Let's make a brief overview of the most outstanding works of Larisa Udovichenko in the cinema.
Bat
The role of Adele, Rosalind's maid, in the 1978 musical TV movie "Die Fledermaus", was Larisa Udovichenko's very first bright film work.
The picture is one of the most successful adaptations of operettas of the Soviet period. In it werethe best actors of their time are involved, it is brilliantly staged and accompanied by great music by Johann Strauss, and viewers have been getting an incredible boost of energy and positive emotions from watching it for more than forty years.
As for the role of Udovichenko, her Adele is a real thing. She hunts for acting glory and is ready for anything to achieve it, even for the insidious idea of the theater director. The director invited her to tempt and compromise not just anyone, but her own employer, Mr. Heinrich, during a masquerade ball. It should be noted that the twenty-three-year-old Udovichenko brilliantly coped with the image of the charming coquette Adele, and her performance became a real decoration of this holiday film.
The Married Bachelor
The musical comedy "The Married Bachelor", released in 1982, was one of the first and best films starring Larisa Udovichenko.
In this positive, light and funny melodrama, which awakens only a great mood in the viewer, the actress played the girl Tamara, who met the positive Sergey on the train. Tamara is in dire need of his help - to play the role of her husband in front of her parents, with whom she actually recently broke up. However, Tamara's father, an explosive and temperamental Georgian and a big boss, Guram Otarovich, turned out to be a very tough nut to crack.
"The Married Bachelor" is a purely Soviet comedy. Everything about her is great. She is very kind and funny, and sometimes even touching. The acting is just superb andafter viewing the picture, the soul becomes lighter.
Good sitting
In the midst of the widespread struggle against alcoholism, the lyrical comedy "We're sitting well" came out, telling about the adventures of five friends who unexpectedly faced the problem of getting the coveted bottle. The solution to this issue has grown into a truly epic adventure.
In this film, Larisa Udovichenko played the role of Lyalya, and Oleg Anofriev, Roman Tkachuk, Spartak Mishulin and Mikhail Kokshenov became her screen partners and friends.
Today this comedy can not be seen so often on the TV screen, but back in 1986, the tape "We sit well" became one of the leaders of the box office.
Bastards
The 1990 tragicomedy "Boys of Bitches" was based on a real rebellion of the actors of the Moscow Taganka Theater, caused by the deprivation of citizenship of its director Y. Lyubimov in 1984.
Udovichenko here plays Tatyana, the wife of the main character of the picture. A very difficult and important task fell on the shoulders of the actress - to make her heroine a kind of junction between the dramatic and comedic components of the entire film. In her role, Udovichenko is bright and free so much that she is not at all embarrassed for the sake of the common good to appear naked in front of an official of the Ministry of Culture in order to compromise him.
“Bastards” turned out to be a very vital and rather sad story, using the example of a theater troupe that showed the insides of any team,always having some kind of ideological leader and traitor.
A woman for all
Another striking example of an excellent film starring Udovichenko was the dramatic melodrama A Woman for Everyone, released in 1991.
The actress plays the lonely divorcee Anna, who has a friend in misfortune, Maria, who brings up two children and hopelessly loves Nikolai. But the man is married and cannot leave his family for Mary. When she dies, and he, not knowing this, finally decides to go to Mary, on the threshold of her house he is met by Anna, who has taken over the upbringing of the children of her deceased friend.
This film is surprisingly kind and heartfelt, despite the fact that it was filmed in the early 90s, when the screens of the country were occupied by "darkness" everywhere. The role of Anna has become one of the best works of Larisa Udovichenko.
“Dasha Vasilyeva. Private Investigator"
One of the iconic stages of the actress's work in the new millennium was this series, the first season of which started in 2003.
In this multi-part detective story, Udovichenko played a modest Moscow teacher, who suddenly fell into a huge inheritance. As a result, she was forced to move to a luxurious residence in the suburbs of Paris. Once in completely different living conditions, the main character finds solace in a new hobby - to unravel the most complex criminal cases.
This sophisticated adaptation of the workswriter Darya Dontsova turned out to be very successful and found many fans among the audience.
Anatomy of a Murder
The premiere of one of the last Russian films with Udovichenko "Anatomy of a Murder" took place quite recently - March 9, 2019.
The picture is a classic detective story with an interesting plot and absolutely incredible denouement of each of the stories told in it. The main character is a pathologist girl who quit her job and got a job as a nurse in a rich family living outside the city. However, she was soon to realize that all the people around her are not at all who they say they are.
Olga Alexandrovna, the heroine of Larisa Udovichenko, does not appear as often as we would like. But nevertheless, without her presence on the screen, the series loses its charm …
