Frunzik Mkrtchyan: Sad Sun

That night, the guests of the hotel "Russia" were surprised by a strange noise that came from a hotel restaurant. The most disgruntled even came out of their rooms with a solid determination to figure out what was the matter, and to clean up.
However, being in the door of the restaurant, unexpectedly began to smile and delayed there until the morning. The depth was simple - directed by Georgy Delhelia shot his new film Mimino.
According to the scenario, the Hero Wahtang Kikabidze came to the restaurant to meet with the elusive Larisa Ivanovna and, without waiting for her, rushed into the dance, trying to shut down his companion Khachikyan - his neighbor by number, which Frunzik Mkrtchyan played.
Despite the fact that Frunzik at the time of filming was no longer a sober, his dancing and attempts during the next par sit on the twine and raise the nasal scarf's floor hit everyone.
When those surrounding no longer remained for laughter, and Frunzik could not catch the ill-fated fabric, the director called Kikabidze and asked to snatch the scarf from the efforts turned from the efforts of Mkrtchyan. The actor performed the will of the director. And Frunzik, realizing that he was hanged, raised his head and locked the gathered such a trick that the restaurant was again visited from laughter ...

Live legend

July 4, he would have been 75 years old. In Armenia, Mkrtchyan is a real national hero. At one of the central prospectuses of Yerevan, there is a huge portrait from which this very, perhaps, famous and adorable Armenian looks at passersby with a sad smile. By the way, Armenians themselves are called otherwise - Merom.
"In fact, the parents called their firstborn frunzic," Albert Mkrtchyan says. - Probably, in honor of the Soviet military leader, Mikhail Frunze. In the thirties, Armenians were accused of nationalism, so they began to give children strange names.
Roberts, Alberta, Frunziki appeared. And when many years later the theater them. Sandukian, in which the brother worked, toured in Lebanon, the local Armenians called him a Merom. This is a biblical name that translates the sun. "
Today Brother Frunzik Albert Mushegovich is the artistic director of the Yerevan Theater. MGRTCHYAN MGRE. On the theater building - a memorial plaque with a bas-relief in the form of a famous actor profile. Frunzik never worried because of his appearance.
Moreover, I did not see anything unusual in it. And about his outstanding in all respects, the nose even came up with jokes. When Mkrtchyan was invited to speak for money on various pirushki, he categorically refused, laughing, according to his own words, right in the nose inviting.
"No, brother never shonened his appearance," Albert laughs. - And looking at those whom Nature did not endorse the same nose as he was always surprised. And then, all Armenians have such noses. I have that, not so? "
Mkrtchyan Jr. Let not like two drops of water, but very similar to Frunzik. By profession, Albert Mushegovich - film director, graduated from Vgik. By the way, in his the graduation work Albert removed his brother.
"The film was called" Photo "and lasted only 15 minutes," he says. - I gave him the role of my father, whose son died in war. Frunzik managed to force the audience the first 10 minutes to die from laughter, and the last five - cry. "
Frunzik Mkrtchyan became a legend already in life. They say that the actor even had two passports - one official, and the other is a gift of friends in which it was written - "Mger Mkrtchyan". Although the passport of the people's idol was without necessary.
When, together with Vakhtang, Kikabidze and George, Deloia Frunzik went to the Kremlin to receive a state award for the film "Mimino", the guards demanded that they have to prevent documents. What Mkrtchyan answered Mkrtchyan: "Is foreign spies to the Kremlin without documents go?" Of course, the laureates missed without inspection.
And one day, together with friends, Mkrtchyan went to visit the arrested comrade. Leaving friends in the restaurant, Frunzik emitted for a few minutes and appeared already ... in the company of the arrested and chief of the SIZO.
Mkrtchyan and money did not need. "I just recently told such a story," Albert Mkrtchyan continues. - Somehow Frunzik suddenly occurred to the idea of \u200b\u200bflying to Sochi. He was generally a spontaneous man - he could sit-sit, and then picked up and go to another end Soviet Union.
And that time, taking a friend with him, Frunzik was in Sochi after a few hours. In his pocket he had 1000 rubles. Resting at the resort and walking in restaurants, friends returned to Yerevan. In his pocket, Frunzik was still lying on a thousand rubles. "
The popularity of Mkrtchyan was fantastic. Somehow, after entering the screens of the film, Georgy Deloia Mimino, Frunzik flew to Moscow for several days. Together with his brother, they rushed to an important meeting, and Frunzik offered to get to her on the subway.
"We barely squeezed into the car," Albert recalls. "People" do not push around: who reads who is sleeping. However, in thirty seconds, after Frunzik found himself in the car, everyone began to applaud. Brother became embarrassing, and on the next station we came out.
He was loved not only in Moscow and the cities of the Soviet Union. I have a stored article from the New York Times newspaper. "Five minutes of silence MGRTCHYAN MGRTCHYAN called. The fact is that on one of his performances in America, more than half of the hall was Americans who did not speak Russian or in Armenian.
Then the brother came out on the foressen and five minutes silently stood and looked into the hall. The audience from the laughter slipped from his chairs to the floor. And Frunzik looked at them again, bowed and left. "

