Ivan’s Characters

We have found that there is generally no place on the web where characters of movies or TV productions are listed and described in an encyclopaedic way. (If you know a place that we may have overlooked, please let us know!)

Therefore we have decided to look into the major characters Ivan has played over the years and to provide basic information on them as well as analysis and interpretation whenever we think it is meaningful and interesting.

We also encourage you to comment on our presentation and exchange views as we are convinced that this will improve the quality of our page and help us refine, sharpen and improve our arguments and appraisal of characters.

To this end we will create sub-pages to this section starting with more recent well-known characters. We will also post analysis and interpretation on the blog before adding it to the sub-pages. In this way, we can first hear your opinion.
