He is a son of Marian Buczkowski, a pilot at LOT Polish Airlines who died in a plane crash in 1951.He lived next door to a film studio where his neighbor worked as a film extra. With her help at the age of twelve he gained his first appearance as an extra in a film. In 1970 he graduated from the Technical School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering in Warsaw. By chance Janusz Kondratiuk cast him in his film Dziewczyny do wzięcia in 1972. After being cast in the film, Buczkowski decided to drop his profession and devote himself to acting. He attempted to get into an acting school, but was unsuccessful. On 17 December 1983 he made his debut on the stage of the Comedy Theatre in Warsaw, in the play Koniec ery menelików directed by Janusz Kondratiuk and written by Andrzej Kondratiuk (as a scientist and violinist Stasio). In 1986 he passed his exams as an extra.
