Mikhail Baryshnikov. Sex in the city. 1

[@ikshields]

... and thus began the astonishing development of a whole generation of women, who only know Mikhail Baryshnikov -- the greatest ballet dancer of all time -- as "the sexy Russian guy" on Sex in the City. Lol...

[@hyacinthbucket5062]

+Ian Shields so what? you expect for us to know everyone on this planet who is very famous in his field?

[@rachelgarber1423]

Ian Shields Well. he was playing an artist in the show, not a dancer. that would be too cliche.

[@catrionacorigan9931]

I love him!!!

[@mirawenya]

At the time I didn't know him by sight, but the name was ultra famous.

[@agenttheater5]

Unless they watched 'Cheers' first - when they're talking about Sam being a graceful dancer and Diane comforts him by saying 'Baryshnikov is graceful and he's one of the sexiest men alive.'.

[@schappiness]

What a great beautiful creation of humanity. Love Misha's professionalism, charm, talent, and everything. He is one beautiful and inspirational man. After loving him as a dancer since my youth, now he exudes continuous charm, and fascination. aging beautifully in and out.

[@Thunderstorm63]

A very handsome man, no? How he could leap into the air when he danced - such talent. Good choice bringing him in.

[@mitzieregan5716]

Some of the best episodes of Sex and city was with him

[@johannapiard5784]

Agreed

[@elenakrane1165]

He's way tooo classy for her..

[@classified773]

He’s also to worldly for her. But to play devils advocate, he took advantage of her lack of understanding towards his world.

[@biba3025]

Is that why he kept interrupting Charlote? And told her to shup up by a finger as if she is his toddler?? Acting so important and full of himself? As European woman i couldnt stand watchin him.in series. Only American women are amazed by his character, to us, he is soooo annoying!

[@elenakrane1165]

@@biba3025 as a woman I can say,, American women need to learn some class, and give themselves some value. Be your own, but don't be trashy. I'm from a family of feminist, from dad to brother and mom and sister we hold feminine in high respect and anything he can do, doesn't mean u can do it too, it means you can do it better, but acting low it's a sign of how much u give respect to yourself, and maybe her own behavior of "oh, I am a big mac girl and I can't take it when a man is respectful to me" gave him room to think... "oh,, is that so" let me be more of an 🍑.

Mikhail Baryshnikov is hot....... love his eyes !

[@carolynfeldman9643]

The greatest ballet dancer of all time is also the sexiest of all time. AND he can act! 😎🥰

[@SoniaSantander]

True

[@commercialzone4141]

MB was so devastatingly charming and good looking in this show.

[@minajan4316]

Carrie looks beautiful here. And the eyebrow raise she does it so good.

[@jennifercole3506]

Oh my gosh I love him. I gave up my football signed by all the 49ers so my moms boyfriend would take me on my 16th birthday to see last performance in San Francisco that was 1990

[@ludoludo80]

Wonderful! I’m envy you! This is an exquisite memory!

[@valmacclinchy]

He's still acting in stage plays. I hope to get the chance to see him in a play one day!

[@karenb4505]

❤ good call!

[@MsPatataki]

Gosh! he's gorgeous!! I love him so much!!!

[@pamelamays4186]

My favorite Russian. My favorite ballet dancer.

[@iremguler5538]

He was so rude to Charlotte

[@Cherry2891]

Truuuuue

[@rhythmicelegance4670]

To be fair, Charlotte wasn’t quite the epitome of dignity in that moment, so that’s where they clashed. That’s how some Russians are. To them it’s normal not to pander to what may seem nonsensical to them. It seems like an illogical waste of time. That’s part of where the “cold Russian” stereotype comes from. I’m not Russian, but have trained with them in sports, and as an INTJ I have understood their perspective. In other cultures, it is considered polite to pretend they are ok with that sort of interaction, regardless of how embarrassing it might be to either or both parties. There isn’t necessarily a wrong or right either way. Just different ways of responding.

