Hungry childhood, boycotts of classmates and other little-known facts from the life of Lyudmila Gurchenko. Biography of the legend of the ussr - gurchenko lyudmila markovna last love and death of loved ones

22.04.2020

“One day in 2000, I leave the office, I see a woman walking along the corridor of the school in an elegant coat, hat and gloves. Turns around - Gurchenko! I'm just speechless! And Lyudmila Markovna calmly says: “Are you the director here now? And I studied here for 10 years. Do you want me to show you what desk I was sitting at? Thus began our acquaintance and our friendship.

I remember one story I really liked. Once in Moscow, a man approached Gurchenko and quietly said: “But you and I stole together ...” Lyudmila Markovna was taken aback, but then she guessed what he was talking about and invited her fellow countryman to a cafe. The episode was meant when Gurchenko was not yet six years old - it was then that the war began. Her father went to the front, and she and her mother - Elena Alexandrovna - remained in Kharkov. They did not have time to evacuate - there were not enough seats on the train. In October 1941, the Germans entered the city. Roundups, arrests, executions, food problems, curfews...

And Lucy, you know, rushed around the city with the boys - just as hungry as she was. Once she was offered to stand "on the nix" in the market - the booty was then divided. It was from this company that the boy was, who, having become an adult, after many years approached Gurchenko on the street in Moscow.

The Germans. So Lucy went to the German unit, sang songs. And in German. Since German films were playing in cinemas at that time, Lucy simply learned the songs from them by ear, without going into the meaning. The homesick soldiers were delighted! Earned enough and Luce, and mother. So they lived for almost two years of occupation.”

Luce was boycotted for "treason"

In Elena Alexandrovna, a subtle upbringing was felt - as we later learned, she came from a noble family. Unlike Lucy's father - Mark Gavrilovich, who was a very simple man: with a frank Kharkov dialect and an eternal button accordion on his shoulder. It is even strange how these two completely different people could love each other so much! For those harsh years, it was rare to express their feelings so passionately, as Lucy's parents did to each other. It seems to me that then, all her life, Lucy was looking for exactly the same love as her parents, and did not find ...

They adored their daughter, especially the father. Mark Gavrilovich told her almost from birth: “You are the most beautiful! You will be a famous actress!” And Lucy was completely akin to this idea.

The actress of the USSR theater and cinema was born on November 12, 1935 in the city of Kharkov. Lyudmila's father - Gurchenko Mark Gavrilovich (1898-1973) was a peasant. Mother - Simonova-Gurchenko Elena Alexandrovna (1917-1999) of a noble family. The future spouses met at the school where Elena studied in the ninth grade, and Mark worked part-time in musical accompaniment. Not having received approval from her mother, Elena left home. She married Mark and gave birth to Lucy. Subsequently, Lyudmila's mother did not finish school, she helped her husband in organizing events at the Philharmonic. My father was a musician: he sang at holidays, played the button accordion. The family lived in a modest one-room apartment.

When the war came, Lyudmila's father went to the front, despite the fact that he did not pass the selection for health reasons. Lyudmila and her mother ended up in occupied Kharkov. After the Nazis occupied the house of the Gurchenko family, mother and daughter had to live in an apartment with a balcony. Until the end of her life, Lyudmila hated balconies, which reminded her of hunger, cold, war and fear.

From a young age, Lyudmila Markovna showed talents that helped her family survive the military famine. She sang songs from German films and danced in front of enemy troops, in response to which the Germans gave away the remnants of soup and bread.

Education

Despite the difficult war years, six-year-old Lyudmila went to the first grade of Ukrainian school No. 6 on September 1, 1943.

The following year, Lucy transferred to the Beethoven Music School. During her school years, she was the soul of the company, a bright star on matinees and skits. She was known as a fashionista, altering her mother's outfits for herself. From an early age, Lyudmila understood that she had one road in life - the path of an actress.

In 1953, immediately after graduating from school, she moved to Moscow. Having passed the entrance exams, she entered the All-Union State Institute of Cinematography under the guidance of Sergei Gerasimov and Tamara Makarova (she graduated in 1958).

