Ellen Slusarchi, the sex-bomb of Ukrainian cinema, couldn't distract Vladimir Koshevoy from the pain in his leg.
"Yes! In one scene, I had to get on a horse. Even though there was an animal consultant by my side and the horse was docile, I jumped off and broke my leg. It was horrible. We were in the middle of filming, we had scenes left to shoot, we were running out of time," Koshevoy recalled. "I especially suffered in the erotic scene with Ellen Slusarchi. We filmed it so that the cast was not visible - the frame was without legs. At least mine. She and I are in close contact (laughs) and I can't think of anything but my aching foot! I'll tell you, when it hurts under a cast, it's no good for sex..."
