Renata Litvinova

Renata Litvinova is a Russian theater and film actress, director and screenwriter who is known to the general public primarily for her unique style and peculiar demeanor.

As if descended from photographs of the thirties, this sophisticated blonde, never parting with bright lipstick, has a unique charm that bewitches the viewer from the first minutes. Litvinova's charisma is enhanced by her gestures, a muffled voice with a slight hoarseness and an unconventional manner of constructing phrases, sometimes giving rise to surprising and well-aimed aphorisms.

The actress was born in Moscow, both of her parents were doctors. The girl's birthday fell on the Capricorn zodiac sign. Renata's father, Murat Aminovich Vergazov, had a noble birth, belonged to the ancient princely Tatar family. However, soon after the birth of the baby, the family broke up, and mother Alisa Mikhailovna, who at that time worked as a surgeon, had to work hard to provide for herself and her daughter.

Renata's creative talent manifested itself in her school years. The girl was engaged in folk dances, athletics, and also showed a penchant for literature - she wrote short stories and stories. In addition, Litvinova graduated from the music school at the conservatory.

Nevertheless, according to the actress, she grew up terribly insecure and insecure. Little Renata was ashamed of literally everything: the name (the father named his daughter after his brother Rinat), tall, modest clothes, the fact that her father did not live with them. When her friends came to her, the girl hung a man's cap on a hook in the hallway to show that there was a man in the house.

After graduating from high school in 1984, Litvinova entered VGIK to develop her literary talent in the field of screenwriting. Renata's fellow students at the screenwriting and film studies faculty were Alexander Bashirov, Rashid Nugmanov, and Ivan Okhlobystin. Since at that time, mainly men were studying to be screenwriters, the bright blonde immediately attracted attention. She was often invited to appear in educational and graduation films, where she honed her recognizable style of acting.

However, Litvinova's thesis, the script "The principled and compassionate look of Ali K.", was rated low by the examination committee and sent back for revision. At the same time, the first film script that Renata wrote during her internship went into work. In 1992, it was used as the basis for a drama directed by Valery Rubinchik called Dislike, which was later called the first film in the history of free Russian cinema.

"Dislike" was a success at the international festival in Berlin and at the "Kinotavr", and the camera work was awarded the "Golden Ram" and "Nika".

Litvinova's acting debut took place thanks to the legend of Russian independent cinema Kira Georgievna Muratova. The director discovered the potential of the actress and shot Litvinova in her film "Hobbies". The creative collaboration of Muratova and Litvinova three years later continued with the film almanac "Three stories", where Renata acted simultaneously as the scriptwriter and actress of one episode.

The image of the eccentric and sophisticated nurse Ofa became a kind of calling card, and her lengthy monologues about life quickly scattered into quotes. A quarter of a century later, the phrase "I would put zero to this world" does not lose its relevance.

Renata's next success was Valery Todorovsky's film "Country of the Deaf", the script for which he wrote, inspired by Litvinova's story "Possess and Belong." And in 2000, Litvinova-actress became widely known: she starred in the melodramatic film novel by Alexander Mitta “Border. Taiga novel ".

In the mid-2000s, Renata starred in the adventure television series "Saboteur" and the comedy "Zhmurki" by Alexei Balabanov. The director was pleased with Litvinova's brilliant work to create the image of Katya's secretary, and soon the actress received a new proposal.

The 2006 film “It Doesn't Hurt Me”, in which the actress played the main role at the invitation of Alexei Balabanov, was approved by film critics at several festivals. So, for the role of the golden-haired Tata, for which the artist had to shave off her eyebrows, Litvinova receives several awards at once - the Golden Eagle, MTV Russia, Nika and Kinotavr awards.
