On April 3, the famous theater and cinema actor, People's Artist of the Russian Federation Vladimir Nosik turned 73. This surname is well known to several generations of viewers, because this artist is not the only representative of the famous dynasty. Unfortunately, his older brother has long been dead, but their work was continued by the children. What surname the brothers should actually wear, was there any competition between them, what they both regretted, and which of their children achieved noticeable success in the acting profession - further in the review.

Valery Nosik

The brothers owe their unusual surname to Polish roots: their father, Benedict Nosek, was a Pole. He decided to replace one letter in his surname so that it sounded more familiar to local residents, and became a Nose. According to another version, the new surname appeared due to an oversight of the passport officer, and this mistake saved Benedict's life. In 1938 he was arrested because of his refusal to sign a denunciation of his comrades, he spent several months behind bars, and then, after a change in the leadership of the NKVD, fell under an amnesty. After his release, he was given a new passport, in which he accidentally made a mistake in his last name. Thanks to this, he managed to avoid further reprisals, because Nosek was convicted at one time, not Nosik.

In 1940, Benedict's son Valery was born. Although his parents had nothing to do with the world of art - his father worked at the Moscow Chemical Pharmaceutical Plant, his mother was an accountant - Valery studied in a theater studio from the 4th grade and, in his youth, firmly decided to become an artist. From the first time he was not accepted at VGIK, and Valery worked for a year as a fitter at the plant, and then made another attempt, which turned out to be successful.

While still a student, he began acting in films and performing on the stage of the Moscow Youth Theater, where he met his first wife, Leah Akhedzhakova. Their marriage broke up after a few years. Nosik's second wife was also an actress - Maria Sternikova. They lived together for 9 years, they had a son, Alexander. The actor spent the last 14 years of his life alone.

Valery Nosik played more than 100 film roles, but most of them were episodic. But even his episodes were so vivid that it was simply impossible not to notice this actor. The first popularity came to him after the role of an unlucky student in the comedy "Operation" Y "and other adventures of Shurik. The artist was not happy that they began to recognize him - it became impossible to ride the subway and walk the streets. But in the 1970s. he had to come to terms with this, because his goalkeeper Otto Fukin from "Big Change" and an amateur detective Buttercup from the films "Aniskin and Fantômas" and "And Aniskin Again" became popular favorites. He probably would have played dozens more roles, but, unfortunately, he was given only 54 years of his life, and in 1995 he died of a heart attack.

Vladimir Nosik

In 1948 Valery Nosik had a younger brother, Vladimir. In his upbringing, he showed the most active participation, because his parents often disappeared at work and instructed him to check the lessons of his younger brother. Since childhood, they spent a lot of time together, and Vladimir passed on his passion for theater and cinema from his brother. He always admired and was proud of Valery and forever remembered the moment when he first saw him on the screen: "".

Just like his brother, Vladimir had the nickname Nose in childhood, just like Valery, before entering VGIK, he worked as a mechanic and turner at a factory, just like his brother, he began acting in films during his studies and played in the cinema more than 100 roles. They were completely different both externally and in character, but at the same time they always got along well, and no competition and creative jealousy arose between them, because neither in the theater nor in the cinema they were never rivals, and Vladimir called his older brother his guiding star.

The only thing that Vladimir Nosik regretted was that they managed to work too little together: "".

Alexander Nosik

The elder brother had an only son, Alexander, and he followed in his father's footsteps. From childhood, he was involved in the performances of the Maly Theater, where his parents performed. Although he was proud of his famous father, his fame brought him many problems as a child. Later he recalled: "".

When he was 9 years old, his parents divorced. And although his father continued to communicate with him, due to his constant employment, they rarely saw each other. Only a couple of years before he left, they finally managed to get close and catch up. Only then was Alexander able to let go of childhood grievances against his father.

Both fellow students from the Shchukin school and fellow actors often asked him the same question: is he not the namesake of the famous brothers-actors. And although Alexander was very tired of both such questions and constant comparisons, he never wanted to take another surname - he considered it a betrayal of his father.

This year, Alexander Nosik will be 50 years old, and he approaches this milestone with a solid filmography, in which at the moment there are already about 60 works. The first popularity came to him in the early 2000s, when he starred in the TV series "Spetsnaz". Among his other notable works are roles in films and TV series "The Return of Mukhtar", "The Fighter", "Big Walk", "Revenge", "Climbers", "Beekeeper". Thanks to good physical training, the actor most often gets the roles of law enforcement officers, special forces and intelligence officers.

Ekaterina and Daria Nosik

The younger brother, Vladimir Nosik, had a son Timofey and twin daughters Ekaterina and Daria. Timofey graduated from the Faculty of Economics of VGIK and started producing. He participated in the creation of the film "Boomer" and the music videos of popular rock bands. Unfortunately, in 2002 his life was cut short - he died in the Karmadon Gorge during the collapse of the Kolka glacier together with the film crew of Sergei Bodrov Jr., who worked on the film "The Messenger".

The father was against his daughters following in his footsteps - he warned them that this profession is ungrateful and dependent. Nevertheless, Ekaterina and Daria became actresses, while the first graduated from GITIS-RATI, and the second from the Schepkinsky School. They began acting in films at the age of 11, and since then they have often worked together on the set. In the filmography of each of them at the moment there are about 30 roles.

The audience did not immediately find out that he was gone: The imperceptible departure of the king of the episode of Valery Nosik.
