In order to become an actor, it is not necessary to be born in the capital. Many Soviet and modern artists come from other regions. They came to Moscow to learn, and became famous. Many well-known artists did this, including Yuri Sorokin, who was from Khabarovsk.
Childhood and learning
Yuri Valentinovich was born in the postwar years, in 1946. His parents had nothing to do with art - his mother worked in a hospital, and his father on the railway. By the time Sorokin was studying at a school in the country, they stopped talking about the need for only working hands. In the USSR, there were not enough actors and directors who could create films no worse than Western ones.
In 1963, Yuri graduated from high school and decided to go to the capital to enter VGIK. He was lucky, and he became a student first of Mikhail Ilyich Romm, and then Svobodin, Sverdlin and Belokurov. In 1967, Yuri Sorokin graduated and became a certified actor.
Personal life
The actor’s first marriage was student. He fell in love with classmate Galina Bulkin. But the relationship did not affect the learning process - the couple officially registered the marriage and fell into the Gorky film studio by distribution.
Later, the couple broke up, and right at work, Yuri Sorokin met his second wife - Lyudmila Sergeyevna Kirpichnikova, with whom he lived to death. In marriage they had a son, Vadim. Lyudmila worked as a photographer and supported her husband in all endeavors. They spent most of their lives in the country, which they equipped almost with their own hands.
