Alexey Chadov is a young but already well-known Moscow actor famous for his recent performance as Spiker in 'Bigga Than Ben', a screen version of the book of the same name about two young vagrants from Moscow who arrive in London with only £400 with hopes of earning a fortune. The book was published in 2000 and was the work of Igor Shulinsky, current editor-in-chief of Time Out Moscow.
What’s your opinion on Moscow?
Extremely noisy and busy. Every day something changes. One day you’re walking past a typical Old Town street with small cosy houses, tomorrow there’s a construction site. The same thing about people. Maybe it’s too rough, but I still like it. Feature continuesAdvertisementYou were in a recent film about London…
Yeah, it’s about two guys who wanted to 'bend over' London and earn some money. Unlike them, I didn’t earn anything.
What do you think about Time Out?
I saw it on every newsstand in London. As far as I understand, it’s a local entertainment bible. I wish Moscow’s edition to become something similar.
