Artur Smolyaninov: "His whole life is a special operation" // "Tell Gordeeva"
Artur Smolyaninov is a theater and film actor who has not given big interviews for many years. In the current situation, Smolyaninov decided that it is impossible and unbearable to keep silent. We met and talked about movies, theater, music, childhood, volunteering in the hospital, faith in God, and a conversation with Putin after the premiere of the film "9 Company". And, of course, about why Arthur was silent before.
