Biography

Childhood
Sergey Bodrov was born on December 27, 1971 in Moscow, Soviet Union. His father was a famous film director, Sergey Bodrov, and his mother Valentina Nikolaevna was a fine art expert. Sergey Bodrov Jr. believed that "childhood is the most important and the most amazing time in life." and what you'll become happens in the first sixteen years".

Bodrov wrote about his early years and events which influenced his world view in a "Composition on the Theme: Eight Events which Influenced Me, or How I Grew Up to Be a Good Person."


Education
Sergey Bodrov attended the special French language School № 1265, where in December 2012 a memorial plaque was installed in his memory.

Bodrov wanted to enroll in the Gerasimov Institute of Cinematography, but his father advised him that "cinema is a passion, and if you don't feel it you should either wait for it or forget about it forever." Instead, in 1989 he enrolled in the art history program in the History Department of Moscow State University, graduating with Honors and remaining for postgraduate studies, although he already knew that he would not work in a museum or library. In his own words, at the university he "learned to see beauty in the simple things around us". After becoming a famous actor and television host he completed and defended (in 1998) his graduate thesis entitled "Architecture in Venetian Renaissance Painting" and received the Candidate of Science degree.


In 1991, while still a student, Bodrov studied art in Italy, where he found work as a lifeguard and earned money to support his travels around the country. When he was asked in an interview if his education was useful in his life, he answered: Of course. So you come to a city. What do you usually know about it? That there is a central square, some shops... And I know there is a painting in one of the museums and that you can spend the whole day in front of. And this day is added to your life.
