The Arcana: The Courtiers as famous soviet movie’s trio
shitty headcanons.. oh shit, here we go again...
My Russian ass wants to tell you more about our greatest movie so I can’t resist this. Today I want to talk about three famous characters of  Leonid Gaidai’s movies as the Courtiers. 
I’ve noticed the similarity when I were writing this post. The fact is that the characters of game are very very similar to the trio of bumbling crooks from the movie “Kidnapping, Caucasian Style” and “Operation Y and Shurik’s Other Adventures”. And here I want to explain why.
1. Volta as the The Coward
Tumblr media
The Coward (who was played by Georgy Vitsin) is timorous. He is coward, soft and weak-willed, his helplessness and infantilism often does not help the common deed. He wraps himself in warm clothes and speaks in a shrill high voice. Always eating something. He is meek and can be easily intimidated and lead on by his friends.
See something familiar? Nervous, hungry, soft, weak-willed, meek... Of course, it’s Volta. 
2. Vlastomil as The Fool
Tumblr media
The Fool (who was played by amazing Yuri Nikulin) is an optimistic and cheerful alcoholic (though it’s more similar to Valerius lol), the owner of easy blushing of the nose. He has a cheerful temper, loves to entertain and sometimes good-naturedly make fun of his friends. He's a little vulnerable.
Well, even though Vlastomil’s nose isn't red, it's still outstanding. Vlastomil is a bony, deathly pale man and the apprentice describes him as looking like a limp noodle with fancy clothes, aaand that’s the way the Fool can be described too.
3. Vulgora as The Pro
Tumblr media
The Pro (who was played by Yevgeny Morgunov) is a massive, strong, confident man. He is the informal leader of this trio, in difficult situations he shows himself as a determined person. He is loud and volatile with a short temper.
A warmonger? Yep, you can call him that. And Vulgora too. I think they could be friends... 
Well, that’s all folks. See you next time on the “I want to find more points of similarity with russian culture” show. Bye!

27 апреля 1927 года родился актер, исполнитель легендарной роли Бывалого в комедиях Леонида Гайдая Евгений Моргунов
http://civilization-history.ru
27 апреля 1927 года родился актер, исполнитель легендарной роли Бывалого в комедиях Леонида Гайдая Евгений Моргунов. Будущий актер рос без отца, уже в 14 лет поступил на работу на московский завод "Фрезер", который изготавливал снаряды для фронта. В 1943 году юный Моргунов написал письмо на имя Сталина, в котором просил зачислить его в театральное училище. На письмо пришёл ответ, и Моргунова действительно зачислили в училище при театре им. Таирова, однако он проучился там всего год и перевёлся во ВГИК на актёрский факультет к Сергею Герасимову. После окончания ВГИК Моргунов играл в Театре киноактера, затем в Малом театре и снова в Театре киноактера. Славу актеру принесла роль предателя Стаховича в экранизации "Молодой гвардии" Александра Фадеева, созданной учителем Моргунова Сергеем Герасимовым. В 60-х годах он стал одним из любимейших актеров страны после роли Бывалого в кинокомедиях Леонида Гайдая "Самогонщики", "Пёс Барбос и необычный кросс", "Операция "Ы" и прочие приключения Шурика", "Кавказская пленница, или новые приключения Шурика". Из-за конфликта с Гайдаем Моргунов очень редко снимался в кино в 70-х и 80-х годах. Его роли были в основном эпизодическими, как, например, в одной из культовых кинокартин "Покровские ворота". В последние годы жизни он много снимался, но главных ролей так и не получал. Скончался Евгений Моргунов 25 июня 1999 года. Похоронен на Кунцевском кладбище Москвы.