The beginning of the creative path

The young student first appeared in the film "The Road of Truth" in 1956. Got a small role of an activist of the Komsomol. The game of the novice star was not noticeable. In the same year, the famous New Year's picture by Eldar Ryazanov "Carnival Night" was released, which glorified a young student with a beautiful voice and acting skills. This wave of success ended. Having become a hostage of the image of a girl who can only sing and dance. Career began to turn into a part-time job on "hacks".

From 1958 to 1965 and from 1968 to 1990 she played at the Film Actor's Studio Theatre. In 1963-1966 she performed at the Moscow Sovremennik Theater, after which until 1969 she was an artist of the State Concert.

New wave of popularity

In 1974, the role of Anna Smirnova (director of a weaving factory) in the melodrama Old Walls turned Gurchenko into the most filmed actress in Soviet cinema. Two years later, she appeared in a complex and tragic image in the drama “Twenty Days Without War”, Yuri Nikulin became a partner on the set, who supported Lyudmila in every possible way during the filming. After completing the work on the picture, they remained true friends. At the same time, another film “Mom” was released, where Gurchenko was seen in the role of a charming and attractive mother goat.

In 1982, Lyudmila Markovna played the waitress Vera in the drama "Station for Two". The plot of this film is known not only to Soviet people, but also to the modern generation, how an elderly woman found the love of prisoner Ryabinin.

Well, how can one forget the extravagant and unique homemaker Raisa Zakharovna in Vladimir Menshov's tragicomedy Love and Pigeons. Initially, this image belonged to Tatyana Doronina, but during the filming, the director changed his choice towards Luda.

Personal life

Officially, our popular artist was married four times. There were civil spouses, short-term novels. Such a life developed because of the difficult nature of the actress. She is a woman who knew her worth and was afraid to depend on men.

Legitimate husbands of the actress

The first husband in 1954 was the director of the film "Peers" Vasily Ordynsky. We met while studying at VGIK. They lived together for a year and no longer remembered their relationship with each other.

The second husband in 1958 was the writer Boris Andronikashvili. For two years of marriage, Lyudmila Gurchenko gave birth to a daughter, Maria, and was immediately left alone. She did not communicate with Boris.

The third husband was actor Alexander Fadeev. Alexander was distinguished by an absurd character and unhealthy addictions. The marriage took place in 1962. The star duet met in a cult restaurant of that time WTO. And again, the union was short-lived, lasting only two years. Surrounding gave rise to many rumors about this parting. Someone accused the bad character of Alexander, according to another version, he cheated on Lyudmila with Larisa Luzhina during the filming of "Vertical".

The fourth chosen one was Joseph Kobzon. He tried to make friends with Larisa's daughter, Maria, to become a real father. But the marriage cracked after three years. This test was not easy for both of them. After parting, the actress and singer did not communicate for four decades.

After short-lived marriages, Gurchenko pinned her hopes on an unregistered union with musician Konstantin Cooperweiss. And, oddly enough, this union lasted twenty years. But here, too, the relationship has outlived its usefulness.

Last love and death of loved ones

Gurchenko found her next happiness in the person of producer Sergei Yesenin, who is twenty-five years younger (she was already 58). She lived with him until the end of her days. Sergei did not get along with Masha, her daughter Lena, named after her grandmother, and with her son Mark, named after his grandfather. By the age of 14, he became addicted to drugs while attending a boarding school. Alas, Mark's life was cut short at the age of 17 due to cardiac arrest when he took an injection of heroin. Relations between Lyudmila Markovna and Maria were not smooth, but after death the situation escalated. The mother did not forgive her daughter for keeping silent about the death of her grandson.

Maria passed away in 2017 at the age of 58 as a result of heart failure.

Hobby

Lyudmila Markovna loved to dress fashionably. She collected beautiful things: clothes, dishes, souvenirs. But she did not indulge in expensive delights, she turned even the cheapest thing into a masterpiece. From childhood, she could redraw clothes herself, make jewelry for them that everyone would admire. She independently sewed about 200 outfits, choosing scarves, brooches, belts for them. She had a taste like another gift in her face.

Contribution to Russian culture

In 2007, the actress was awarded the Order for Contribution to Culture.

