The period of work in the south of France was the most fruitful for the artist. His words “to seek life in color” became the leitmotif of creativity.

about an amazing actor, about the "evil force" of Soviet cinema. We're going to talk about George Millar. The father is a French engineer, the mother is the daughter of a Siberian gold miner, the son is Baba Yaga. Although Georgy Millyar’s career began with the role of Cinderella, the trouble-free fake was persuaded to replace the ill actress. And here we go. Georgy Frantsevich claimed that he “represents an evil force in cinema.” And he was absolutely right. Unsurpassed Baba Yaga, Kaschei, devils, Kikimores, water – none of these fairy-tale characters was left without his acting attention. “This is not a female role, Baba Yaga. What kind of actress would make herself so scary on screen? The make-up will only turn away - she will immediately draw cilia to herself, said Millar and took over everything. And not only did he take, but sometimes even asked for a role. In "Vasilis Peresrednaya" he played three characters at once. So he lived his whole life, delighting children and adults with his play. He married at sixty-five, became a people's artist at eighty-five, France - the homeland of his father - never saw, but did not get to Siberia.

Leonora plans to elope with Don Alvaro, but he accidentally shoots and kills her father, who curses them as he dies. The lovers go on the run, but get separated. Bent on revenge, Leonora's brother Don Carlo, hunts them down.
Verdi painted an immense canvas with this dark but tuneful opera, vividly brought to life in John Dexter’s production, with sets by the great Eugene Berman. The legendary Leontyne Price is seen in one of her greatest roles, Leonora. Price’s soaring voice encompasses every nuance of Leonora’s emotion as she moves from joy through resignation to ultimate heartbreak. James Levine’s brilliant leading of the Met orchestra and chorus is a lesson in Verdi style. Giuseppe Giacomini is Alvaro, the man Leonora loves, and Leo Nucci is Don Carlo, the dark instrument of their Fate. close