Yuri Vladímirovich Nikulin (Demídov, Smolensk, 18 de diciembre de 1921 – Moscú, 21 de agosto de 1997) fue un actor de cine y cómico soviético, uno de los iconos del cine de la URSS en los años 60 y 70, intérprete en numerosas y conocidas películas soviéticas y, desde 1982, director general del Circo de Moscú. Nació el 18 de diciembre de 1921 en Demídov, una pequeña población del área de Smolensk. Sus padres eran asimismo intérpretes y trabajaban en un centro de arte dramático en Demídov, pero en 1925 la familia se trasladó a Moscú. Desde pequeño, Nikulin siempre sintió interés y fascinación por el mundo del circo y especialmente por el humor de los payasos, habiendo decidido en plena adolescencia que de mayor quería dedicarse al mundo del espectáculo en el circo. Sin embargo, sus pretensiones se vieron temporalmente frustradas al ser llamado a filas en el Ejército Rojo en 1939, cuando contaba con 18 años, participando en la Guerra de Invierno contra Finlandia (1939- 1940). Estaba a punto de ser desmovilizado en 1941 cuando en julio el ejército alemán invadió la Unión Soviética, por lo que también combatió en la Gran Guerra Patriótica (1941-1945), sirviendo en una unidad de tanques, sobre todo en el frente de Leningrado. Manteniendo siempre su gran capacidad para los chistes, su primera experiencia como cómico tuvo lugar en 1944, cuando un comisario político de su batallón, impresionado por su talento, le encargó entretener y animar a la tropa. Tras ser desmovilizado definitivamente en 1946, Nikulin intentó, sin éxito, entrar en varias compañías e institutos teatrales, recibiendo un rechazo tras otro, pues los Comités de dichos centros no veían en él dotes interpretativas. Pese a ello logró encontrar trabajo como ayudante secundario en el Circo de Moscú en 1950, tras haber pasado un curso de aprendizaje de dos años, durante el cual conoció a Tatiana Pokrovskaya, que sería su futura mujer, con la que tuvo un hijo, Maxim, en 1956. Nikulin comenzó a actuar como payaso profesional en varias ciudades de la Unión Soviética junto con su amigo Mijaíl Shuydin, con el que formó un dúo cómico que le permitió ganar fama y mejorar sus técnicas y experiencias en lo que él había considerado siempre como un oficio complicado. Durante toda su carrera, Nikulin nunca perdió sus lazos con el mundo del circo, dedicándole 50 años de trabajo. Nikulin fue uno de los pocos artistas que se atrevían a parodiar la aparente perfección del sistema soviético que se intentaba reflejar en todos los ámbitos de la cultura, buscando siempre chistes innovadores que consiguieran burlar a la censura y llegar al público de forma inocente pero sugerente. Su capacidad de crear tanto personajes cómicos como fuertemente dramáticos y profundos, dotándolos de fuerte lirismo, le aportó una gran popularidad y carisma en el entorno del cine, que dejó en 1981, a los 60 años, para dedicarse exclusivamente al mundo al circo. En ese mismo año se convirtió en el principal gerente del Circo de Moscú, y desde 1982 pasó a ser Director general del mismo, cargo que mantuvo hasta su muerte. Pese a dejar el cine, Nikulin hizo diversas apariciones en televisión y durante los años 90 dirigió el programa humorístico Loro Blanco (en ruso Beluyi popugay), en el que varios artistas se reunían y relataban chistes y anécdotas, algunos de los cuales eran del propio Nikulin. Falleció el 21 de Agosto en Moscú a los 75 años tras una operación del corazón, y fue enterrado en el cementerio Novodevichy. Hoy en día, Yuri Nikulin sigue siendo recordado en Rusia como uno de los mayores cómicos que ha conocido el país. Sus películas han envejecido muy bien con el tiempo y siguen siendo grandes estrenos en las cadenas de televisión rusas. Pese a no haberse labrado una carrera fílmica como la de otros conocidos intérpretes soviéticos, el humor de Nikulin ha sido su influencia más importante en los cómicos actuales. El Circo de Moscú lleva el nombre de Yuri Nikulin desde su muerte en su honor.