In 1983 she received the title of People's Artist of the USSR. She was not only an actress, but also a singer and composer. She has recorded about ten music albums. The songs “Prayer” and “Want” are especially praised, where there is a complete combination of voice control and acting skills.

Death

November 12, 2010 Lyudmila Gurchenko celebrated her 75th birthday on stage. She was congratulated by President Dmitry Medvedev, Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, leader of Belarus Lukashenko.

The last work in the cinema was “Legend. Lyudmila Gurchenko in Kyiv”. An autobiographical project starting from the student years of the singer.

She died on March 30, 2011 at the age of 75. She knew a hungry childhood during the war, arthritis, which deformed her joints and caused unbearable pain, lost loved ones, suffered from loneliness and misunderstanding. In February 2011, she underwent surgery to replace a hip that had been broken in a fall. On March 30, it became difficult to breathe, lost consciousness and collapsed on the floor in the house where she cohabited with her last lover.

The doctors were unable to help. The cause of death was given as heart failure. They buried her in her last masterpiece: a champagne-colored dress decorated with beads at the Novodevichy cemetery near Vyacheslav Tikhonov and Oleg Yankovsky.

Lyudmila Markovna then came to Kharkov several more times, and we met with her and talked. She recalled her childhood in Kharkov with pleasure, - says Lesya Zub, director of the Kharkov gymnasium No. 6.

Once in Moscow, a man approached Gurchenko and quietly said: “But you and I stole together ...” Lyudmila Markovna was taken aback, but then she guessed what he was talking about and invited her fellow countryman to a cafe. The episode was meant when Gurchenko was not yet six years old - it was then that the war began. Her father went to the front, and she and her mother - Elena Alexandrovna - remained in Kharkov.

It was from this company that the boy was, who, having become an adult, after many years approached Gurchenko on the street in Moscow.

Lucy is five years old (right)

Her mother, having learned about what Lucy had to do that day, simply locked her daughter at home. But there was something she needed ... Elena Alexandrovna herself was 24 years old at that time, she did not know how to earn money - she got married early and before the war she sat at home, raised Lucy ... When her husband went to the front, Elena Alexandrovna, finding herself one is completely lost. Fortunately, Lucy already sang so well then that for her “performances” no, no, and they cut off a piece of bread, poured a bowl of soup. Well, who had food in Kharkov in 1941? The Germans. So Lucy went to the German unit, sang songs. And in German. Since German films were playing in cinemas at that time, Lucy simply learned the songs from them by ear, without going into the meaning. The homesick soldiers were delighted! Earned enough and Luce, and mother. So they lived for almost two years of occupation.”

Luce was boycotted for "treason"

“Lyusya and I were eight years old when we met,” says Gurchenko’s school friend, Nina Sweet. - It was during the war. Life was hard, but the House of Pioneers resumed its work, and Lucy's parents came to work there. A recently demobilized father is an accordion player, and his mother is a mass entertainer. In Elena Alexandrovna, a subtle upbringing was felt - as we later learned, she came from a noble family. Unlike Lucy's father - Mark Gavrilovich, who was a very simple man: with a frank Kharkov dialect and an eternal button accordion on his shoulder. It is even strange how these two completely different people could love each other so much!

It seems to me that then, all her life, Lucy was looking for exactly the same love as her parents, and did not find ...

That's really who did not feel any embarrassment, going on stage. She did not need to be persuaded - Lucy herself was looking for an audience. I remember how she kept running to the hospital to sing: there the wounded were waiting for her, praising her ... Perhaps only dad could stop Lucy when she started to sing or dance. She loved and knew how to be noticeable! To be friends with such a person meant forever being in the shadows. But I was never going to become an artist - so we were friends with her. What was she then? Skinny, wiry, sharp-eyed. Skin and bones. In those days it was considered ugly. A thin girl is an unhealthy girl. By the way, when I later heard about Gurchenko’s aspen waist - they say, the actress had some secrets, some diets - I grinned: “The secret, guys, is in the war!” Lucy starved at the age when the child should grow up, be formed. And because of this - painful thinness for life. Not from a good life!

