Who doesn’t know the popular entertainment program “Yeralash”? Every Russian from a very young age loved these short stories with a dose of pure humor and talented young actors. The head of this program is Boris Yurievich Grachevsky – film director and screenwriter with an interesting biography.
Boris Grachevsky was born on March 18, 1949 in the suburbs. Over the years, he has mastered several professions, sometimes not related to cinema. He first studied at the Kaliningrad Mechanical College, where he was captain of the basketball team. Later he was noticed among the members of the KVN team. Gradually, the fascination with cinematography became predominant for Grachevsky, and he got a job in the Gorky film studio, and then began training at VGIK, specializing in the organization of film production.
In 1974, Boris Grachevsky and Alexander Khmelik founded the well-known film magazine Yeralash - a satirical children's program created on the idea of Alla Surikova. The shooting of the plots was accompanied by the invitation of professional athletes and actors, and young talents could rehearse in their own theater “Yeralasha”. Many modern stars worked on the program, which over time achieved great popularity. Among them are Sergey Lazarev, GlyukoZa, Vlad Topalov, Anna Tsukanova, Anna Nazareva and many others.
In the work of Boris Grachevsky there are serious films. One of them became
Cinema Roof (2009). Here he raises the most important social problems and brings three young heroines together on the edge of the roof, which is why the name of the entire film is taken.
Grachevsky tries himself in other creative directions. Recently, the director said that he is preparing his debut solo album “I love you”, dedicated to his second wife, Alina Voronova. /