Mother's pet

Since childhood, Frunzik drew perfectly. However, any other profession, except acting, did not think. He was born in Leninakan, her parents - Musheg and Sanam - worked at the local textile plant. "Our father and mother were the children of Genocide," Albert Mkrtchyan says.
- They were 5 years old when they were found literally on the road and placed in one orphanage. They growled together, got married in the 24th year, when one of the largest textile combine in the Soviet Union was opened, settled there to work. When the combine was a club, in the amateur mug of which Frunzik played. "
The apartment of Mkrtchyanov was on the second floor. On the staircase The ten-year Frunzik hung the curtain and arranged in front of the monospect flow located on the staircase. When after one of the ideas he went to the bows, he noticed in surprise that the public was more - the little spectators sat on his knees from their parents who selflessly applauded a little genius.
In the fact that the boy is extremely extremely, no one else was doubted. In Yerevan, still with admiration, as the 17-year-old Mkrtchyan played the role of the 80-year-old old man and no one could learn in the Beginned Older Guy from the working outskirts.
"Theatrical triumph started at Frunzik from his first roles," says Albert Mkrtchyan. - As a student of the second course of the theater Institute, he received an invitation to the theater. Sandukian on the role of Ezopa, which was supposed to play in a couple with his teacher. After the first performance, the teacher approached Frunzik, kissed him and gave way to a role.
Who then he was just not played in the theater, ranging from King Guidon and ending with Sirano de Bergerack. His movie also loved him too. Did FRunzik considered yourself implemented? Of course not. Only the fool will think so.
Father did not live to the glory of the Son. But Mom managed. She loved Frunzik very much. We - I and our two sisters - even offended her. But Mom said that we are without that combat, but Frunzik is helpless. When the brother was already very popular, he came home, got up under the shower and called Mom. She came and soap him. There was such music of Mother and Son. "
For a truly superstar, Frunzik began after the role of Khachikyan's driver in the Mimino Deltera film.
By the way, the mass of funny replicas, who became truly popular ("Such questions are asked what is inconvenient to answer even", "What do these" Zhiguli "think?", "I'll tell you one smart thing, but only you do not be offended" and others), Frunzic came up with himself. The interrogation scene of the Witness of Khachikyan in court is the absolute improvisation of the actor.
At the suggestion of Mkrtchyan, the director removed the episode in which the heroes of Frunzik and Kikabidze turned out to be in one elevator along with two Chinese. And one Chinese spoke to another: "How these Russians are similar to each other." At the request of censorship, the episode from the picture had to be cut.
I remember the filming of Mimino and unpleasant moments - Mkrtchyan began to drink hard. Several times had to cancel. In the end, Deloy put a rigid condition to Frunzik - either alcohol or cinema. For several days, Mkrtchyan was not triggered to alcohol. And then came to the director and sadly said: "I realized why the world rules. They do not drink and from the morning begin to engage in their careers. "

