Valentina Voilkova

In the early 80s, the male half of the Soviet viewers, sitting in front of the televisions, shared the thrill of Kostik from the Pokrovsky Gate. It was impossible not to fall in love with the charming, proud beauty Rita. The heroine with chiseled features was played by Valentina Voilkova. During the years of perestroika, the actress disappeared without a trace, only in the 2000s it became known how her life had changed.

Valya was born in one of the most disadvantaged areas of Samara. But the street did not affect the character, the future actress grew up at home, a well-bred girl, she brought fives and fours from school.

None of the relatives had anything to do with the world of cinema and art in general. Valentina, from early childhood, suddenly showed a craving for acting. She selflessly played in amateur performances, adored the audience's attention.

Therefore, having received a certificate of maturity, I immediately went to Moscow. Fate favored a talented and pretty provincial woman - Voilkova entered GITIS the first time, studied at the course of Andrei Popov.

After university, the aspiring actress was warmly received by the theater of the Soviet army. For the first time, the girl appeared on stage in the play "Usvyatskie helmet-bearers", coping with the small role of Antonina magnificently. In the future, Valya managed to join the cast of such serious productions as The Idiot, The Lady of the Camellias, The Soldier and Eve and others.

The bright appearance of Valentina Voilkova was also noticed by film directors. The girl was lucky - she immediately began acting in films that were a dizzying success and entered the treasury of the classics of Soviet cinema.

In 1978, stage director Mark Zakharov presented another masterpiece to the audience. The musical melodrama "An Ordinary Miracle" about a magical story that happened with a princess and a bear in the guise of a man is replete with colorful actors. Voilkova in the guise of the lady-in-waiting of Orintia was lucky to work with Oleg Yankovsky, Evgeny Leonov, Andrei Mironov and many other stars of Russian cinema.

The main games went to the very young Evgenia Simonova and Alexander Abdulov. The role of Valentina did not imply a word, the girl just periodically appeared in the frame, but this did not prevent the audience from remembering the beautiful actress.

Then Voilkova appeared in a number of konepisodes. The actress reincarnated as Rustam's girlfriend in the detective story "Colonel Zorin's Version" with Vsevolod Sanayev and Boris Ivanov. She tried on the role of the heroine, who is harassed by a telephone bully, in the crime tape "The City Accepted". I “rested” in the south together with Elena Proklova, Andrey Mironov and Nina Ruslanova in the love comedy “Be My Husband”.

She appeared in the role of a department store saleswoman in the musical television movie "The Adventures of Electronics". A small but bright role was presented to Valentina by director Vladimir Chebotarev in his spy production "The Ring from Amsterdam", where the actress played the student Lena.

A series of inconspicuous images lasted until 1983. The cult comedy "Pokrovskie Vorota", filmed by Mikhail Kozakov, embellished his creative biography. After the premiere on television, Valentina Voilkova woke up famous, although here she was given a small place.

The actress perfectly presented the girl on skates, who turned out to be a registry office worker. Rita is the dream of the main character of the film Kostik (Oleg Menshikov). The heroine skating on the ice is supported by four people. And this is not following the script - Valya did not know how to skate at all.

Voilkova brought beauty and charm to the detective picture "Charlotte's Necklace", where she tried on the image of the sister of the murdered blacksmith Viktor Korablev. The gripping film tells the story of a criminal gang that smuggles jewelry abroad. This work cemented the success.

Again, a wave of audience love hit Valentina in 1988. The beautiful actress appeared in the series Prisoner of the If Castle, joining Viktor Avilov, Yevgeny Dvorzhetsky, Anna Samokhina, Mikhail Boyarsky. In the film adaptation of the famous novel by Alexandre Dumas "The Count of Monte Cristo" presented the feminine and sophisticated Madame Héloise de Villefort.

The last two films with the participation of Valentina Dmitrievna were released in 1989. The woman starred in the drama "It was by the sea", where Svetlana Kryuchkova, Nina Ruslanova and Nika Turbina also shone. And a little later she joined the cast of the sad story "Romantic" about the unfulfilled dream of a young guy who chose money. At this, the filmography of the most beautiful actress of Soviet cinema was cut short.

The personal life of the actress took shape only in the late 80s. Valentina Voilkova accidentally met a Frenchman who had come to Moscow on a business trip. They say that the future husband was fascinated by the star of Soviet screens from the very first day. Soon there was an offer to start a family, the couple got married.

The woman was in no hurry to move to her husband's homeland. This step was prompted by the situation that arose in Russian cinema during the years of perestroika. Many actors were out of work, Voilkova stopped offering interesting roles. In 1991, she left her native country, not seeing any prospects for development here. The story is silent whether the actress has children.

Having left for France, Valentina Dmitrievna disappeared from the field of view of the fans. The woman did not call friends, did not give interviews to journalists. Once there was a rumor in the press that the artist died in a car accident. The tragedy allegedly happened in Paris. The Samara newspaper was one of the first to publish this news. The only thing that was alarming was that neither the representatives of the cinema, nor the colleagues in the theater officially confirmed the sad information.

As it turned out later, another woman, also an actress, died in an accident. However, Voilkova was not announced either. In 2009, fellow students from GITIS decided to find Valentina by sending a request for the "Wait for Me" project. The program, which was popular in every corner of the world, helped, the star of the Pokrovsky Gate made itself felt.

Valentina Voilkova called the actor Vladimir Zeldin and said that she lives with her husband in Paris. The spouse has his own company for dubbing and translating foreign films. The actress is also involved in dubbing tapes. I came to Russia only once to visit my parents' cemetery.
