Vysotsky demonstrates the ideal behavior model of a charismatic person.
Approximately 70% of the time on the screen the hero Vysotsky. And that's great, because it's Vysotsky who defines the film's charm. Without him, it would be an ordinary Soviet detective, well shot, with good actors, but already forgotten by our time.
It was the character of Vysotsky that made the film immortal.
Vysotsky demonstrates a model of behavior of a charismatic person. This model is best revealed in conflicts, and conflicts in the film occur constantly: with each criminal and very often with Sharapov.
Very insolent. But kind to his, calm, friendly. I hate enemies very much. I'm sure of what I did.
Sharapov is cute, but unrealistic. He could not command a company unless it was a company of kindergarteners. It has zero dominance. And he will not become an investigator: he will not be able to put pressure on a person who crossed the road at a red light, let alone a hardened criminal. And he didn't go over the front line 22 times. He would have been caught the first time. He has not a drop of audacity, he is strongly clamped, shy, unsure of himself. No unexpected circumstances are lost.
She's acting like a girl. Zhiglov made a little joke on him when he took the case to registration, and Sharapov is already hysterical, kicked Zhiglov out of the house. Then he wonders if he did the right thing to bring him back. They have a family relationship and Sharapov as a wife.
Can't talk to a girl. And he didn't serve in the army. He was put on guard, and he missed the criminal and left the post.
He doesn't even look like a company commander. Big blue eyes, neat facial features, lanky and clumsy.
