Actress Svetlana Orlova was remembered by everyone as a young girl. She bribed her audience with spontaneity, unearthly charm and big beautiful eyes. She became a godsend for many directors who made children's films and fairy tales. The roles fell one after another, and this was her moment of glory, which rushes after her all her life. The stage has become her home, and she still continues to delight her audience. Unfortunately, the roles in the 2000s were secondary and short, but even they brought pleasure to the actress, and she at least sometimes reminded of herself.

Biography

In 1956, on April 8, Svetlana Orlova was born in the city of Kaliningrad, whose biography is not known to everyone. More detailed information about her appears after Orlova became a famous actress of the USSR. She spent her childhood and youth in Alma-Ata. From an early age, the girl aspired to art, so she asked her mother to enroll her in ballet. After graduating from school, Svetlana continued to study choreography, but already at a school that collaborated with the Bolshoi Theater. In 1974, Orlova graduated from her studies and worked as an actress in a ballet ensemble for two years. The girl was very capable, and many directors became hernotice, so she limited her further performances in ballet to contracts. Ballet did not stop her from getting carried away with cinema, which became the meaning of her life. Since the 70s, she has appeared in films that brought her dizzying fame. After Orlova fully began acting, the ballet faded into the background.

Highest hour

The first time Svetlana Orlova announced herself in 1970, when director B. Buneev invited her to play the role of Marinka in the children's film "A Farm in the Steppe". After the overwhelming success in the picture for children, she wanted to develop more and try herself in other roles. Fortunately, directors began to give roles in dramatic films. The first of them was "Yesterday, Today and Always", where Orlova played the role of Anyuta.

Her charming appearance made her appear in children's fairy tales. And already in 1975, a new tape “Finist - the Clear Falcon” appeared on the screens, where Svetlana Orlova played the title role. The actress became very popular, and every director wanted to shoot her in his film. The girl was flattered by such attention, and she did not miss the chance to take part in the next film work, it was not important for her whether it would be the main role or an episodic one. In the period from 1970 to 1980, Svetlana Orlova practically did not leave the set.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Orlova disappeared from the cinema, as she became unclaimed, like other famous actors of those times. And only after many years Svetlana appeared in a cameo role inmovie "The Truth About the Snaps". After this picture, they started talking about her again and remembered her stellar past. But everything stopped there, and the door to the set closed again for Svetlana.

Tale of life

Starting from the 70s of the last century, the actress regularly starred in films, once a year a movie with her participation appeared on the screen. During all this time, she tried her hand at more than 43 films. The genres in which Svetlana starred were varied, but most of all she preferred dramas, comedies, melodramas, fairy tales. Her last participation was in the film "How the idols left", filmed in 2005.

Personal life of a Soviet actress
