OPIS

Boris Androvski ma już doyć życia jako mnich benedyktyński, więc opuszcza klasztor i wyrusza do Afryki Północnej, w nadziei na nowy początek. Tam spotyka podobnie rozczarowaną szarą codziennością Domini Enfilden, której niedawno zmarł ojciec. Oboje wpadają w wir miłości, choć Domini nic nie wie o przeszłości Borisa. Kiedy Legia Cudzoziemska przecina im drogę, sekret Borisa zostaje zagrożony.

 

RYSZARD BOLESŁAWSKI
Born in 1889 in Dębowa Góra, Poland. Died in 1937 in Hollywood, USA. Theatre and film director, actor and teacher. He graduated from the Tver Cavalry Officers School. He trained as an actor at the First Studio of the Moscow Art Theatre under Konstantin Stanislavski and his assistant Leopold Sulerzhitsky. During World War I, Boleslawski fought as a cavalry lieutenant on the tsarist Russian side until the fall of the Russian Empire. He left Russia after the October Revolution of 1917 for his native Poland, where he directed his first movies. As his birth name (Bolesław Ryszard Srzednicki) was difficult to pronounce, he took the name Ryszard Bolesławski.

His “Miracle at the Vistula” was a semi-documentary about the miraculous victory of the Poles at the Vistula River over the superior Soviet Russian forces during the Polish-Soviet War of 1919-1921. In 1922, he acted in Die Gezeichneten, a German silent film directed by Danish director Carl Theodor Dreyer. In the 1920s, he made his way to New York City, where, now known as “Richard Boleslavsky” (the English spelling of his name), he began to teach Stanislavski’s ‘system’ (which, in the US, developed into Method acting) with fellow émigré Maria Ouspenskaya. In 1923, he founded the American Laboratory Theatre in New York. Among his students were Lee Strasberg, Stella Adler and Harold Clurman, who were all founding members of the Group Theatre (1931–1940), the first American acting ensemble to utilize Stanislavski’s techniques.

Offered a contract to direct Hollywood films, Boleslavsky made several significant films with some of the major stars of the day, until his death a few weeks short of his 48th birthday, on January 17, 1937. He is interred in the Calvary Cemetery, East Los Angeles.

For his contribution to the motion picture industry, Boleslavsky has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 7021 Hollywood Blvd.
