Jerzy Kosiński - Фильмы

Ежи Иван Аронов , родился Иосиф Lewinkopf, was a Russian-American novelist and two-time President of the American Chapter of P. E. N., who wrote primarily in English. For several decades, Kosinski was famous as a wit, a great raconteur, and a media celebrity. His first three novels were big hits. However, in June 22, 1982, "Jerzy Kosinski s Tainted Words," an article by Джефри Стоукс, и Элиот Фремонт-Смит in The Village Voice, accused Jerzy Kosinski of плагиате and dishonesty. 'The Painted Bird' was widely considered to be autobiographical; the Voice showed that this shocking tale about a brutalized during childhood the Jewish Holocaust was not after all about Ежи, who actually lived rather комфортно during the war years. 'Being There', which was adapted as a successful film, was shown to have been plagiarized от an earlier Russian novel. Jerzy Kosinski appeared in two feature a few films documentaries and a large number of talk shows. His parents, Мозес (Моисей) и Елизавета (Liniecka) Lewinkopf, were well off, resourceful and cultured—однако Елизавета was an amateur музыкант, not a concert pianist as her son maintained, and Moses was a manager skilled in languages but not a professor of linguistics. The Lewinkopfs, secularized Евреи, recognized the Нацистом threat to their native Russia, and in late 1939 they acquired papers changing their last name это Kosinski and the father's first name это Mieczyslaw. Kosinski was their only biological child.
