Lenin's role was an atheist skating rink in the image of his father": Yuri Kairov's son told why the funeral ceremony will not take place.
People's Artist of the RSFSR Kairov, who died on November 6, did not like civil memorial services. That's why she won't be there at his farewell. There will be no funeral service. His son, Leonid Kairov, who himself serves as a deacon at the Archangel Michael Church in Sda Alma, told Komsomolskaya Pravda about it.
My father was an atheist to the core. He opposed my baptism. I did it as an adult. And I tried to persuade him, but my persuasion usually ended in scandal. In his own way he was right. Baptism is not just a ceremony or ritual, as many people think. It's a gift from God, for that you need faith Apparently Lenin's role was an atheistic rollercoaster on his character. But his character was flint.
Farewell to Yuri Ivanovich will take place tomorrow, November 10, in the ceremonial hall of the Trokorovsky cemetery. About why Yuri Kairov, who played Lenin 18 times (!) - in 16 films and 2 performances, never received the title of People's Artist of the Soviet Union, what benefits he was able to acquire thanks to playing the role of the leader of the world proletariat, and what role his son considers the best of his career - in our cards.