es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yuri_Nikulin
Yuri Vladimirovich Nikulin (Russian: Юрий Владимирович Никулин; 18 December 1921 – 21 August 1997) was a well-known Russian actor and comedian who starred in many popular films. He was awarded the title of People’s Artist of the USSR in 1973 and Hero of Socialist Labour in 1990. He also received a number of state awards, including the prestigious Order of Lenin, which he received twice in his lifetime. Nikulin was born just after the end of the Russian civil war, in Smolensk in Western Russia. His mother was a garage supervisor and his father a writer of satirical plays – "a profession which may have influenced [Nikulin’s] future career". Nikulin fought in the Red Army in the Winter War with Finland and the World War II with Germany. He reportedly had a comparably "long period of military service, from 1939-46, preparing to be demobilised just when the German invasion of the Soviet Union began in 1941." Nikulin’s style and precise delivery, as well as his mastery of timing and his hilarious masks made him an outstanding comedian. In the ring, Nikulin presented a phlegmatic temperament, slow and unsmiling, and to many in the West his personality was reminiscent of the great silent film comedian Buster Keaton. Rich in mimicry, doleful of expression, Nikulin was hailed as “a brainy clown” outside Russia. Nikulin, affectionately called "Uncle Yura" by Russian children, relied mainly upon his wits to earn his place in history as one of the best clowns of the 20th century. Nikulin first took up clowning in 1944 when a political officer in his battalion, impressed by his repertoire of jokes, ordered him to organize entertainment for the division, which he did with resounding success. Encouraged, once the war ended, Nikulin reportedly "tried unsuccessfully to enter drama college before answering a newspaper advertisement recruiting trainees for the Clown Studio at Moscow’s Tsvetnoy Boulevard Circus." The several acting schools and theatres rejected Nikulin allegedly due to "lacking artistic talent". However, he did find initial success at the Circus and qualified as a fully trained clown in 1950, and never abandoned his links with the circus. He met his wife, Tatyana, there, and in 1982 became the director of the Moscow Circus, a post he held until his death. His son, Maxim, is now a circus administrator. His screen debut came in 1958 with the film The Girl with the Guitar. He appeared in almost a dozen major features, mainly in the 1960s and 1970s, "but his ascent to star status was assured by a handful of short films directed by Leonid Gaidai." The first two of these, Dog Barbos and Unusual Cross and later Bootleggers (Russian: Samogonchiki or The Moonshine Makers, 1961) were also where Nikulin was featured as a character named Fool in The Three Stooges-like trio, along with Georgy Vitsyn as Coward and Yevgeny Morgunov as Experienced. In former Soviet republics he is particularly well known for his role in popular film series about the criminal trio. The series included such films as Operation Y and Other Shurik’s Adventures and Kidnapping Caucassian Style. His most popular films include comedies Brilliantovaia Ruka (Diamond Arm), 12 Stulyev (12 Chairs), Stariki-Razboiniki (Old Hooligans). He was also acclaimed for his roles in Andrey Tarkovsky’s Andrei Rublev and several films on World War II themes (Sergei Bondarchuk’s They Fought for Their Country, Aleksei German’s Twenty Days Without War).[citation needed] Nikulin’s "comic timing never faltered" even in old age and "he had no enemies and mixed with politicians from both the Soviet and post -Soviet eras". He reportedly was close to Moscow mayor Yuri Luzhkov and supported Boris Yeltsin’s re-election campaign." As mentioned, Nikulin was succeeded in his office at the Moscow Circus on Tsvetnoy Boulevard by his son. There is a bronze monument to him in front of the circus, which now bears his name. He is buried in Novodevichy Cemetery in Moscow.[

El Cementerio Novodévichi (en ruso Новодевичье кла́дбище, Novodévichiye kládbishche) es el cementerio más famoso de Moscú, Rusia. Forma parte del conjunto conventual del Monasterio Novodévichi, que data del siglo XVI, declarado en 2004 Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la Unesco.1 Fue inaugurado en 1898, cuando ya existían muchos enterramientos en los muros del monasterio. Uno de los primeros personajes notables en ser enterrado en el cementerio fue Antón Chéjov, cuya tumba es obra de Fiódor Shéjtel. El cementerio alberga más de 27 000 tumbas, entre las que se encuentran las de distinguidos escritores, actores, poetas, científicos, líderes políticos y militares. Se asemeja a un parque, con pequeñas capillas y grandes conjuntos escultóricos. Es un lugar más para visitar en Moscú. Existe la posibilidad de solicitar un plano en la oficina del cementerio.
