will see Kolchak the polar explorer, Kolchak the leader of the White Guards, but most importantly, we will see Kolchak the lover and beloved. When the admiral was arrested, his beloved Anna Timireva told the Bolsheviks: “Arrest me too. I can't live without him! And this is the absolute truth.
Director Andrei Kravchuk focused on the relationship of the heroes, on the love story of Admiral Alexander Kolchak (Konstantin Khabensky) and Anna Timireva (Elizaveta Boyarskaya). However, the civil war was the most important event in the lives of the heroes, and naval battles were recreated with great care.
- No historical ships have survived in Russia, and we had to build a real model of Kolchak's ship. - Director Andrey Kravchuk tells. - For the scenes of naval combat, our stuntmen and pyrotechnics have come up with a unique technology. The fight, which lasts 12 minutes on the screen, was filmed for about a month. It was a feat for the whole group.
To make a film about the admiral, a life-size model of Kolchak's ship was built. Filming lasted about two years in various parts of the country. Some scenes were filmed in Irkutsk and on Baikal (Olkhon Island), a polar expedition - on the Small Sea, the retreat of the White Guards - near Nizhny Novgorod, and the film crew also visited St. Petersburg, Sevastopol, Kolomna and even Torzhok.
In addition to Konstantin Khabensky and Anna Boyarskaya, Sergei Bezrukov, Anna Kovalchuk, Vladislav Vetrov, Yegor Beroev, Richard Borinzhe, Nikolai Burlyaev, Viktor Verzhbitsky, Fedor Bondarchuk, Alexander Lazarev, Alexander Efimov and even Barbara Brylska starred in the film.
Igor Matvienko worked on the music for the film, and Victoria Daineko sang the main song "Anna" to lyrics by Anna Timireva.
It is extremely difficult to evaluate a film in order not to indulge in banal laudatory epithets. Probably the main assessment of the film is that none of the Russian distribution companies dared to release their films at the same time as Admiral, they simply could not withstand the competition …