“The secret of Gurchenko’s aspen waist is in the war! Lucy starved at the age when the child should grow up, be formed. And because of this - painful thinness for life. (Lyudmila Gurchenko is 12 years old. Kharkiv)

I remember how Lusya appeared at school number 6 - she didn’t have a dress or stockings. She walked around in trousers and in a jacket made from a flannelette robe. The war is not over yet, poverty is all around. There were not enough desks, notebooks, chalk in schools, and the textbook was one for five. And already in 1944, several classes of the school were taken to a pioneer camp. And there - about a miracle! - fed four times a day. They even gave us a "dessert" - a piece of refined sugar once a day. By September, evacuees began to return to Kharkov, their children went to school. It was then that we all - those who survived the occupation - began to hear contemptuously behind our backs: "German Shepherds!" And Lucy got it in particular: she sang in front of the Germans, which means that she was a “traitor” doubly. The girls in her class (at first we studied with Lyusya in parallel) even announced a boycott to her. They didn’t talk to her, didn’t take her to play, it happened that they even pushed her painfully in the corridor ... But gradually the situation was resolved: before screenings in cinemas they began to show newsreel, where the atrocities of the Germans in the occupied territory were shown in all details. And gradually the evacuees began to sympathize with us - those who survived the occupation. That left Lucy behind.

“I’ll become an actress - I’ll have a thousand like him!”

All school years we studied under the system of separate education - boys and girls were united only in 1954, and we graduated from school in 1953. Occasionally, school evenings were held together with the boys, but this was clearly not enough for the boys and girls to get used to each other and learn to communicate. We could communicate with the boys only in the House of Pioneers. Here Lucy fell in love there - with Vova Serebrisky. We all studied ballroom dancing with Lucy's mother. Vova was the most handsome guy - we all liked him. But only Lucy decided to somehow fight for his attention - to approach, to speak. For us it was unheard of! Mother, Elena Alexandrovna, apparently noticed Lucy's childish feeling, because she often paired them with Vova. It was immediately obvious: Lucy was trying very hard to please him: she looked expressively, and laughed melodiously, like a bell, and kept telling some funny stories ... But nothing worked: Vova led her in a dance with a bored expression on his face. And in the end, he completely chose another girl as his girlfriend, who was considered the most beautiful in the House of Pioneers. Lucy shed a lot of tears because of all this. I remember how she no-no and yes, she will sing another sad song from some movie. Or suddenly he will say: “I will become an actress - I will have a thousand like him!”

“The news that Lucy was in Kharkov spread among her friends, and we gathered at school. We sat and listened with open mouths to her stories about the filming of Carnival Night. After that, Lucy disappeared for a long time. (Lyudmila Gurchenko and Yuri Belov in the film "Carnival Night", 1956). Photo: MOSFILM-INFO

The cinema was like a magnet for Lucy, she simply adored cinema. And almost the same - theater. From the first desk near the window, where Lucy was sitting in the classroom, the Kharkiv Ukrainian Drama Theater named after Shevchenko was clearly visible. Probably, this theater played a significant role in the fate of Gurchenko. There they began to prepare the play "Yaroslav the Wise" and did not have time with the costumes for the premiere. They asked the principal of the school to help the schoolgirls to sew. The girls got down to business, and as a reward they got the opportunity to come to performances. As a result, Lucy learned the entire repertoire by heart. Her memory was incredible: she could reproduce any monologue from anywhere, including all the "um" and "apchi". Gurchenko only did what she imitated one of the actresses she saw. I remember how she celebrated her 13th birthday and performed a melodic recitation to an oriental dance, which she learned from the film "Indian Tomb" (dad, Mark Gavrilovich, accompanied her daughter on the button accordion). At the birthday party was also our class teacher, whom we all loved and called Zebra for the striped sweater.

“At school, everyone discussed Lucy’s behavior when, having bitten off someone else’s donut by mistake, she said to the angry hostess: “Yes, you will still be proud that Gurchenko herself bit the bagel!” (Lyudmila Gurchenko, 1950)

Klara Abramovna understood art, especially poetry. But she resolutely did not like Lusino's performance - the dance and outfit looked too defiant for a Soviet girl. Well, Luce, all these conventions were incomprehensible. The main thing is to be in the spotlight, to perform, and at the same time she looks Soviet or not Soviet - what does it matter? I remember how Lucy was bored at the lessons - she was sitting on pins and needles, she could not wait for the call to change. And here is the call.

