Anna Seniuk is one of the best-known stars of Polish cinema. Over the course of her 60-year career, she has starred in dozens of productions, but it was her role as Magda Karwowska in the series “Czterdziestolatek” that brought her the greatest popularity. Viewers have a great fondness for the actress, and she shares her knowledge and experience with students of the Aleksander Zelwerowicz Theatre Academy in Warsaw.
Anna Seniuk told about the behind-the-scenes of working with a homosexual colleague on the set. “The Golden Feathered Bird”
Some time ago, the artist gave an interview to the monthly “Replika”, in which she recalled working on the set of the cult series. She also revealed more details about cooperation with Krzysztof Pankiewicz, a set designer and cameo actor who hid his sexual orientation.
His costume and jewelry are what he wore to the set, not the result of the costume designers’ work. I was so fascinated by Pankiewicz and his wonderful personality that I actually don’t remember what I played there. It was a wonderful, colorful, golden-feathered bird. When he appeared on the set, everyone looked at him with admiration. A fascinating and witty person – she said in an interview with “Replika”.
The legendary actress was staring at Pankiewicz. She emphasizes that she is an ally of LGBT+ people
Although Krzysztof Pankiewicz is mainly associated with his work as a screenwriter, he was also a painter. In turn, his adventure with acting was very short, because he appeared in only two films, but it was thanks to a small episode in “The Forty-Year-Old” that he gained recognition. In the interview, the actress also revealed how Pankiewicz worked on the set of the series.
I couldn’t take my eyes off him. Jurek Gruza gave him a completely free hand on the set. He told him that he would not direct him, that he should move as it came naturally to him and that the camera would follow him. (…) His costume and jewelry are what he wore to the set, not the result of the costume designers’ work – we read.
In an interview, Anna Seniuk admitted that she supports the LGBT+ community. “I simply accepted the existence of gays and lesbians, it didn’t impress me,” and she additionally admitted that homosexual men around her were always “exceptionally gallant, elegant, sometimes more polite than heterosexual colleagues.”
