The son of Ukrainian peasants with a town talking, how did they take it in the artists? Yes, since childhood, a terrible reminder of the fascist occupation remains - strong stuttering. It's from frightened when a German, laughing at a 7-year-old child, a queue from the machine over his head "joked" ... And the lasova became an artist, and what else! It is called the most beautiful actors in Russia, the most talented reader of poetry and prose. In 1980 he was awarded the Lenin Prize for reading the scoring text to a documentary film about the Great Patriotic War.

In general, Vasily Semenovich in his 87 years was distinguished from other artists, he was special. Always did only what the soul was lying. Nobility, honesty, loyalty is about the lasover. More than 60 years on the Scene of the Wakhtangov Theater, all his life is faithful to his friends. The most important thing in life is love is his words. For the first time fell in love with the fellow woman Tatyana Samoylov. Love to the second wife pushed the romantic Vasily Semenovich on beautiful actions - once he sailed to her on Brigantine with Alay Sails! Got married, waited for a child. But the death of his wife in the car accident destroyed their happiness. And only in the third marriage with an amazing actress Irina Kupchenko, peace and happiness came to the heart of the lasover. They lived together for 49 years ... Sons were born, Alexander and Sergey, but the younger in 2013 dies from a heart attack, having managed to give an anechka's lasover. Vasily Semenovich loved children very much, for more than 20 years he spent the Children's Film Festival "Scarlet Sails". He loved people at all, was very attentive to everyone. 3 years ago after the illness and grave operation, a worker of a city studio named after Gorky Valentine was died. She looked sharply, exhausted, she came to shoot and quietly sat in the studio. Forgated with everyone. What could we help her in her suffering? Once the Valya whispered softly: "I'd like to see the lasover ...". An artist responded to our request and came on the same day! High, static, with a bouquet of autumn colors, he walked along the studio corridor to the one that he was idle ... It was a holiday for everyone, a holiday with tears. Especially a lot of tears was after Valentine, seeing the artist, extended his hands to him, whispered: "Vanechka ... Vanerava ...". This day I will always remember. And keep a gift from Vasily Semenovich, his book with a gift inscription. I have a personal grief -Umer favorite artist. And I am happy that he was in my life.