[@ritatocta7583]

@@rhythmicelegance4670 oh thanks for the insight!

[@ludoludo80]

A person comes to you Without introducing herself… and the friend that is with you. the name of the gallery that she used to work for … and she started acting like a fool without dignity …. also is not very elegant or respectful to talk about another artist carriers at the exhibition preview of another artist , and Charlotte as a Character would have never talked to him like that during the exhibition… If you don’t act proper you don’t deserve accondiscendense . They write Charlotte in this scene like she never worked in a gallery or in the art word for 10 years… Quite stupid. The art industry is quite rigid and manners are everything !

[@gabyr.883]

@@rhythmicelegance4670 Wao, I have discover that I'm russian lol

[@eslomovits]

I'm only watching this for Mischa.... Love him!

[@arin7981]

Carrie looks soooo beautiful here😍😍😍

[@CHRISTIANHUGO1]

He's gorgeous ..... totally my type

[@ghjgg3521]

He's an amazing talent!

[@pediatrapaola]

if you had seen him in 1975 at his first apparition in italy ,it was in florence and did giselle with our carla fracci ,what to say?he could fly.

[@ludoludo80]

I doubt that a person that had worked in galleries for almost 10 years would have sound so childish and incompetent talking to an artist… Second why Charlotte is not introducing herself and her friend in the first place … She acted so uneducated… The writers was tired or what?!

He's hot.

[@vetadry]

he is the man of my dreams is so hut, young or old

[@ritatocta7583]

Very very HUT :)

[@weenax]

Carrie's rethoric and points of interest are the ones of a 15 year old girl. What kind of a woman pushing 40 with one shred of class and Lady like manners would react in this way? It's actually good that I was 15 when satc first aired, I'm not sure if i could go through a scene like this at 30

[@hoppinghobbit9797]

nope. so much artwork is overrated

[@commercialzone4141]

She acted like she had a few drinks in her when she made that ruckus. It’s ok not to like an artistic installation. But there’s no call to snort and giggle like a teenager.

The way he looks at the chick is obviously interested:)

[@couch.patati-patata]

Was he a ballet dancer? He was. And he was in SATC.

[@sandyn3384]

Holy cow, Misha B😮❤️❤️

[@teleprompt]

Is it just me, or was he a bit rude to Charlotte?

[@malikabernard966]

Yeah I think he was pretty rude to Charlotte. She was the one that stopped him to tell him that she was a fan of his work and he kind of disregards her praises to talk Carrie, who couldn’t care less about the art exhibit.

[@ludoludo80]

Actually you don’t talk about other artist career during another artist exhibition. rule n 1 of gallery etiquette Then She was rude during the exhibition and when he understood that she worked in the art world he was upset Then She didn’t introduce herself … she didn’t introduce the gallery that she used to work for … she didn’t introduce her friends … and she was talking , talking about his past … She was quite rude herself… So he reacted Accordingly … The character is supposedly be monolithic in his seriousness… so no disrespect admitted!

[@monicagambino318]

Yep

[@goethiana]

Misha!

[@chazlenz1]

what!!!! lucky as fuck

[@loulie1997]

not that i have anything against sex in the city but it's such a pity to see him not performing anymore and on a tv show... I just think it's so depressing, i wish he taught more than did this...

[@rachelgarber1423]

Ivy Hoss Well, he'll be 70 next year, and I read a Vanity Fair interview in which he said he was approached by the producers and he thought it would be a fun think to do. Over a decade ago yet responded to someone who asked he would dance (ballet) one more time and he referred to his age then. it's not just a dance it's rehearsal after rehearsal after rehearsal, no matter how well you've danced (at his level) your body catches up with you. It becomes more "work" and stops being pleasurable

Why did not Mikhail Barishnikov play himself in the movie? In fact the role he played its his life, its true that in real he was dating with the hotest girls in USA, he had a relationship of 6 years and he has a daughter. Why they shoykd invent a new role for him?
