Life

Tatiana Samoilowa was a daughter of the actor Yevgeny Valerianowitsch Samoilow and Sinaida Ilyinichna Levina and the great niece of Konstantin Stanislavski . In 1937 the family moved to Moscow because their father wanted to work with Vsevolod Meyerhold .

During her school days, Tatiana initially wanted to become a ballet dancer, but then trained as an actor at the Shchukin Theater School, although she almost got an engagement at the Bolshoi Theater . She subsequently played at several theaters: At GITIS , at the Mayakovsky Theater and at the Vakhtangov Theater - there she gained her first experience. She made her film debut in 1956 in Wladimir Kaplunowskis Mexikanez . She achieved international recognition through the role of Veronica in The Cranes Pull .

She was married four times, including the actor Vasily Lanovoi . She was an Honored Artist of the RSFSR .

When Tatyana Samoilova played, it could be described as natural and expressive. With deep intelligence and secret exoticism, she was able to express happiness and pain at the same time without appearing cramped. Her game is heartbreaking, lively and “expressive as a flame”, so that the viewer feels emotionally connected to her from the very first moment. "A woman" from the people ", in the best and most beautiful sense, who manages that we experience her film fate for the first time, even though we have seen it a dozen times."

In Cannes she was called "the Russian Audrey Hepburn ".

Samoilova died on her 80th birthday in May 2014 in a Moscow hospital.
