Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox person Aare Laanemets (6 February 1954 – 28 October 2000)[1] was an Estonian actor and theatre director, who is possibly best recalled for his role as Joosep Toots in three film adaptations of novels penned by author Oskar Luts: Kevade (1969), Suvi (1976), and Sügis (1990). Laanemets' career began as a teenager and he worked steadily as an adult as a stage, film, and television actor until his death in 2000, aged 46. In 1984, he co-founded the Pärnu School Theatre, where he worked as an instructor and stage director.
Early life and education
Aare Laanemets was born in Tallinn to Johannes and Ilse Dagmar Laanemets (née Heinluht). He had one sibling.[2] He attended primary and secondary schools in Tallinn, graduating from the Tallinn Sports Boarding School (now, the Audentes Sports Gymnasium) in the Kristiine administrative district of the city in 1972.[3] Afterwards, he enrolled in the Performing Arts Department of Tallinn State Conservatory (now, the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre) under instruction of actor and theatre pedagogue Voldemar Panso, graduating in 1976. Among his graduating classmates were Merle Karusoo, Ago-Endrik Kerge, Urmas Kibuspuu, Kalju Orro, Anne Paluver, Külliki Tool, Lembit Peterson, Priit Pedajas, Eero Spriit, and Peeter Volkonski.[4]
Career
Film
At age fifteen, while still a secondary student at the Tallinn Sports Boarding School, Laanemets was cast as the character Joosep Toots in the 1969 Arvo Kruusement directed Estonian language film Kevade (English: Spring) for Tallinnfilm; a film adaptation of author Oskar Luts' popular 1912 short novel of the same name which followed the lives of residents of the rural, fictitious village of Paunvere in the early 20th-century.[3] After production of the film ended, he returned to finish his studies at secondary school. The film proved to be both commercially and critically successful,[5] and Laanemets revisited the role twice more; in the 1976 film Suvi (English: Summer) and in the 1990 film Sügis (English: Fall); both again directed by Arvo Kruusement and based on the trilogy of novels penned by Oscar Luts of the same names.[5] Laanemets' role of Joosep Toots would prove to be one of his most popular and enduring film roles in Estonia.[5]
In 1972, at age eighteen, Laanemets was cast in a starring role as Jim Hawkins in Ostrov sokrovishch, a Russian language Soviet film adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island, directed by Yevgeni Fridman.[6] In 1974, he had a small role in the Naum Birman-directed Russian language World War II action film Шаблон:Transl.

H. Tammsaare, Gerhart Hauptmann, Raivo Trass, August Kitzberg, Nikos Kazantzakis, Marc Camoletti, and Maurice Maeterlinck, among others.[8] Laanemets performed in over forty roles at the Endla Theatre and directed eleven plays, including five for children. In 1984, he co-founded the Pärnu School Theatre with actors Elmar Trink and Ahti Puudersell, where he worked as an instructor. Some of his students included Liisa Aibel, Kersti Heinloo, Külli Teetamm, Piret Laurimaa, Marko Matvere, and Ago Anderson.[8]