People's Deputy

Despite the universal adoration, in the personal life of Frunzik was unhappy. After a brief first marriage, he met a surprisingly beautiful student of the Damir theater Institute. Like all women, she did not resist the charm of Frunzik and soon became his wife.
The couple had two children - the son of Vazgen and the daughter of Nune. The actor adored them, from each trip brought a lot of toys. But most often he immediately took their children and began to play himself.
"He was all interested," Albert says. - How to arrange, for example, toy pigeons that take off into the sky and then return to you in your hands. Frunzik disassembled them, trying to understand the device of the mechanism. And, of course, he could not collect back.
He was surprised before the end of his life. Could not, for example, understand how the TV works. How this film from America comes to Yerevan. I disassembled the receiver, spun everything, and then even the master could not fix anything. "
Damira everywhere accompanied her husband. IN " Caucasian captive"She played a driver's wife's wife, Sachow, who sadly tells the hero of Yuri Nikulina about local customs - the abduction of brides.
Every day, the behavior of Damira became more and more strange. She sat down her belly scene of jealousy. Finally, Frunzik could not stand and appealed to the doctors on the advice of friends. The sentence of physicians was terrible - schizophrenia. When the efforts of local specialists were powerless, Damira was sent to psychiatric clinic in France.
Personal life Frunzik Over time, it seems to be improved. He met a charming woman. Tamara was the daughter of Chairman of the Writers of Armenia Oganesyan.
It is said that when the actor once again went to the registry office, one of his friends began his, they say, he did not often have an institution in this. To that Frunzik with his characteristic humor answered: "Chaplin generally eight times married. What, worse? " Alas, but this marriage did not bring Mkrtchyan happiness.
"Was he closed man? - Albert Mushegovich argues. - No, he lived among people. And at the same time lived alone. One day they asked why he walks on the night streets, Frunzik was surprised: "Why is one? Cats go, dogs. So I'm not alone. "
He was amazingly thin and good man. Even too good. Everyone had a claim to him, and he did not have them. Frunzik was a real people's deputy, unofficial, of course. Helped thousands of people. He could no longer refuse ... "
Nune's daughter by this time married and left her husband in Argentina. The sense of the life of Frunzik was the son of Vazgen. However, the behavior of the young man also began to worry the Father. Vazgen showed the best psychiatric physicians who, alas, could not do anything.
The mother's mental illness was inherited. They say that when Vazgen was placed at some time in the same French clinic, where Dinara was located, they did not even recognize each other.
IN last years Life Frunzik refused the cinema, focusing all the forces on creating his theater. "On December 28, 1993, I spent the whole day at home," Albert Mkrtchyan says.
- We sat, talked about art. Frunzik was interested only. I remember, he once again put the cassette with Adahio Albii, which was going to use in his next play.
Then I laid him sleep and went home for a few hours. It was five purses. Reaching the house, I immediately began to call Frunzik - I had some kind of unkind premonition. In general, we really felt each other.
I remember somehow at four in the morning suddenly woke up and immediately scored the brother's room. He was then in Moscow, starred in Mimino. After the first beep, he raised the phone. "Why you do not sleep?" - I ask. "What there is," answers, "just a person died next to me."
And that day I tried to get through to him. Although I understood that it was impossible: Phunzik's phone was faulty, and it could only call it, and not receive calls. And at seven in the evening they called me and said that Frunzik is no longer. He became bad, and "ambulance" could not do anything. Heart attack. He was 63 years old ...
At first, the government wanted to postpone the funeral on January 2. But I did not agree. Armenia was forgated with his brother on December 31. Before Pantheon, where his grave is located, thousands of people went behind the coffin.
Now from the brother begin to make a legend, repenting what was not. It is said that his health has undermined the death of a daughter's car accident. In fact, Nune died five years after the Frunzik did not become.
She had a tumor of the uterus, she made a successful operation. Nune sat in her ward together with her husband, and her tomb was broken away. Vazgen after the death of my brother I adopted. But last year it also did not. Cirrhosis of the liver. 33 years old he was.
Little was FRUNZIK life? And in what big Artist Life is not tragic? It is probably a fee for that talent that the Lord awarded them. Frunzik, of course, understood what an actor he was.
But never showed it. Because he was a man with large lettersAs she wrote bitterly adorable. Who stayed after him? The people who love him. I stayed our younger sisterOur grandchildren. So the genus Mkrtchyan continues. Someone from him will definitely be the same talented as Frunzik. "

Looking at the pictures of famous and successful figures, it seems that all sorts of misfortunes and failures bypass their lives by the party. However, in reality, this is not always the case. IN famous families Also often happen tragic, sometimes even scary events. True, the tag admirers do not always know about it. After all, in television scans, adorable artists are still smiling and give their audience warmly. All this describes the life of the universal favorite Frunzik Mkrtchyan, who a capricious destiny presented heavy trials.

Actually public recognition and successful career It does not necessarily promise real happiness. Some celebrities whose names were rumored by the people real life Presented cruel surprises: so, for them, psychiatric hospitals became close people for them.

