Demanded artists are not only performers of the main roles. A striking example of this was the actor Mikhail Bocharov. He played characters characteristic and vibrant so that often the audience remembered them better than the main characters.
Nothing is known about the brothers or sisters of Mikhail Timofeevich. Therefore, it is believed that he was the only child in the family. During his film career, he played in sixty films, including episodic roles.
Way to destination
The biography of the future artist began in 1919. The boy was born in the village of Grigoryevka, Tula region on September 12. With creativity, Michael's parents were not connected. His father worked at Mosgosnabprodtorg, his mother was engaged in the house.
A gifted boy dreamed of an artistic career from an early age. His abilities did not disregard those around him. Bocharov graduated from the capital's school. He decided to get further education at the school named after Shchepkin. The family made the decision of the son in pieces, but Mikhail, contrary to all objections, became a student of the course of Konstantin Zubov.
In 1940, a certified actor went to work in the theater of Ashgabat. A few months later he returned to the capital, where he joined the troupe of the Mossovet Theater. With the outbreak of war, the artist went to the front. After a serious injury in 1943, he was left in the army as the leader of the road forces ensemble. The artist returned to Moscow after demobilization.
Bocharov dreamed about cinema since childhood. However, the directors of the main characters in the person of the applicant did not notice, but also did not refuse the talented applicant. On the set, Michael first appeared in the fifties. He was offered episodic roles, but in such numbers that he never remained without work. Bocharov did not leave work at the theater. On the stage of "Romen" and the Gogol Theater, he played leading roles.
The type of artist was ideal for "people of the people." Usually he played such heroes. But no less often, his characters turned out to be criminal dealers. The resulting work was no less brilliant. At first, the artist did not appear in the credits. However, everything changed in 1956. In the film "Night Patrol" in 1957, the district policeman became the artist's hero. And in the drama "On the Roads of War" in 1959 he brilliantly played Sedykh.
Bright work
In the cult film "Adjutant of His Excellency" about the adventures of the scout Koltsov during the Civil War, Mikhail Timofeevich played the overseer.
Director Vladimir Menshov, who shot the famous film “Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears” in 1979, Bocharova invited Boris Alexandrovich to play. The character turned out to be surprisingly realistic. An indignantly embarrassed hero appeared in the frame with a request to transfer him to a group of younger ladies in a dating club.

The epic covers the period from 1902 to 1960. Heroes survived the revolution, and saw the formation of a new system, and participated in dramas of the twentieth century. They constantly had to choose between hatred and love.
In the series "Young Russia", the corporal was the hero of Mikhail Timofeevich, and in the "Hussar of the Flying Squadron" he played a man. In 1980, the film "Father and Son" was released. In it, the artist appeared in the image of Ivan the Soldier.
In the fabulously satirical comedy "To the Rescue, Brothers!" the hero of the actor was the boyar. The film begins with the fact that the boyars decide to urgently marry their elderly king. The ruler, supposedly completely in agreement with the opinions of his close associates, chose from the overseas territories for himself, but he sent for her three close associates with the conviction that they would not be able to fulfill his order.
