People » Ljudi | 47 U spomenaru čuvam skoro ceo vek I preserve almost an entire century in my scrapbook Šmeker, Dorćolac, boem i jedan od najvremešnijih aktivnih evropskih glumaca, Vlasta Velisavljević je pre 94 godine rođen u Beogradu. Pamti ljude i događaje koji su upisani u biogra ju prestonice, a ovo je samo mali komad njegovih dragocenih sećanja… A cool guy, Dorćol native, bohemian and one of the most timeless active European actors, Vlasta Velisavljević was born in Belgrade 94 years ago. He recalls people and events that are inscribed in the biography of the capital, and here is just a small excerpt of his precious memories… Tekst/Words: Ana Vodinelić Fotografije/Photography: Vladimir Živojinović, Privatna arhiva The year Nušić departed At the beginning of 1938 I was preparing a role for “A Trip Around the World”, in a play adapted for the Roda Children’s eatre, which was founded by Gita Predić, the daughter of BranislavNušić. Roda formed the foundations of today’s BoškoBuha eatre. On the daywhenour Belgrade premiere was scheduled, 19th January, Branislav Nušić passed away, and the premiere performance was postponed. e National eatre hung a black banner on the building as a signofmourning for the greatwriter. e text of our play was adapted for child audiences, because Nušić – as the author of the original playof the samename for adults – had allowed his daughter to do so. I sawNušić for the first and last time in a hospital bed in his house, just before he departed. Liberation inVoždovac I awaited the liberationof Belgrade at the endofWorld War II inVoždovac. at part of the citywas liberatedfirst. A rural population lived in Voždovac at that time, and the boys were fierce, so I never got into conflicts with themas a native of Dorćol. Classmates inABetter Life I was in my student class with Olivera Marković and Pepi Laković. When we were divided into classes as studentswe became plotters, butwe lived like one for all. is picture is a still from the shooting of the TV series A Better Life. It is one of our rare joint pictures where we found ourselves in the same frame and on the same project for the first time after many years. Godina kada je otišaoNušić Početkom1938. spremao samulogu za Put oko sveta u predstavi adaptiranoj za dečje pozorište Roda, koje je osnovala Gita Predić, ćerka Branislava Nušića. Roda je temelj današnjeg Pozorišta Boško Buha. Na dan kad je zakazana naša beogradska premijera, 19. januara, preminuo je Branislav Nušić, a premijera je odložena. Narodno pozorište okačilo je crni or na zgradu u znak žalosti za velikimpiscem. Tekst naše predstave bio je adaptiran za dečju publiku jer jeNušić ćerki to dozvolio kao autor istoimenog originalnog komada za odrasle. Nušića samprvi i poslednji put videoubolničkoj postelji u njegovoj kući neposredno pre nego što je otišao. Oslobođenje na Voždovcu Na Voždovcu sam dočekao oslobođenje Beograda u Drugom svetskom ratu. Taj deo grada je prvi oslobođen. U to vreme na Voždovcu je živelo seosko stanovništvo, a momci su bili žestoki, pa se kao rođeni Dorćolac nikad nisam kačio s njima. Klasići u Boljemživotu S OliveromMarković i Pepijem Lakovićem bio sam na klasi. Kad smo se kao studenti podelili, postali smo kao zaverenici, ali smo živeli kao jedan. Na ovoj slici je kadar sa snimanja TV serije Bolji život. To je jedna od naših retkihzajedničkih slika, tada smo seprvi put posle mnogo godina našli u istom kadru i na istom projektu.