Here is the biography of the wife Frunzik Mkrtchyan Donara Fate ordered terrible: the woman spent his last years in the ward. She was extremely popular in life - the Soviet cinema presented it unprecedented popularity, but now few people know about the woman who once performed the role of Aunt Nina in the Caucasian Captive Plant.

Beauty was a real star of the course - she simply did not have a penalty from fans. But the attractive Mkrtchyan conquered the girl with his charismaticness. But when a brilliant actor decided to marry Donara, his friends were very surprised and began to discourage him. By the way, for Frunzik it was a second marriage.

The comrades of the actor was very fascinated by the hot-tempered, the fastener character of Donara, although she was an extremely capable girl.

Manifestations of disease

Over time, the behavior of Donara Mkrtchyan began to occur oddities. At first, Frunzik thought that the spouse was simply jealous of him to fame, but gradually her actions were inexplicable at all. She was constantly near her husband, without letting him literally not a step, right on the stage arranged horrible tantrums to him. Jealousy suppressed her even when Frunzik just upgraded with other women. At home, everyone ended with beating dishes, shouts and even fights. Frunzik hoped that the birth of the second kid would calm the spouse. But only worse. The artist's wife, whom he loved, slowly turned into a homely tyrant, arranging scary scandals Even because of the most innocent episodes on the shooting of Frunzik.

Frunzik was depressed, he had to send a child to the same hospital as Donar. Hoping for improvement, doctors organized a meeting of Mother and Son. But no matter how terrible it sounds, they simply did not recognize each other.

Somehow Mkrtchyan, who drove out of grief, threw a careless phrase about his daughter, because of which the surrounding thought she died. There are still legends that Nune died many years ago. However, this is not true: the girl fell into an accident, but survived.

Tragic completion of history

And the husband who died due to a stroke in 63 years. After tragic eventsFamily related, Frunzik tried to drown out the arid depression in alcohol. But all these terrifying events remained unnoticed Donara.


Looking at the photos of successful and famous peopleIt makes up the view that all sorrows and adversity bypass them. But actually it is not. In the "star" families, tragedies also happen. But the fans do not always know about it. After all, on the screens, your favorite actors are still sparkling. All this fully belongs to the family of Frunzik Mkrtchyan, who fate prepared nozzles tests.

Frunzik Mkrtchyan


This actor did not need to appear, everything was known in the USSR. And in his native Armenia, he still has a national hero, his portraits can be seen on the streets of Yerevan. Full name Aktera Frunze Moshegovich Mkrtchyan. But in his homeland, it was more commonly called MRER, which means "light" in translating.


Official name Frunze is given in honor of the famous Soviet commander of time civil War Mikhail Frunze. Mger Frunze was born in the city of Leninakan of the Armenian SSR on July 4, 1930. Now it is the city of Gyumri. FRUNZE PARENTS - Refugees from the Armenian Genocide in Turkey. Their, lonely five-year-old children, found on the road and sent to one orphanage.

According to the memoirs of his brother, Frunzik really was from childhood a very kind and bright man. And he was thin, with a big nose, clumsy, and all laughed at him. But soon it turned out that nature presented a huge talent with sad eyes with sad eyes. Acting abilities he showed from childhood. From 10 years old, the boy arranged amateur performances for local children.


Very early Frunzik finished threw school and tried many professions. But I never forgot about the profession of an actor. At first he played in theatrical circle With a textile plant, then went to study in the studio at the Leninakan Drama Theater. And in 1947 was enrolled in the troupe.


Frunzik first became famous in his native Armenia, filming a movie and playing in the theater. And then, after the release of the movie "Caucasian Captive", His glory turned into a All-Union. Mkrtchyan adored not only the audience, but also colleagues, which happens infrequently. Mother also loved his more than the rest of the children at all, to which they were sometimes offended. But in the personal life the actor was not lucky. The first time he married a cat's classmate. But the marriage lasted for a short time and in about a year collapsed.

Donara Pilosyan.


For the second time, Frunzik married the young actress Donara Ploshan. When they met, Frunzika was already about 30, she was only 18. Young beauty conquered charm famous Aktera. First, Mkrtchyanov was born daughter Nune, then the son of Vazgen


If the current fans of the movie ask who Donara Ploshan, hardly anyone, except for the native of Armenia, will answer this question. Meanwhile, she was seen and everyone knew! After all, she played the role of his wife Comrade Dzhabrailov, personal driver Comrade Sachov, in the cult comedy "Caucasian captive" Gaidai. And in 1977, together with her husband, she starred in a comedy "Bagdasar divorces his wife." .


