Galina fell under his crazy charm literally at first sight, and at first he considered her too small for a relationship. Stanislav Govorukhin gladly accepted signs of attention from his many fans, and Galina cried at night from resentment. And yet fate has firmly intertwined their lives: for half a century they have been invariably happy in their love.

Love is like an obsession

After graduation, Galina was brought to the Odessa Film Studio by her father, who worked as a decorator right there. She was admitted to the editing department just at the time when Stanislav Govorukhin was filming his film "Vertical" at the film studio. Galina looked at the photographs of the film crew for a long time: all the actors are young, beautiful. And only the director did not make an impression on her: bald and old. But colleagues in the shop convinced young Galya that it was impossible not to fall in love with Govorukhin.

And she fell in love. The very moment I saw him and heard his voice for the first time. He possessed incredible charm, and Galina immediately became his victim. The first love came to her, forcing her to think about the object of her passion day and night. And she was not attracted by those very young and beautiful actors, whose photographs she viewed with such interest. Even Vladimir Vysotsky could not attract the attention of a young woman from Odessa.

When Stanislav first asked her out on a date, she was soaring with happiness. And then she continued to suffer from the unknown. He did not offer her a serious relationship, did not talk about the future. In addition, legends continued to circulate about his victories on the love front. The girls in the shop were constantly gossiping about his new passions. She listened, and in the evenings she roared into the pillow from her unspoken love, from jealousy and pain.

Hopelessness

She had almost come to terms with the fact that there would be nothing else between them. Therefore, I began to meet with Lembit Ulfsak. She liked him, but she could not forget Govorokhin either.

The director himself, having learned about the upcoming romance of the charming Galina with an Estonian, immediately became more active. He did everything to make her literally choke with love again. But it seems that he was not going to call her to marry.

When rumors reached the girl about the relationship of her lover with Natasha Serush, she completely despaired. And she married her longtime admirer. True, the marriage did not even last a week. She started dating Govorukhin again.

Conscious happiness

Galina was happy. She realized that it was not easy for her with him, and without him it was absolutely impossible to live. And she deliberately decided to be happy, not paying attention to conventions. She met her love and decided not to lose her again.

He touchingly took care of her and her family, helped with the apartment when they had difficulties. She answered him with complete trust and boundless love. As a result of her illness, she could not have children, but motherly fell in love with her son Stanislav from her first marriage.

They signed a few years later, when they did not want to let the single Stanislav Govorukhin go on a business trip to Paris. True, that time they never had a chance to wander around the Champs Elysees, the director was never able to inspire confidence, even when he got married.

And she never regretted that she tied her fate with Stanislav Sergeevich. He became her beloved husband, friend, teacher in one person.

The secret of family longevity

Over time, Galina left work, devoting herself to her family. She happily waited for him from work, cooked his favorite dishes and listened to his stories about the day she lived. He took little care of himself, but always strove to help his family and friends.

Galina Borisovna very wisely built her family happiness. She never accompanied her husband on the set, unless he specifically invited her. She believed that the spouse would only interfere with the director during the filming process. Work for Govorukhin has always come first. Even when he invited her to the shooting, she was with him not an idle wife, but an assistant in editing and collecting footage.

In separation, Stanislav Sergeevich wrote her touching letters, which she keeps today, sometimes rereading.

When critics could not appreciate the film "The Meeting Place Cannot Be Changed", Govorukhin, fleeing depression, undertook to make repairs in their apartment with his own hands, and she prayed that this period would end quickly, and her husband's eyes shone with inspired fire again.

Galina Borisovna was always jealous of her husband. To work, to friends, to those minutes and hours that he spent away from her. The scene of jealousy rolled once, when he came home in the morning. She broke all the dishes in the house, and the director had to just run away from the apartment, waiting for her anger.

But she always had the feminine wisdom to trust her husband. The main thing for her is the very weather in the house. If a man is loved, taken care of, his opinion is taken into account, then he will forever settle where he is warm and comfortable. They have been happy for half a century, so do we need any more proof of his love?

The secret of a long family relationship of this family is in female wisdom and tact. It's not for nothing that another eminent director Mark Zakharov believes that
