Vera Ivleva is a bright supporting actress. In the cinema, she played several dozen roles. But not a single main one. Nevertheless, during her lifetime, Vera Ivleva was popular among theatergoers. After all, this actress was once involved in most of the performances of the Lenkom Theater.
Childhood
Actress Vera Ivleva, whose biography began at the beginning of the war, was from the Moscow region. The parents of the future artist had nothing to do with art. The father was a shoemaker. Mother worked as a salesman in a rural store. But a simple worker-provincial environment did not prevent a girl from a provincial village from dreaming of a theatrical career.
Youth
After school, Vera Ivleva submitted a document to the school. Shchepkin. But it failed miserably. She managed to enter the theater university only on the third attempt. Between the entrance exams, Vera prepared hard, read a lot.
Theater and cinema
After graduating from high school, Vera Ivleva worked for several years in one of the theaters near Moscow. Then she was accepted into the Lenkom troupe. The actress served in this theater for more than twenty years.years.
Vera Ivleva is a bright, characteristic actress. She began acting in films in the early sixties. Her roles were small, but so memorable that sometimes her heroines overshadowed the main characters. Among the films in which Ivleva took part, the following paintings can be mentioned:
- "Twelve Chairs".
- "The Tale of Tsar S altan".
- "Ivanov boat".
- "Anna Petrovna".
- "For matches".
- "Thief".
- "Strawberry".
- "The Recluse".
This list is far from complete. Vera Ivleva, whose photo is presented in the article, played many episodic roles. And the viewer, having heard her last name, is unlikely to understand today that we are talking about the actress who played the fussy, caring mother in the heartfelt film “Children of Don Quixote”. He will hardly remember the performer of the role of the weaver in the film adaptation of Pushkin's fairy tale. And even more so, it will correlate this image with the name of Vera Ivleva.
But the acting profession is cruel. Few artists know audience devotion. Ivleva, on whose account there were exclusively episodic roles, today only true fans of Soviet cinema remember. But the real tragedy of this actress was loneliness. Having been married twice, having given birth to a daughter, in the last years of her life, Ivleva was forgotten by everyone.
Private life
The first husband of the actress was Dmitry Ivlev. He was military. She bore his last name all her life. In girlhood, the actress was Kislaeva. Dmitry and Vera lived together for seven years. According to one ofversions, her husband put her before a choice: career or family. Ivleva chose the theater because she could not imagine herself without a stage. Soon Dmitry left the family, leaving Vera and daughter Olga.
The second husband of Vera Ivleva was Naum Markzitzer. With this man, even after parting, the actress maintained a warm relationship. But Markzitzer emigrated to the United States in the early nineties. Ivleva met a relative of the legendary announcer - Yakov Levitan. However, this was not the kind of person with whom you can start a family. Jacob abused alcohol. Faith unsuccessfully tried to wean him from addiction. But she soon gave up. Ivleva broke up with Levitan and no longer connected her life with any man.
Cause of death
Ivleva got into an accident several times. The third case was fatal. In 1999, on Christmas Day, the actress went to church. According to acquaintances and colleagues, she was not a particularly believing person. But it was on that day that she confessed and took communion. And then she didn't come home.
She was found only two months later. Presumably, Ivleva fell under the wheels of a car. The driver did not report to the police, but hid the body in a snowdrift and covered it with branches. The culprit of the artist's death was never found.
No one came to the grave of the actress for more than ten years: neither colleagues, nor fans, nor even her own daughter. This is evidenced by the fact that the monument was erected only in 2011. And this was done by local activists who did not know the actress during her lifetime.
The daughter of the actress graduated from the Faculty of Physics and Mathematics. But the profession does not work. This is the only thing known about Ivleva's relatives. The official opening of the monument was attended by colleagues of the actress. Among them are Viktor Rakov and Igor Fokin. The only daughter did not come to the grand opening of the monument.