Donara was a famous Armenian theater actress. In the cinema she was rarely starred and was little known outside Armenia.


Frunzika Kinoroli brought tremendous popularity. He and his wife moved to Yerevan, bought a car. At first, Mkrtchyanov was born a daughter of Nune, then the son of Vazgen. Frunzik adored his children, he loved to give them toys, and played with them in these toys. Most of all, however, he loved to disassemble them to find out how they work. After that, not only the actor himself, but no master could already repair these toys.

Family drama


It would seem that everything in the family goes well. But the character of Donara began to deteriorate inexplicably. She did not want to throw acting career And sit at home with a child. At first, Frunzik believed that she envy his actor success and hoped that after the birth of the second child everything would work out. But over time, the situation was only aggravated.


They say that friends from the very beginning discussed Frunzik from marriage, motivating this by the fact that Donara was hot-tempered and unpredictable. Perhaps it was noticeably already with youth. Now the wife has satisfied her husband scary scandals and hysterics, jealous to all women without any reason. The life of the actor turned into hell.


On the advice of friends Frunzik divered his wife to specialists. The conclusion was disappointing: it is not the cost of character, but a serious mental illness. In addition, incurable. Because of the problems in the FRUNZIK family, in the early 70s, he refused many wonderful roles and began to abuse alcohol.

It turned out to be the fact that because of his drunkenness, filming almost broke. With children, too, not everything was in order. After marriage, the daughter of Nune moved with her husband to Argentina. I left us. They rummed that she died in a car accident., And it added bitterness and without that non-easy life Frunzik Mkrtchyan.


This is not quite so, Nune did not die, she survived his father for 5 years. The cause of rumors was his replica that her daughters were no longer. Everyone decided that she died, but not to ask. Probably Frunzik meant that his daughter was almost talked with him.

The actor was trying to treat his beloved wife with all their forces, first in Armenia, then placed in a psychiatric clinic in France. But everything was useless. IN last time Donara went to the scene in 1982. Then she was forever locked in the clinic.

Last years


The son Frunzik Vazgen has discovered the symptoms of the same illness as his mother. He was also placed in the clinic, they tried to heal. And too, without much success.

Frunzik Mkrtchyan married the third time, but the marriage did not last long, and he broke up with the third wife. By the end of his life, he turned out to be completely alone, despite the crowds of the fan.


In the movie Frunzik, at that time practically not shot, said that at his age it was already nothing to do. Basically, he was engaged in his own theater and did not follow his health at all. On December 29, 1993, Frunzik Mkrtchyan died in a dream from heart attack. Hardened a favorite actor on December 31 in Yerevan. Relatives believe that he could not survive the grief that brought him terrible disease Wife and son.


Donara Mkrtchyan did not come out of the hospital. In minutes of enlightenment, she was surprised why she was locked in a strange room and not let go home to children and her husband. Sometimes she recited sick passages from their roles and even organized a drama for patients in the clinic. Donara Nikolaevna died in 2011 in Sevan, Armenia.

Frunzik Mkrtchyan in recent years

In the mid-80s Frunze, Mkrtchyan is no longer removed. He is offered good roles, but he invariably refuses, jokingly arging that at his age no longer playing movies.

And in the early 90s Frunzik Mkrtchyan leaves the favorite theater. He offended the decision of the team, who chose the main director not him, who gave it 35 years of life to this theater, and Horagramyan. The artist took up the creation of his theater, but fate took him not so many years to the last act.

Personal life

FRUNZIKA MKRTCHYAN's personal life was tragic. All three marriage ended sadly. The first wife of the actor was his classmate of Knar, but the marriage collapsed almost immediately.

With the second wife, Donara Pylosyan Mkrtchyan met in the mid-50s. The girl came to enroll in Leninakan theatrical university. Young artists got married and started working together. The first they had a daughter Nune, and Son Vazgen was born soon. And when it seemed that a young family had improved and you could live happily and work, Donara got sick. Doctors discovered with her incurable mental illnessInherited.


