Larisa Luppian preferred once family life to a successful career and all-Union glory. For many years this woman has been known as the wife of the famous artist Mikhail Boyarsky. Does the actress regret the lost opportunities and does everything suit her in family life with such a famous person?
Larisa Luppian: biography, childhood
The girl was born in January 1953 in the hot city of Tashkent (now the capital of the Republic of Uzbekistan). She received a sonorous and beautiful name - Larisa Luppian. The nationality of the actress is difficult to determine unambiguously: Russian, Estonian, German and Polish blood flows in her veins.
The father left the family when the girl was still in kindergarten. The actress recalls that no one has ever really nursed her - basically the baby was left to herself. As a schoolgirl, Luppian Larisa Reginaldovna went to classes on her own, cooked breakfast for herself and did her homework.
The future artist had a warm relationship only with her grandmother, who constantly spoiled her and saved the best toys for her granddaughter. But afterdivorce of parents, the grandmother had to leave, because the mother took the girl to another city.
Larisa Luppian: photo, film roles
In 1974, young Luppian graduated from LGITMiK. But, despite her bright and attractive appearance, the girl never received the status of an all-Union celebrity.
And it's not even Larisa's diligence and abilities, but the fact that during her studies the artist met Mikhail Boyarsky. He just graduated from LGITMiK. It was then that their romance began, after which Larisa Luppian decided to focus on her personal life and be content with simple female happiness.
True, it was not possible to find family happiness right away: Boyarsky refused to marry. However, the girl stood her ground, and in the end the actors registered their relationship.
Larisa did not show much interest in cinema, but she managed to act in several films. Back in 1964, for the first time on television, a bright image of a future actress with a sonorous name Larisa Luppian flashed. The films "You are not an orphan", in which the artist starred as a girl, as well as the tape "Late Meeting" became iconic for Luppian.
Late Meeting
The melodrama "Late Meeting" was directed by Vladimir Shredel ("The White Poodle", "The Night Guest"). Alexei Batalov was invited to the main role, who embodied the image of Sergei Gushchin on the screens. The film begins with the fact that Gushchin is looking for his beloved, Natalya, all over Leningrad. And when he doesn't findgirl, recalls the story of their acquaintance.
The role of the same Natalia Proskurova, an aspiring theater actress, was played by Larisa Luppian. Feelings suddenly arise between Natalia and Sergey. But despite the fact that they are good with each other, the couple cannot decide on a relationship due to the big age difference. In addition, Gushchin is married. So they part, without confessing their feelings to each other.
In addition to Luppian and Batalov, such stars as Margarita Volodina ("Amphibian Man"), Tatyana Dogileva ("Pokrovsky Gates") and Mikhail Gluzsky ("Transit") were involved in the film.
Unfortunately, Larisa did not play the main roles in the cinema anymore. In general, her filmography includes only 15 works.
Television
Luppian Larisa Reginaldovna once tried herself on television as a presenter. As you might expect, she hosted a theatrical show called "Theatre Binoculars".
Theater
Larisa Luppian, whose biography is inextricably linked with the theater, is still entering the stage, despite the fact that she turned 62 in 2015.
Even during the years of study, the course of Larisa Luppian was taught right at the Leningrad City Council Theater. Therefore, while still a student, Larisa took the stage in the form of a princess in the play "Il trovatore and his friends." By the way, Boyarsky played the main role in this production.
It was at the rehearsals that the future couple really became close. ButLarisa recalls that she did not immediately fall in love with Mikhail. She was embarrassed by his bright appearance. However, Boyarsky was not going to retreat so easily, and soon Larisa began to fall in love with him. Mikhail tried in every possible way to patronize a small and defenseless girl. But when all the most “interesting” things happened between them, the womanizer quickly lost interest in his passion.
For Larisa, from now on, performing with him in the same theater has become a torment. The woman had the wisdom not to bombard the man with questions and complaints. A month later, Boyarsky returned to his beloved, and soon they got married. So side by side the couple and worked for over 20 years in the same theater.
Marriage with Boyarsky
Lupian never tried to step out of her famous husband's shadow.
There are a lot of rumors and talk around the marriage of Luppian and Boyarsky. After all, "d'Artagnan" was never distinguished by exemplary behavior. Meanwhile, Larisa lived with the actor almost all her life and did not particularly complain.
We must pay tribute to the patience of a woman. First, by hook or by crook, she lured her lover to the registry office, and then made him an exemplary family man. To journalists' questions about how the actress managed to tame Mikhail, Luppian replies that this can only be done with love and affection.
Immediately after his marriage, Boyarsky settled down and began to try to turn their house into a "full bowl". The actor to this day makes surprises for his wife and does not have a soul in his children. Luppian and Boyarsky survived everything together: the communal rooms, and Mikhail's addiction toalcohol. But today, this couple no longer remembers the past difficulties.
Children
Larisa Luppian has always tried to indulge her children with parental attention, to express her love for them as often as possible and, of course, not to scold. From childhood, she taught her offspring to be good manners: she took her to performances at the Mariinsky Theater, dressed in evening costumes and admired them.
Elizaveta and Sergey did not study well at school. There were triplets too. Then Larisa was in a hurry to hire tutors so as not to let the children down. Especially irrepressible was the energy of Lisa, who loved to laugh, joke, play pranks.
When her daughter studied at the theater, it was Larisa who persuaded her to start acting in films. The fact is that shooting while studying is not allowed for many students of theater universities, but Luppian was ready to “cover up the sins” of her daughter and help her “dodge.”
Larisa's eldest son serves as a government official. Moreover, the mother emphasizes that he does it exclusively honestly, without bribes.
Relationship with grandchildren
Larisa Luppian believes that family traditions are finally being revived in Russia today. First of all, she judges by the families of her own children and their many married friends. Most of all, the artist likes that in modern families, spouses do everything together: raise children, decide together which educational circles they should go to, etc.
Larisa herself has already become a grandmother three times. Her grandchildren regularly come to visit, since the family of the eldest son lives in St. Petersburg,and Elizaveta Boyarskaya often brings her grandson from Moscow to be nursed by his famous relatives.
