IMDbProStarmeterSee rank
Bozidar Oreskovic, Croatian actor (Zagreb, August 21, 1942 - Kozjaca, July 9, 2010) was doyen of the Croatian National Theater in Zagreb, and the public remembers him from numerous film and television roles. His appearance, the persuasiveness of theatrical testimony and the ability to transform himself into the most diverse roles formed him, as an extremely interesting actor, whose every exit on the stage was particularly noted. With extraordinary recitative temperament, striking appearance, peculiar color of the voice and acting expression, he contributed to the fullness and intuition of the characters he interpreted and to the entire theatrical representation in which he participated.

He completed his studies at the Zagreb Academy of Dramatic Arts in 1965, and was a member of the Zagreb National Theater from now on. Some significant roles: Joe (H. Pinter, Il ritorno), Pomet (M. Drzic uncle Maroje), Seminarian (FM Dostoevsky, The demons), Ljovka (IE Babelj, Twilight), Othello (W. Shakespeare), Marko Baric ( M. Begovic, Without the third), Andrija Hebrang (A. Vuletic), The Architect (A. Soljan, Diocletian's palace), Brack (H. Ibsen, Hedda Gabler), Jura (Z. Zoricic, Steak tartare ) and Vanya and Cvak (B. Glumac, Zagreb, 'Who is who in Croatia). He founded Theater 101, adapted and directed Shakespeare's Othello and played the main role. He wrote and performed the drama Top Secret, monodrama The horse for spritz and rectification Slowly grind the mills of the Lord (to Krleza's war diaries), and wrote the novel The Seventh Day (1993). Some films in which he starred (Wild Angels F. Hadzic 1969; Lo sparo - K. Golik, 1977; How the war started on my island - V. Bresan, 1996) and some of the television (The Kapelski bonfires, The cat under the helmet, Inspector Vinko)

From the theatrical performance interview The horse for spritz (Konja za gemist), where he had a triple role as writer, director and actor:

"Today's politicians offer empty hands ... we must, we need ... What do they offer? I do not know. I only see that they want to take us ... where? So we have to stay here. I want to stay here, I don't want to go somewhere else. I want to communicate, reach some standards, but I don't want to go away! I want to stay in this country, to be a particle in its formation. I want it and I will do it as an actor and therefore I try to present it through this role of the president."
