Nataliya Trubnikova

The image of the beautiful princess Melisenta from Leonid Kvinikhidze's film "June 31", released back in 1978, delighted the Soviet audience. "Who is this unearthly beauty?" - the question immediately arose.

It turned out that the young debutante was a recent graduate of the choreographic school at the Bolshoi Theater, Natalya Trubnikova. It would seem that a new star was born, but fate decreed otherwise - the actress did not have an affair with cinema, but the ballet, which has attracted her since childhood, gave her the joy of self-expression. But the artist has the warmest memories of cinema.

Natalya Evgenievna Trubnikova was born on July 17, 1955 in Moscow. My mother is an engineer, my father served in the state nab, had 2 higher economic educations. My mother's parents are intellectuals from the capital, and my father's ancestors are residents of the vast Volga expanses.

Natasha became the firstborn of a married couple. When she was 4 years old, the youngest son of the Trubnikovs, Viktor, was born. From early childhood, both Natasha and Vitya were taught only one thing - to achieve something, you need to study and work a lot. Therefore, when at the age of 3 the girl saw Maya Plisetskaya performing The Dying Swan, she realized that in order to dance in the same way, one must learn.

Little Natasha was sent to both kindergarten and ballet club at the same time. The girl's desire to dance was so strong that even when she entered school and received a non-childish burden of various loads (including a music school), she did not leave choreography. She studied in studios, and then entered the choreographic school at the Bolshoi Theater.

However, exhausting classes, when a girl in a bathing suit stood for days at the ballet barn, more than compensated for the numerous tours: as part of the troupe of young artists, Trubnikov traveled all over Europe: Paris, Marseille, Lyon, Monte Carlo, visited 65 countries.

The artist graduated from college in 1973 and by that time had been dancing on the stage of the Bolshoi Theater for 8 years. Natalya was sure that she would pass the final exams perfectly and get on the distribution on the main stage of the country. But then fate for the first time made its own adjustments to her biography. Trubnikova is given a four and sent to the Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko Musical Theater (MAMT).

In the theater, he had to start his career with the corps de ballet, gradually gaining a repertoire. Natalia worked on stage for only a couple of years when she was invited to the cinema. True, as a dancer, but Mark Zakharov himself. The master then filmed his classic film "12 chairs" (1976). The ballerina played the captain of the ship in a scene depicting Ostap Bender's fantasy. And she not only played, but also rehearsed with the star, actually putting on this dance piece.

Natalia was very inspired by this work - she had long dreamed of cinema and received offers even at the time of school. Boris Buneev wanted to film her in the drama "Little Farm in the Steppe", Andrei Konchalovsky - in the melodrama "Romance of Lovers". But the girl, being very shy by nature, refused.

And when confidence and professionalism came, they stopped inviting, and if they were invited to audition, they did not approve. As it turned out later, ballet dancers were simply afraid in the sense of their "unreliability": too many ballet dancers remained abroad during the tour. And this meant the collapse of the whole picture and the fate of the actors involved.

Therefore, when in 1978 Natalia was invited to his new film "June 31" by the master of musicals Leonid Kvinikhidze, she was sure that this shot would be "blank", especially since she auditioned for the main role. But the director defended Trubnikov, and as soon as the artist was given a vacation in the theater, she plunged into the magical world of filming.

Natalia appeared in the form of Melisenta, a princess living in the XII century. Despite the abundance of suitors, the girl falls in love with the artist Sam, who lives in the 21st century. The evil wizard tripled their meeting in time, and then separated them. To connect, lovers need to go through a series of adventures. Sam was played by the then incredibly popular Nikolai Eremenko.

The film was shown on television on New Year's Eve on December 31, 1978. And then they were banned for a long time: in 1979, ballet dancer Alexander Godunov, who starred in the role of the court musician Lemison, asked for political asylum in the United States.

Three years later, the ballerina again starred with Kvinikhidze in the film "The Hat" (1981) about the fate of the jazz musician Dmitry Denisov. Natalia played the wife of the secondary hero Savitsky - he was performed by Igor Kvasha.

I was lucky to play another episode in Mark Zakharov's "Formula of Love", as well as to join the cast in the popular fairy tale "The Secret of the Snow Queen" with Alice Freundlich in the title role.

In 1988, Natalya Trubnikova starred in the film The Dreamer based on the opera Porgy and Bess. And in the 90s, the actress's filmography was decorated with the role of Conchita in the Russian-Polish-German film "Alaska Kid".

Meanwhile, the theater was generous with dramatic roles for the artist. Natalia danced Fleur de Lys in Esmeralda, Paola and Zita the gypsy in Rivares. She worked with People's Artist of the USSR Violetta Trofimovna Bovt, with whom she prepared 3 parts: Paquita, Marya in Stepan Razin, Kupava in Snegurochka.

She starred in the performances of the famous choreographer Mikhail Lavrovsky "Revelations", "Cafe-Quarter", in the musical film "The Blind" by the Italian director Eleonora Volpe. Over the years of work in the theater, the actress received a second education - she graduated from the ballet master department of GITIS.

Needless to say, with such beauty and ballet article (height 176 cm), the actress did not suffer from lack of attention. There were many admirers, even one secret admirer appeared, who presented tickets to the best performances in Moscow as gifts, and himself watched from afar.

With all this, Natalya's personal life was not stormy: she rejected relationships with married artists, and among single singles she liked no one so much as to fall deeply in love. Only after joining the MAMT troupe did she meet her fate.

The ballerina's chosen one was her partner, Anatoly Kulakov. They became close, starting to rehearse together in the production of "Insight". And by the time of the premiere they realized that they were in love. Kulakov was 10 years older than Natalia; he came to ballet from figure skating on the advice of a teacher.

Natalia's father - by that time already a major official - was not delighted with the choice of his daughter, and Anatoly's mother did not really like her daughter-in-law, but the artists got married and still prove to everyone the blessing of this marriage. Ballet stars support each other in everything. The couple has no children.

Now, looking at the photos of the artist, one cannot help but compliment her youthfulness. She still attends screen tests to which she is invited. But today he is increasingly sharing his experience with young people: since 1990, she and her husband have founded the Russian School of Models, in which they help girls to behave confidently on stage and in front of the camera.