Frunze showed his wife to famous specialists, but those help could not. The wife began to grow terribly jealous of Mkrtchyan, it seemed that he had mistresses everywhere, and he was not leaving about tour, but from the family. The personal life of the actor turned into hell. These problems at some point were reflected in the career of the actor - he had a major break in significant roles and major projects.


Donara's condition gradually worsened. Mkrtchyan had to agree to hospitalization of his wife in a psychiatric hospital in France without the right to exit from there. Mkrtchyan remained one with two children. Soon the daughter went to Argentina, and the son of the doctors found the same disease as the mother. All efforts of the ICRTCHYAN cured Vazgen turned out to be in vain. The son was hospitalized in the same clinic as his mother. They said that they, meeting in the corridor, have never recognized each other.


Personal life Frunzik Mkrtchyan Slapfully played light paintsWhen he married the third time. His wife became the daughter of the Chairman of the Union of Writers of Armenia Tamara Oganesyan, but this marriage soon collapsed. It was during this period that the artist, according to the press, began to abuse alcohol. I went first from the movies, and then from the theater.

Because of alcohol, the actor already happened one clinical deathBut the doctors managed to pull him from the next world. But the version of the press about the alcohol dependence of the actor members of the Mkrtchyan family does not confirm, although they mention his preference "to guilt and tobacco".

Subsequently, a brother Albert began to take care of the actor, who was worried, having learned that he did not communicate. Later, Albert recalled that Phunzik's phone was broken, you can only call him, and there is no calls - no, but some kind of hopeless premonition did not give my brother calm down. When Albert came to check his brother, then found him dead.


Frunzik Mkrtchyan did not grow on December 29, 1993, when he was 63 years old. Official reason Death was called a heart attack. It was a real tragedy, many believed that the actor could have played many more star role. On December 31, despite the festival day, the whole Yerevan gathered, thousands of people were gathered for the coffin of the artist to the grave in the Pantheon of the Geniuses of the Armenian Spirit in Yerevan.

The actor who almost always caused the audience with the audience, upset the public only once, when he died on December 29, 1993. Frunzik Mushegovich Mkrtchyan on the eve of New Year was buried.

Later, the authors of the documentary film telling about the fate of the Armenian actor will emphasize in Syncron: new Year's night Armenians drank the first glass without a stall and silently. Time was heavy, almost blockade, no electricity was served in the house, and everything seemed to everyone that the usual normal life ended. Amateur funeral frames imposed on the sound of the national wind instrument: Soul Perevaryd, when you hear "Inby" the dewunks - paraphrase of popular melodies - and you see in the frame of the crystal faces of thousands of thousands of Yerevan, who applauding the actor for the last time ... Such frames do not compile.


Now, most often the actors remember the role of the Khachikyanian driver in the Mimino film, and the Mkrtchyan biased viewer is familiar with the episode in the picture "Do not burn!". Remember how two strata-past people are sitting in the debt point and the character of Mkrtchyan suddenly asks Vizabi: "Do you want a candy?" And immediately answers himself: "But not!"

Many called him "sad cheerful man." Still, there is a tragic beginning in comic. The world famous for the world, Journalists, too, were also called clown "with autumn in the heart" ...


The media argued that during the filming Mimino, Frunzik Mkrtchyan began to drink hard. Several times the shooting even had to cancel. As a result, the director of Deliay put a rigid condition to the actor - either alcohol or role. For several days, Mkrtchyan was not triggered to alcohol. And then, they write, came to the director and said sadly: "I realized why the world rules of media. They do not drink and from the morning begin to engage in their careers. " And the best scene of the interrogation of the witness of Khachikyan in the court of Mkrtchyan masterfully simpeted.


It would seem that when life in the Soviet Union, universal adoration - skipping in a happy and secured life. For example, passport control at airports famous actor Passed without documents: just showed his famous profile. A big nose, sad eyes, broken in the sadness of eyebrows ... He was called a comic without a smile as the great Max Linder. Native actors said that, as a child, Frunzik was helpless, "all laughed at him." Playground municipal apartment The little actor turned into theatrical scene. He played on her monospectacles, said "that in the head will make up." And the neighbors spertors laughed ...