es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cementerio_Novodévichi
Novodevichy Cemetery (Russian: Новоде́вичье кла́дбище, Novodevichye kladbishche) is the most famous cemetery in Moscow. It lies next to the southern wall of the 16th-century Novodevichy Convent, which is the city’s third most popular tourist site.[1] The cemetery was designed by Ivan Mashkov and inaugurated in 1898.[2] Its importance dates from the 1930s, when the necropoleis of the medieval Muscovite monasteries (Simonov, Danilov, Donskoy) were scheduled for demolition. Only the Donskoy survived the Joseph Stalin era relatively intact. The remains of many famous Russians buried in other abbeys, such as Nikolai Gogol and Sergey Aksakov, were disinterred and reburied at the Novodevichy. A 19th-century necropolis within the walls of the Novodevichy convent, which contained the graves of about 2000 Russian noblemen and university professors, also underwent reconstruction. The vast majority of graves were destroyed. It was at that time that the remains of Anton Chekhov were moved outside the monastery walls. His grave served as the kernel of the so-called "cherry orchard" – a section of the cemetery which contains the graves of Constantin Stanislavski and the leading actors of his company. Under Soviet rule, burial in the Novodevichy Cemetery was second in prestige only to burial in the Kremlin Wall Necropolis. Among the Soviet leaders, only Nikita Khrushchev was buried at the Novodevichy rather than at the Red Square. Since the fall of the Soviet Union, the Kremlin Wall is no longer used for burials and the Novodevichy Cemetery is used for only the most symbolically significant burials. For example, in April 2007, within one week both the first President of the Russian Federation Boris Yeltsin and world-renowned cellist Mstislav Rostropovich were buried there. Today, the cemetery holds the tombs of Russian authors, musicians, playwrights, and poets, as well as famous actors, political leaders, and scientists.[3][4] More than 27,000 are buried at Novodevichy. There is scant space for more burials. A new national cemetery is under construction in Mytishchi north of Moscow. The cemetery has a park-like ambience, dotted with small chapels and large sculpted monuments. It is divided into the old (Divisions 1–4), new (Divisions 5–8) and newest (Divisions 9–11) sections; maps are available at the cemetery office.[5] en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Novodevichy_Cemetery en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burials_at_the_Novodevichy_Cemetery

Трус, Балбес, Бывалый (The Coward, the Bonehead, and the Experienced One) The trio of comic anti-heroes who became popular in the Soviet Union during the 60s and 70s. They either concocted strange, illegal and funny plots or were part of other people's screwball operations. Their adventures abstained from moral didacticism, instead they mostly focused on the absurd actions of each character. Georgy Vitsin portrayed the Coward, aptly named as the character was the nervous, sentamental, hypochondriac. Yuri Nikulin played the Bonehead/Dumbass; an optimistic,easy going, cheeky drinker. Yevgeny Morgunov was The Experienced One, the most professional one out of the trio and as such the leader; large, strong, and confident. They first appeared on screen in Leonid Gaidai's Пес Барбос и необычный кросс (Barbos the dog and the unusual cross) and Самогонщики (Bootleggers). They continued to make appearances in Gaidai's films and a few other famous Soviet directors (such as Eldar Ryazanov and Yevgeny Karelov). Some of their work: The Caucasian Prisoner (with English subtitles) Operation Y and Shurik's Other Adventures (with English Subtitles) Barbos the Dog and the Unusual Cross Bootleggers
