In the nineties, a mysterious and strange blonde with an original manner of speaking and a specific facial expression began to appear on television more and more often. She became a constant subject of gossip and discussion. An extraordinary personality did not leave anyone indifferent. However, this article will not talk about the gossip column character, but about a talented actress, director, screenwriter and TV presenter, whose name is Renata Litvinova. The biography of this creative personality occupies an important position in modern Russian culture.
Renata was born in Moscow, in a family of doctors. As a child, the future screenwriter read avidly, watched feature films with enthusiasm, but did not like school at all. Actress Renata Litvinova later recalled her as something causing melancholy and loneliness.
Biography
Father's family belonged to an old Tatar princely family. The TV presenter Renata was named by her parents in honor of her aristocratic grandfather. However, the girl rarely saw her father, although she always talks about him with great tenderness and love. This man left the family a year after one was bornof the most extravagant personalities of our time. Renata Litvinova often recalls how she missed her father's love.
The biography of this extraordinary woman has always been extremely interesting for journalists. The TV presenter talks about her childhood with pleasure. But Renata Litvinova answers questions about ex-husbands and details of her personal life rather cautiously.
Biography, nationality, student years, her first love - all these moments are the subject of close attention of the tireless workers of the secular press. White spots in the life of an outstanding figure in Russian cinema are often filled with the speculations of journalists. Renata Litvinova herself speaks of her childhood as a period when she was left to herself most of the time: it was not easy to live on a doctor's salary, and her mother worked over shifts.
Despite the fact that the TV presenter did not see her father as often as she would like, Renata Litvinova keeps only the best and pleasant memories of her childhood and her family. The biography, personal life and career of her mother developed in the same way as that of millions of Soviet women. After the divorce, she never married, and the only thing that made up the meaning of her life was the happiness of her only daughter. Litvinova's mother spent most of her time at work. She is a surgeon by profession. The well-being of the family, however, was not particularly affected by the woman's high working capacity - money was chronically lacking.
Grandma
Renata usually spent her holidays with her maternal grandmother. This woman was an original personality, not without a creative streak. There were Poles and Ukrainians in the grandmother's family, therefore, Russian, Tatar, Ukrainian and Polish blood flows in Litvinova's veins.
Renata Litvinova talks about her grandmother with pleasure. The biography, personal life, character and origin of this woman distinguished her from most Soviet people. She spoke little about her father, but it is known that he was a white officer. She led a very active social life and therefore had many enemies. She also wrote poetry and kept track of her grandfather, who, despite his advanced age, was popular with women. The grandmother's temper was extremely unbridled, and her appearance was unusually bright. Perhaps this woman played a significant role in shaping the personality of the future actress and TV presenter.
Ugly duckling
Grandmother's vacation was a blessing. Staying at school is hopeless loneliness. Like many future beauties, Renata Litvinova had a rather awkward figure in her puberty.
Biography, height, weight, the presence of any external flaws of scandalous socialites are the subject of study by representatives of the yellow press. Renata Litvinova does not belong to women in whose career appearance played an important role. But still it is worth saying that nature did not deprive her of beauty either. Although, according to her own recollections, in childhood she was too tall, angular, awkward. Today, perhaps any woman will envy the parameters of the TV presenter (height - 170 cm, weight - 58kg).
Loneliness
As a child, Renata was almost always alone - she listened to radio plays at home, read Bunin's stories, Gogol's stories and was even interested in medical literature, which, due to her mother's professional affiliation, was a lot in the house. As for poetry, the future screenwriter was closest to Lermontov's poems, in which the theme of loneliness serves as a leitmotif.
Children's hobbies
Actress Renata Litvinova, whose biography contains facts that are rather curious for journalists, in her interviews prefers to indulge in a vivid artistic presentation of childhood memories. She went several times a week to a music school, which was not far from home. The road was tedious and tiring. Renata attended a dance ensemble, where she learned only the choreographic movements of Georgian folk dance. She also played athletics. In sports, according to Litvinova herself, she did not show any special achievements. But it was he who brought up in her such qualities as will, diligence and determination.
Under the pseudonym Rytkheu
It is worth moving on to the next question, which directly concerns not a girl from an ordinary Soviet family, but a famous and bright personality named Renata Litvinova. Biography, personal life, family and childhood hobbies are topics that have already been or will be discussed in this article. But where did creativity begin? And why did the daughter of a surgeon suddenly decide to write?
