45 years ago, the twins Vladimir and Yuri Torsuev were on the set of Konstantin Bromberg’s film The Adventures of Electronics. They studied at an elite metropolitan school, lived in a house on Frunzenskaya Embankment next to Alexandra Pakhmutova and Nikolai Dobronravov, went in for music, sports, bathed in abundance and in parental love (dad worked as secretary of the Komsomol Central Committee) and at the age of 12 became movie stars. The brothers are still trying to repeat the previous triumph.
All attempts to get serious professions (Vladimir studied as a philosopher, lawyer, publisher, and Yuri – as an African specialist and translator) were unsuccessful. Blond twins were expelled from universities due to violation of discipline and poor progress. But they didn’t give up.
They also failed to become businessmen: they were threatened by bandits, harassed by creditors, and enterprises had to be closed. As a result, the Torsuevs returned to their parents’ house, took their children’s rooms and found themselves in the distant past, when robots, artificial intelligence, the World Wide Web were fantastic.
Head of the house
Everything in Vladimir and Yuri’s apartment is Soviet. Furniture, household items, souvenirs. Not a single modern thing. Except, perhaps, a foreign radio, which they attached to the ceiling instead of a chandelier.
The brothers dress up in jackets and sweaters in retro style. Plus in sweatpants with suspenders – like their heroes Elektronika and Syroezhkin in the film. And they bought the dog exactly like the same movie – the Airedale Terrier. Rassy is only one and a half years old, but he has already won a number of exhibitions and has become a legend in his area.
Our dog is very thoroughbred. Very expensive. Everyone wants puppies from him – the queue is already huge. And we don’t have time yet – she’s filming in films, ”Vladimir Torsuev told Express Gazeta.
The dog follows the commands of the owner every other time. In the house, he is the main one, and this can be seen with the naked eye. Controls all household members, as well as a cat and another dog – Tim.
The premiere will soon take place with the participation of the Torsuevs – “Brother 3”.
– The picture has nothing to do with the films of Alexei Balabanov with Sergei Bodrov, except for the criminal genre, – says Vladimir. – The director of the film – a cult personality – Valery Pereverzev. His wife, the titled beauty Yulia Pereverzeva, is a producer and performer of one of the roles. I play a very bad person – a crime boss, and my brother – a general. The film starred Western stars – Olivier Siou, Eric Roberts, Costas Mandylor and others.
Yuri Torsuev starred in two more high-profile crime films – Black Spring and Fisher. In the series regarding a maniac, he got a difficult role – the father of the victim of this monster.
Why is the robot getting old?
The brothers have been married several times and have children. In the summer of 2020, Vladimir married for the fifth time to a charming girl named Lilia. But Yuri is still in free search.
– About me and my brother constantly come up with all sorts of fables – says the first. – One of them is that we have a sea of \u200b\u200bwomen, and that we are a kind of ladies’ man. Yes, I had more marriages than Yuri, and the fifth one turned out to be happy. I was just looking for what I wanted.
And finally, the long-awaited news – the continuation of the film “Adventures of Electronics” to be!
– The “pilot” is already ready (trial series. – M. B.). Directed by Vladimir Pasichnik. At one time he shot the picture “The Way” with Oleg Taktarov, Nikolai Valuev, gymnast Irina Chashchina, Vladimir revealed the secret. – There I am still a robot, and my brother is Syroezhkin, who, according to the plot, became a people’s artist. He has children. Already adults. And the children have a love line.
– But how might a robot grow and grow old?
– Professor Gromov has thought of everything. Electronics is a biorobot, which means it is subject to change.
But nothing threatens the electronic dog Rassy. She has been living for more than 40 years, does not age and does not get sick. Such an invention would be the envy of all dog breeders in the world.
But the family pet of the Rassy twins is more earthy – it does not tolerate the smell of alcohol and keeps the owners in good shape. Previously, the brothers had such a sin – they might abuse it. Now they claim that they have become teetotalers. When last year Vladimir slipped near the entrance, fell, broke his nose and landed in Sklif, they gossiped that he was drunk, but Torsuev vouches that this is so.
