A Completely Different Story... The Autobiography of Leonid Kanevsky

It is hard to find a person who does not know the signature phrase of Leonid Semyonovich "But that is a completely different story..." In his 65-year career, he has shared numerous stories with us (both as a host and as an artist). But one story has yet to be told — his story. This book will finally reveal it to us.
From warm memories of childhood in post-war Moscow and a tumultuous youth in theater backstage to triumphs on stage and screen.

The book comes alive through touching comments from relatives and close ones, who add personal touches and amusing anecdotes. And almost a hundred photographs from the family archive — from black-and-white childhood snapshots to behind-the-scenes shots from legendary shoots — allow the reader to peek into the very heart of this amazing story.

These are the memoirs of a happy man, for whom both the stage and home have always been places of strength and joy.