In adolescence, RenataI started writing short stories. But for some reason, when reading them to her friends and classmates, she was embarrassed to name the real author. And therefore she used the pseudonym Rytkheu. Renata borrowed it from a Chukchi writer. Whether the listeners were able to appreciate the literary gift of the novice author is unknown to us. It is only known that after graduating from school, Renata decided to enter VGIK, the screenwriting department, in order to learn writing skills from professionals. She managed to become a student of one of the most prestigious universities in the country the first time.
Student Renata Litvinova
Biography, personal life, photos and secrets of stars - all these are journalistic materials that will always be in demand. People are interested in knowing what a famous person is like in private life. The more secrets, the more crazy fantasies, as a rule, the biography of the star grows. And in order to understand what Renata Litvinova is like in ordinary life, it is better to listen to her own confessions than to read countless scandalous articles.
"Talent is beauty," Renata Litvinova once said. The biography, filmography and activities on television of this person will be discussed below. But it is worth saying a few words about that Litvinova, who at one time was not interested in anyone except her relatives. About that student who was the youngest on the course and looked at her classmates and teachers with the enthusiastic eyes of a girl who graduated from school yesterday. One of her teachers wasthe famous director Sergei Solovyov, who later became her friend and just at that time was preparing to shoot the cult film Assa. Classmates - Sergei Bashirov, Ivan Okhlobystin, Arkady Vysotsky. All of them were much older than Renata. And it was in her first year that she left the feeling of loneliness from which she suffered so much in childhood.
High school is an institution where talent can show up, but it doesn't happen often. It does not welcome eccentricity and dissimilarity to others. Therefore, at school, a gifted child often feels oppressed. Litvinova also experienced such sensations in childhood. And she began to feel completely different in the circle of creative, talented people. It is safe to say that the biography of Renata Litvinova, a person who made a certain contribution to the national cinema, began precisely within the walls of the Institute of Cinematography.
Beauty is talent
The first thing that came to the mind of a newly minted student, when she first glanced at those present in the audience, was the thought “How old and ugly they are.” Very quickly, the girl changed her mind, because talent became beauty for her. She admired the erudition and abilities of her new friends and strove to keep up with them.
Renata Litvinova does not like to talk about her first love, because she believes that this topic is too intimate, and there can only be one love. It is impossible to love many times. Love is not always joy and bliss, but alsoand pain. But without it, a person is nobody. This is the position of Renata Litvinova regarding the main human feeling.
Private life
The first marital status stamp in Litvinova's passport appeared when she was twenty-nine. Her husband was film producer Alexander Antipov. About him, as well as about the second wife, Renata Litvinova never allowed herself to speak badly. Her biography includes many significant meetings and acquaintances, but the screenwriter does not speak negatively about a single person in her life.
Marriage with Antipov did not last long. And soon Litvinova moved out of his apartment and again began to lead an independent lifestyle, in which, it should be said, she already had considerable experience. Immediately after graduation, Renata Litvinova lived separately from her mother, in a rented apartment. That is why she accepted the divorce with enviable fortitude, without unnecessary worries and blues.
Several years after the first unsuccessful marriage, Renata lived in another rented apartment, all alone. If you do not take into account the huge rat that shared shelter with her and behaved fearlessly enough. One of the colleagues once told the screenwriter that having such a “pet” in the house is a very good sign, and that Litvinova will certainly become famous and rich. Domestic cinema in those years was in a very deplorable state. But the prediction did come true. Renata Litvinova has become one of the most famous and highly paid personalities in Russian cinema.
Her biography contains information about another marriage, the birth of a daughter. With regard to achievements inprofessional field, this woman wrote more than ten scripts, played thirty-four film roles. At various times, Litvinova was involved in the theater, on television, directed music videos.
Filmography
The most famous films in which Litvinova took part include:
- “Border. Taiga romance.”
- Berlin Express.
- "The sky. Airplane. Girl.”
- "I'm not hurt."
- "I'll put myself in good hands."
- "Rita's last tale".
Fateful for Renata Litvinova, who did not even think about acting career, was the meeting with Kira Muratova. The director liked a girl with non-standard behavior, and she invited her to audition. But even after Renata failed the "casting", Muratova did not give up and wrote a role especially for the young actress. But the script for the film "Country of the Deaf" brought real fame to Litvinova.
