The eight-part musical series “Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears. It’s Just Beginning” based on the cult Soviet film was filmed in the Moskino cinema park. Some scenes for the project were filmed in the center of the capital. The work was supported by the Moscow film cluster and the Moskino film commission.
The story of three friends
Vladimir Menshov’s melodrama Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears was released in 1979 and won an Oscar. The new series also centers on the fate of three friends who come to Moscow in the early 2000s in search of love and happiness. However, viewers will see not just a modern version of the Soviet film, but a completely new story that promises to surprise everyone.
One of the main roles in the series was played by actor Andrei Maksimov, familiar to viewers from the images of villains in the projects “The Word of a Boy. Blood on the Asphalt” and “Fisher”. He not only appears on screen in a new role, but also sings.
“I am very interested in how the audience will perceive me, not only in a positive capacity, but also in a singing one. Playing a positive character is just as interesting as playing a negative one. In my opinion, we managed to create an ambiguous image of the hero, and I hope that the audience will relate to him. In the cinema park, I really enjoyed working in “Cowboy Town”. I think that on this site everyone can feel like a child and imagine themselves as some kind of character in a western. All the interiors are first-class, and this is delightful,” said Andrey Maksimov.
The main roles in the new series were also played by Ivan Yankovsky, Anastasia Talyzina, Maria Kamova, Tina Stoyilkovich, Ruzil Minekaev and other actors. The directors were Olga Dolmatovskaya and Zhora Kryzhovnikov.
According to Olga Dolmatovskaya, one of the main themes in the project is female friendship that has lasted through the years, where each heroine finds herself with age. Several scenes for the series were filmed in the Moskino cinema park on the sites of Cowboy Town and Provincial Towns of Europe. These sets made a huge impression with their detailed development, solidity and realism. In addition to the cinema park, filming took place on several sites in Moscow: on Kotelnicheskaya Embankment, Pushkinskaya Square and in the Ostankino television center. The creators of the series felt a big difference – it was much easier to organize filming on the equipped territory of the cinema park.
All approvals in record time
The filming of the final scene of the series took place on Tverskoy Boulevard. 200 dancers, 100 actors and 100 crew members took part in the work.
The most complex filming in the city center from an organizational point of view was coordinated in less than a month.
“The Moscow Film Commission managed to do the almost impossible – conduct mass filming without disrupting the main life processes in the city center. In record time, a series of complex approvals were made with the city departments of trade, transport, health care, housing and utilities, mass events, as well as the prefecture. As a result, it was possible not only to film all the necessary scenes, but also to create a wonderful image of Moscow in the project,” the press service of the Moscow film cluster noted.
Most of the filming took place near the Russian Academic Youth Theatre, the high-rise building on Kotelnicheskaya Embankment, the Ostankino TV Centre and Pushkinskaya Square, where one of the most striking episodes of the series was filmed, involving 200 dancers and more than 100 extras.
To recreate the atmosphere of the 2000s, the artists studied costumes and fashion of the time. More than 250 outfits were sewn for the filming, and about a thousand more complex stage costumes were found in clothing rental stores.
The project was created by the film companies Vodorod and NMG Studio with the support of the Internet Development Institute (ANO IRI). The series will be released in the online cinema Wink, and the TV premiere will take place on the STS TV channel.
