It is impossible to imitate Wacław Kowalski, who played Kaźmierz Pawlak in three parts of the film “Themselves”. The actor has created a great character and that's it.
Adam Bobeck, who plays the young Pawlak in the new film, had a very difficult task. When he won the acting gig, he accepted the challenge and faced the legend.
Was Adam Bobek afraid to meet Pawlak, the film's hero?
– There was no fear, even though I knew deep down that we would be compared. But we had a great foundation, namely the script, which, like all parts, was written by Andrej Mularczyk – Adam Bobek tells us and admits that before filming, he watched each part of the film “Themselves” a dozen times or so.
So what is the hardest thing? Did he succeed in mastering the oriental dialect and Pawlak's style in the film?
– I admit that it was not easy, and it was especially difficult to control the laughter, as it was difficult to find Pawlak's laugh, because Wakław Kowalski had this wonderful laugh, different on every occasion. Well, I had a lot of work to do, says the actor, who remembers his work on set with great fondness.
– We shot outdoors, including: in Tokarnia in Kielce at the open-air museum, that's always more interesting and the trips help the team work together. He was really cool and funny at times. One time our cow got angry and broke all the fences around her, but not the required ones. Well, she's starting to become a star – laughs the actor and invites viewers to the cinemas.
– I think the film was a success. It is a charming and entertaining film. I hope that viewers will be satisfied. We know that people were skeptical about this production, but I think they will give us a chance, go to the cinemas and see that it is worth it – says Adam Bobek.
