On the Premier Of “Desire” on TV
The film “Desire” reached the head line of the recent TV charts (rating up to 8.9%, with the share of audience up to 22.3%). The romantic quadro ensemble was played immaculately by Maria Mironova, Ekaterina Vilkova, Anatoliy Beliy and Alexander Baluyev. The wide public was almost unanimous in its warm attitudes toward the film, which is a rare instance today.
“Thanks a lot for the film!!! It pulls a string in the soul, that was once firmly forgotten or was long hidden inside… There is no one to blame, and not a single character is bad there,” – one of the forum’s readers comments.
“I watched the film in my mom’s company. She was mostly worrying for the character played by Ekaterina Vilkova. I was rather a supporter of Masha Mironova – she is so nice, that one can take pleasure by simply watching her clever charms. What I would really say to that – “Well, good film-makers do exist even in our times.” The majority of the reviews aired the similar feelings at the Inet forum.

A historical cinedrama under a working title “Fourtseva. The Legend of Ekaterina” is under production currently.
GP Group, in partnership with TV CHANNEL I, is currently working on a new TV-movie project. This is going to be a multi-episode cinedrama dedicated to Ekaterina Furtseva, one of the most outstanding leaders in the Soviet history.
Her life was notably rich in events. Her life path - from being a “cinderella” weaver from a small distant village up to her becoming a Governor of Moscow, the member of the USSR Government, and country’s the Minister of Culture - was so meandering, unpredictable and dramatic, and her death was so mysterious, that it seems difficult now to distinguish her genuine biography from rumours, fantasies and legends.
All through the twelve episodes of the film, the audience will have a chance to indulge in the development of the main intrigue, and to emotionally follow up the story of a naturally strong, independent and audacious woman who fought to construe her simple female happiness, to love and to be loved in turn, to build a family of her own, and to find true friends. As the story carries on, the spectators will see how the heroine’s attempts eventually came nowhere because of her restless strive for power and leadership.
A whole bouquet of events, whether tragiñ or joyful, which took place both in Katia’s private life and in the life of the entire country during almost five decades; complicated relationships with husbands, her mother and her daughter; encounters and break-ups with those men that she happened to shed a womanly love on, and those who compounded her ‘party comrades gang’; her own treasons, delusions and blunders; her triumphs and defeats – all this kaleidoscope will be highlighted in a lively historical dramatic reconstruction.
The series presents to us an opportunity to dive into the astonishing times, and to explore an unbelievably bright character acting in the limelight against a background of various leading historical figures, such as Stalin and Khruschev, Zhukov and Brezhnev, Oleg Yefremov and Liudmila Zykina.
Not yet uncovering the names of people who are going to take part in the project, we can assure the spectators that all the lead roles, as well as the second line ones, are given out to the most popular artists and stars which all of you have long known and loved. A number of freshmen to the filmmaking business will also appear on stage, who, we positively believe, will be able to gain wide popularity due to this project in the near future.
