Russian actor and director, People's Artist of the USSR Vladimir Gardin was born in 1877 in Moscow. He began his creative career with playing in provincial theaters, and in 1904-1905 he became an actor at the V.F. Komissarzhevskaya Theatre in St. Petersburg.
Vladimir Rostislavovich Gardin has always played the difficult roles of the main characters. He perfectly reincarnated in Fyodor Karamazov (“Brothers Karamazov”), Fedu Protasov from the work of L.N. Tolstoy “Living corpse”, etc. Later, Gardin began work on independent productions and film adaptations of literary works. The most successful were Anna Karenina (1914), War and Peace (1915), and Turgenev’s Nest of Nobility.
While working on films, Vladimir Gardin actively collaborated with Soviet film organizations, and was one of the directors who joined the revolution. During his years he directed films of different genres, starting with adventure paintings and educational films and ending with historical and biographical works and melodramas from the life of the Catholic clergy.
Of all Gardin’s films, special attention was drawn to the production of Poet and the Tsar (1927), which became the first Soviet work about A.S. Pushkin. The film is dedicated to the last years of the poet’s life and his tragic death. The picture had a deep educational significance, recalling facts from the life of the most important person in Russian history. But, despite this, she came across harsh criticism of Mayakovsky and a number of reviewers associated with the transfer of the image of the Russian poet and the lack of a message about his creative potential and significance for all literature.
In the late 1920s, having shot more than two dozen films, including Bear Wedding (1926) and Four hundred million (1928), Vladimir Gardin fully devotes himself to acting career. One of his most famous roles is
The Man in a Case . /