“After Carnival Night, we didn’t see her again”

I knew that since my friend dreams of becoming an actress, sooner or later our paths will diverge. But as much as possible, we were friends. I remember how they celebrated the New Year, 1953, at her house. On the table were compote, vinaigrette, potatoes ... Not a gram of alcohol! None of us even tried smoking. We sat, Lucy sang for us, then after twelve we went into the yard to go sledding. That's the whole program ... And six months later was our graduation.

“If they spit in your back, then you are moving forward!”

“Shortly after the dizzying success in the film Carnival Night, Lucy began to have big troubles,” says Konstantin Sherdits, a countrywoman of the actress.

The fact is that the whole country already considered her a movie star, which means that she was a rich and prosperous girl. Lucy received many letters asking for money. Meanwhile, she was a poor student, had a single coat and rode a trolley bus. The scholarship was not enough. Naturally, Gurchenko wanted to earn extra money. And then they just began to invite her to all sorts of concerts and for the song “Five Minutes” they put money in envelopes - in addition to the official fee. This fact has surfaced and been blown out of proportion. They say that the Minister of Culture himself then said: “There will be no such surname - Gurchenko, we will wipe it into powder!” And so, at first, notes about a dishonest, greedy artist appeared in Moscow newspapers, then ours, Kharkov ones, joined in. Well, of course, after all, they commanded from above: “Face!” One can only imagine what it was like for Lyudmila Gurchenko to read in the Kharkov newspapers about the “upstart from Klochkovskaya Street” (it was written that way!), Who became arrogant and began to behave like a star. Well, the last straw was a letter that someone sent Gurchenko: “Why did you disgrace us, countrywoman?” It was then that she vowed not to come to her hometown again. After all, her parents themselves visited her in Moscow - so who was she to go to? She was proud. She said: “If they spit in your back, then you are moving forward!”

Well, then, already in 1996, when I, being the head of the Kharkiv Department of Culture at the mayor's office, created a club of fellow countrymen, I called Lyudmila Markovna and invited her to come. At first she - in any! I barely had time to say: “They are calling you from the Kharkov City Hall,” and she already went on the attack: “What-o-oooo? Kharkov remembered me? Oh, just don’t need these big words: “We are countrymen”, “We love you”. I won't believe it!" And she hung up. But I called her a few more times. In the end, Lucy relented. And arrived! And she even confessed to me: “You know, Kostya, I have been waiting for such a call for many, many years!” It turned out that she even dreamed of the city, and Gurchenko woke up in tears, with the thought: “Lord, will I really die without visiting my homeland?”

I remember we met her at the station with bread and salt. And the bread was black, freshly baked. Lucy broke off a piece, sniffed it and said: “Well, the smell! What is Dior! She survived the war, the occupation. And bread for her is everything! Lucy later told us: “For as long as I can remember, I always wanted to eat!” We treated her to fame: she loved fish dishes, waffle cake. But everything in moderation! Blew the figure.

The climax was her entrance on stage. Gurchenko was terribly worried. And later she confessed because of what: “I kept thinking: what if some idiot shouts from the hall: “Upstart from Klochkovskaya!” After all, I could not stand it - I died of shame! Forty years later, already being a famous actress, she was still vulnerable and fragile ... And she had no psychological protection. But no defense was needed - when Lyudmila Gurchenko entered the stage, the audience rose and applauded her for about ten minutes. And she just stood there and cried. Yes, it was a reconciliation! After that, Gurchenko more than once came on tour and just for a walk.

