Boris Yurchenko was born on June 24, 1936. He learned early what war and starvation meant. But despite the hardships, he eagerly watched all the films he could see and dreamed of becoming an actor. He successfully entered VGIK at the acting faculty, where he studied in the workshop of Mikhail Ilyich Roma, and successfully graduated in 1963. After receiving the diploma of the artist, he entered the troupe of the theater-studio of the film actor. In 1972, he left of his own accord, as it was difficult to combine film and stage work.
However, later Yurchenko appeared in various theaters with which he worked under contract.
Boris began acting in his second year. For the first time, the audience saw him in the musical comedy directed by Maxim Ruf “A quarrel in Lukash”, where he played the role of Vasya Suchkov.
In 1960, the actor appeared in the social melodrama “A Simple Story” directed by Yuri Egorov. In his student years, Boris starred in Ivan Pyryev’s film Our Mutual Friend, in the films
"At your doorstep" "Beat the drum!"
The directors really drew attention to the young actor after his work in the film directed by Alexander Stolper “The Living and the Dead”, where he very convincingly created the image of Petty Officer Kovalchuk.
Then he filmed almost continuously. In his track record, the films “Unsolicited Love”, “Enchanted Gum”, “Big Ore”, “Witch Island”, “Package”, “Password is not needed”, “The Way to Saturn” and “The End of Saturn”, “The Golden Watch”, “There is no Returning Road”, “The Main Witness”, “The Marked Atom”, “The Old Fortress”, “The Stepmother”, “The Hottest Month”, “Without the Sun”, “On the Botches”, “Night Fun”.
Boris Yurchenko did not live to see his sixtieth birthday. In 1996, the actor died, and then the film “Ermak” was released by directors Valery Uskov and Vladimir Krasnopolsky, where he played Mamyka. That was his last role.
