On January 11, the theater and film actor, People's Artist of Russia celebrates his 45th birthday Konstantin Khabensky … He does not like to communicate with journalists and rarely gives interviews, but his colleagues and friends willingly share their impressions of working together in the films "Deadly Power", "Women's Property", "On the Move", "Admiral", "Method", etc.
Konstantin Khabensky, together with Mikhail Porechenkov and Mikhail Trukhin, began their acting career in the late 1990s. on the stage of the Theater. Lensovet, they played in the performances of director Yuri Butusov, who retained many memories of those times: “His“fluidity”, variability is a rare quality. Sometimes a handsome man - you can't take your eyes off. And then the freak is terrible. Now a child, then a man. Either a sage, or a fool at all … The most powerful ambition … The eye burns with terrible jealousy when someone else wins, even nearby, in one performance … He is a closed person, it is impossible to achieve anything from him. Something in itself is saving, saving. But I like it. There should be a secret in a good artist … He is a wonderful partner, this is recognized by everyone who worked with him … He does not always know how to hide his mind. And this is what betrays his naivety."
Film director D. Meskhiev admits: “Of course, it's nice to know that it was you who discovered a good actor, - Kostya Khabensky starred in the title role in my film“Women's Property”for the first time. At the same time, I am convinced that Khabensky, and Yevlanov, and other artists who starred with me then would have become famous anyway. It was lucky for me that I met Kostya and not him. After all, the audience needs the actor Khabensky, not me, the director Meskhiev. Actors discover themselves, and directors only help them."
Actor Mikhail Porechenkov became not only a partner in theater and cinema, but also a close friend of Khabensky: “I am still grateful to LGITMiK for giving me not only a profession, but also friendship with Kostya and Misha Trukhin. We have long been not just friends, but rather relatives. Olga, my wife, is the godmother of Vanya Khabensky and Sonya Trukhina. Of course, we are very busy, but we take every opportunity to spend time together."
Mikhail Trukhin, with whom Khabensky played both in the theater and in the cinema (“Deadly Power”), adds: “Since then, Kostya and I have experienced a lot together: at one time we looked after the same girl, we drank vodka from one glass, shared roles. As a stage partner he is very good, you can rely on him in a difficult situation."
Director A. Rogozhkin recalls: “When Khabensky appeared at the casting of“Deadly Force”, I was hooked on his face. It was intelligent, just such a hero for the main role of the investigator Igor Plakhov was needed."
Director F. Yankovsky considers Khabensky a special actor: “When I first read the script for“On the Move”, I immediately understood: in order to make this film, the main role needs to be found an actor who can play not only relationships with other characters, but also a relationship with oneself. It seems to me that Konstantin Khabensky is just such an actor."
Actress Elizaveta Boyarskaya, with whom Khabensky worked in several films, admits: “We met on the set of“The Admiral”, only then there was a joint work in“Irony of Fate. Continuation”. We immediately got a pair, and this is very rare. … Sometimes it is very difficult with partners: you look into the eyes and bump into a wall…. And with Kostya it happened that from the first moment, from the first glance, when I looked at him not as at Kostya, but as at Kolchak, I literally drowned in him. I drowned in it for the entire time we were shooting the film. It was a complete mutual understanding, and sometimes there was no need for any explanations - everything was clear, without words … It was easy to play love with him."
Director Yuri Bykov, who worked with Khabensky in the series Method, says: “I can say that I was very lucky with him, because Konstantin is a very delicate person. He listened to my opinion, did not impose his own, and if he wanted to correct something, he did it very carefully”.
Theater director G. Cherepanov writes: “Kostya is a separate song. He is a workaholic, always on one hundred percent, works with full dedication in any state: with a temperature, after a flight or night shooting. And offers dozens of options for one small episode."
He has his own code of honor: the rules of life of one of the most humane actors in Russian cinema, Konstantin Khabensky

550 salaries for "Intergirl", or How much did Soviet actors and directors receive
Salaries in the USSR were regulated at the state level. The creative industry was no exception.
