The fate of the film could have been completely different.
Vera Alentova was a stunning beauty when she played in the wonderful but tragic film “Wishing Time”. Only the lazy did not watch this tape in the USSR. But almost none of the audience knows how a wonderful movie was shot and what sacrifices were made for the release of the picture.
It is difficult to imagine anyone other than the wife of Vladimir Menshov as the main character. So organically and brightly she fit into the frame. However, in her place, and in the place of Anatoly Papanov, there should have been completely different artists.
Yuli Raizman at the time of the release of “Time of Desires” was already 80 years old, and the film was his last work. According to the director’s intention, almost any actress could play the main character Svetlana Vasilievna.
So Alentova was simply lucky: no special claims were made against her. But for the main character, Reizman had a clear plan – Georgy Zhzhenov. But at the last moment, the artist could not, so I had to replace him with Papanov, writes the author of the Citizen Zen channel.