The legend states that the actor himself treated his massive nose with humor and even composed about himself anecdotes. Vakhtang Kikabidze in one of the interviews told such a story: "And Archil Gomiashvili went to the premiere of the play" Sirano de Bergerac ", in which Frunz played the role of Sirano. In this performance, there is a very long monologue of Sirano, where he argues on the theme of his thorough nose. For Frunza, this monologue turned out very short, even minutes did not pull. When we went after the performance in the car, I say to him: "Listen, Frunz, why did you cut this long monologue? Still classic... "And he answers:" Jan's Buba, when you talk about your nose for a long time, Armenians are unpleasant. "


Albert Mkrtchyan's native brother, Albert Mkrtchyan recalled the case in the United States. "I have a stored article from the New York Times newspaper. "Five minutes of silence MGRTCHYAN MGRTCHYAN called. The fact is that on one of his performances in America, more than half of the hall was Americans who did not speak Russian or in Armenian. Then the brother came out on the foressen and five minutes silently stood and looked into the hall. The audience from the laughter slipped from his chairs to the floor. And Frunzik looked at them again, bowed and left. "


They say, today in many offices Yerevan hang portraits of a talented countryman Frunzik Mkrtchyan.

The personal life of the actor was secretive and challenging. As it turned out later, terribly unhappy. Not like the life of the star of the Soviet screen.

By tragic coincidences before today's day Neither the Son nor the daughter nor the spouse actor - no one lived. Frunzik Mkrtchyan had three marriages, with the actress Damira - the second wife - they met at the institute. Gave birth to two children. In a professional circle, they said that the death of his daughter finally finished the heart of Frunzik Mkrtchyan, but in fact Nune died five years after the actor did not become. This was told by his brother Albert: I was sitting in the ward a complex operation, and she broke off a thrombus ... By the way, an adult soulless son Vazgen after the death of Frunzik adopted herself too ... Vasgen died at 33 years from the liver cirrhosis . It happened quite recently.


Events developed and "finished" Frunzik Mushegovich on increasing: life in the house after some time became unbearable due to the scenes of jealousy Damira. As stated in the same documentary filmAfter performances or filming, the artist did not want to even return home. The hysteries and scandals of the wife were inexplicable and participated. The birth of the second child - Son - did not change anything. So it lasted until famous artist did not appeal to doctors. The sentence is schizophrenia.

And at first they life together She even accompanied her husband on filming ... For example, in the "Caucasian captive" Damire, episode was given: she played the driver's wife's wife Sachov. Remember beautiful womanwhich sadly tells at the gate of the hero Yuri Nikulina about local customs - the abduction of brides? In short, when the efforts of local specialists were powerless, Damira was sent to a psychiatric clinic in France.


Later, Frunzik married a charming woman - the daughter of the chairman of the Writers of Armenia Oganesyan. It is said that when the actor once again went to the registry office, one of his friends began his, they say, he did not often have an institution in this. To that Frunzik with his characteristic humor answered: "Chaplin generally eight times married. What, worse? " Alas, but this marriage collapsed. "Was he closed man? - Albert Mushegovich argues. - No, he lived among people. And at the same time lived alone. Once, when he was asked why he walks on the night streets, Frunzik was surprised: "Why is one? Cats go, dogs. So I'm not alone. "

After the failures in the personal life, Frunzik closed his attention on children and theater. It seemed to be allocated. Nune's daughter got married and left her husband in Argentina. The sense of the life of Frunzik was the son of Vazgen. However, the behavior of the young man also began to disturb his father. Vazgen advised the best psychiatrists, who, alas, in this case were powerless. The mother's mental illness was inherited. They say that when Vazgen was placed at some time at the same French clinic, where Damira was, they did not even recognize each other. Tragedy...

In the last years of his life, Frunzik refused the cinema, focusing all the forces on creating his theater. Colleagues in the Yerevan Theater named after Sondukyan call him an actor from beginning to end. Frunzik Mkrtchyan conquered all the roles: tragic, comic, classic, contemporary ... and the famous and beloved actor would have to work out ... and the theater could have been ... did not have time. Or tired?

He died instantly in a dream. Heart attack. Folk artist USSR, Winner of the State Prize of the USSR, Winner of the State Prize of the Armenian SSR Frunzik Mkrtchyan was only 63 years old.

Albert Mkrtchyan somehow expressed his version of his brother's death: "Frunz wished death, he rushed to her, he dreamed of her, severely quickening in itself the life instincts. His not the time destroyed and not addiction to the guilt and tobacco ... No, he deliberately walked to his death, not having the strength to survive the illness of his son and his wife - a huge maritious mountain. "
