His brightest work in Russian cinema is in the drama of Konstantin Khabensky “Sobibor”, where the actor played the commandant of the Nazi camp of Karl Frentzel's childhood, youth, family Christoph Guy Denis Lambert was born in the spring of the year in the family of Georges Lamber-Lamon and Yolandi de Peruzci living in New York.

Father, a Jew, was a diplomat at the UN, mother - a famous psychoanalyst. The boy had double, franco-American citizenship, but at home they almost did not speak English-the family was franchoye. The boy was two years old when the family moved to Geneva, where most of the childhood of the future actor passed. Parents gave their son to the boarding school "Florimont", where problems immediately began.

Christopher, who suffered from terrible myopia from birth, wore glasses, and also hated sport, which is why classmates awarded him unflattering nicknames. Christopher Lambert in his youth, he found salvation in comics about the adventurer Corto Maltese and reporter Tintin: “They gave me the strength to survive in childhood. I was captured and inspired by their adventures, imagination and tireless optimism.

” But the key role in the fate of Christopher played the film by Sergio Leone “Once in the Wild West”: ... The first time I watched it in childhood and since then I have been reviewing regularly. It was he who created the movie for me. If not for Sergio Leone, I might have not become an actor. It would be a diplomat or musician ... But in childhood, my parents and I lived in Geneva and played at home scenes from the performances that we looked before in the theater.

I liked this and my parents and me and at twelve years old already played in school performances. Nevertheless, Christopher did not immediately come to the profession of the actor. At 16, he and his family moved to Paris. There, the young man graduated from school, served in the French army for a year, where he went at the insistence of his father, after which he received a job on the London exchange - again on the advice of his parents, who could not seriously relate to his dreams of acting.

Acting career luck came to Christopher along with the offer of the English director Hugh Hudson to play the main role in the film adaptation of the novel by Edgar Rais Burrose “Greykov: the legend of Tarzan, the lord of monkeys”. Christopher's partner in the picture became Andy MacDowell. Christopher Lambert, in the role of Tarzan, Christopher spoke poorly in English, but that was not required-there was little replica of a man who grew up side by side with monkeys.

But because of his myopia, he experienced much more and was sure before listening that he would be refused. I had glasses with thick glasses, I was thin as a match, ”Lambert later recalled. However, it was this feature that helped Christopher get a role. When he took off his glasses during the listening, the director Hugh Hudson was fascinated: "Due to the fact that Christopher Blizorok, when he took off his glasses, did not see anything and it seemed that he was looking through us somewhere into the distance." The myopia helped Lambert to get a role in the future Christopher more than once faced problems due to vision: he starred a lot in militants and action-packed films, he fundamentally performed the tricks himself, and could not wear contact lenses-their eyes rejected them.

Sometimes I had to work on some particularly dynamic scene is doubly more diligent, remembering the movements of not only their own, but also partners.