Each time she occupied the same hotel room. And we tried to ensure that the room was free by the time she arrived. Sometimes I had to ask the guests: “Excuse me, but could you move? Gurchenko is coming." She also liked us to meet her with a bouquet of wildflowers. That's all her requirements. She and I walked a lot around the places of her childhood, and Lucy talked about everything: about the occupation, how we survived, how we were saved. She did not like to talk about her Moscow life: neither about her husband, nor about her daughter. Although the fact that with her husband, Senin, everything was fine with her was immediately evident. But something didn't seem right with her daughter. I once asked Lucy about this, but she stopped: “Please, let’s not talk about this!” She could talk about her childhood endlessly - and as if it were a very happy childhood ... But no wide-brimmed hat helped - Gurchenko instantly recognized everyone, and she never managed to calmly walk around the city or take the subway. But most of all, Lucy loved to walk along the paving stones on high heels. So she clicked her heels! It turns out that as a girl she dreamed of how, having become a famous actress, she would walk, elegant, on this paving stone - and everyone would admire her. And so it happened ... "

A well-known photo artist Aslan Akhmadov appeared in the new issue of Dmitry Borisov's program "Let them talk". He released several videos and photos of Lyudmila Gurchenko, taken shortly before her death. “They gave me a DVR in the car, it stuck to the glass with a suction cup, constantly fell, but continued to record something. At some point I got angry, threw it into the glove compartment, and remembered it only when I decided to sell the car. her and found a flash drive. What it contained shocked me, there were videos with Lucy, "admitted a friend of the artist.

ON THIS TOPIC

The fixer filmed Gurchenko philosophizing about her death. So, the artist said that she had completely thought out her image for the day of the funeral. "To die ... But it's too early. I haven't sewn the last dress yet, there's still a kilo and a half of beads. Aslan, you have to make me up, put this dress on me. I want everything to be very polite, delicate at the funeral. There should be a lot of flowers, but not at the face! Let people sort them out later, I always distribute bouquets. I just want everything to be quick, my face should be fresh. Some, of course, will say: "Here, with age she has become nothing, wiser, but that freshness is gone," Gurchenko said.

A friend said that the actress could not stand the film "Carnival Night", which brought her fame and love throughout the country. Even the song "Five Minutes", performed by her in 1956, made the artist hysterical.

In conclusion, Aslan spoke about the relationship between Lyudmila Gurchenko and her last sixth husband, Sergei Senin. “She loved him very much, it was clear what energy was between them ... Next to Sergey, she was very thoughtful, absorbed in her thoughts and incredibly modest. I am grateful to her for everything! When there is a person next to you who gave you so much in life ... Lucy opened music for me, a big boundless world, "said a friend of the actress.

Many believed that Lyudmila Markovna knew some kind of magical “Macropolus remedy”, thanks to which the years had no power over her. But in fact, everything was different. About how Gurchenko fought for her youth and beauty and what it cost her, Teleprogramma.pro tells on the birthday of the actress. Gorgeous Gurchenko Lyudmila Gurchenko, archival photo.

Gurchenko Lyudmila Markovna Lyudmila Gurchenko - Soviet, Russian theater and cinema, pop singer, screenwriter, director, composer, writer. There were legends about the plastic surgeries performed by Lyudmila Gurchenko. Like the famous Lyubov Orlova, the actress really wanted the audience to see her as exceptionally young and beautiful. She was imitated, admired, millions of women dreamed that they had the same slender waist (as they said, only 44 centimeters), the same almond-shaped eyes, the same chiseled cheekbones, the same sensual lips ...

In the Soviet years, Lyudmila Gurchenko was a client of the famous Beauty Institute on the Arbat. According to rumors, for the first time Gurchenko went to plastic surgeons back in the 70s - it was then, as they say, that the shape of her eyes changed. The star liked the result. Also, some believe that in the early 70s, the actress could slightly correct the shape of her nose.

Then, as they say, in the 80s, the actress, who did not want to look her 50 years old, underwent a circular facelift, as well as an “age-related” blepharoplasty. In the late 80s, many noticed that Gurchenko's cheekbones became clearer. They also said that in the 90s Lyudmila Markovna turned to foreign plastic surgeons, but she did not like the results, then the star tried to fix everything more than once - already at home.

Once the star admitted: “I had a very difficult period of oblivion. I don't want this anymore."

She was very worried about changes in appearance, which, alas, are inevitable with age. I did physical exercises daily, went on diets, periodically drank drugs that remove excess fluid from the body and promote weight loss. At the same time, the actress was a man of incredible self-discipline. Colleagues said that Lyudmila Markovna worked out daily on simulators so as not to “lose” her magnificent figure.
