Valentin Gaft himself wrote about his own sharp character as follows:
Now Valentin Iosifovich is preparing for the 85th anniversary (the actor was born on September 2, 1935). The result of his many years of creative career has become not only a hundred roles in films and about fifty in theaters, but also several published books and collections of poetry.
