July 9 marks the 87th anniversary of the theater and film actress, People's Artist of the RSFSR Zinaida Kirienko. In the 1950s-1960s. she was one of the most sought-after and popular Soviet actresses, whose all-Union fame was brought by the role of the wife of Grigory Melekhov in the film "Quiet Flows the Don". But after her triumph, she was forced to take long pauses in filming twice. In the new century, the actress returned to the screens, she is often invited to various television programs, but nevertheless, today Zinaida Kirienko is sure: the country no longer needs her …
Zinaida Kirienko admitted that she learned in her early childhood what pain and horror are. When she was 8 years old, the war began, and even after its completion, she continued to take lives. Zinaida still remembers how her classmate with friends found a shell that exploded in his hands. In the Stalin years, Zinaida's father Georgy Shirokov was repressed, and she never saw him again. Parents divorced when she was 3 years old, and she received a surname and patronymic from her stepfather - perhaps this is what saved both the ex-wife and daughter of Georgy Shirokov. Mother wanted to call her Aida, but her father wrote down Zinaida, and for a long time everyone called her Ida.
During the filming of The Quiet Don, she shared her terrible memories of her childhood with director Sergei Gerasimov, who was her teacher at VGIK. He listened carefully to her and said that no one had ever shared such revelations with him. And she confessed her love to him in response. Gerasimov paused and said: "". It was Gerasimov who convinced Zinaida Kiriyenko that she had chosen the right profession, and her revelations confirmed him in choosing an actress for the role of Natalia, because after all that she had experienced, she could convey someone else's pain as her own.
She was called one of the most beautiful and brilliant Soviet actresses, but this beauty did not bring her happiness in the profession. One of the high-ranking officials from the State Committee for Cinematography sought her favor, and after being refused, he took revenge - the actress did not act in films for 10 years, falling into the "black lists". Then she was saved by concerts (she was a singing artist) and creative meetings with the audience. When she returned to the screens, the crisis of the 1990s soon burst out, and there was again a forced pause in her film career.
In the 2000s. Zinaida Kirienko received offers to appear in films and TV shows, but rarely agreed - it was already a completely different cinema, in which she could not find a place for herself. The actress admitted: "".
Despite the fact that her creative path was very thorny, Zinaida Kirienko never regretted choosing the acting profession - she says that she simply could not live otherwise. The actress never complained about her fate and considered herself a very happy person, because she had bright roles, and the opportunity to work with the best directors, and a very strong and harmonious family, which she always considered the most important thing in life.
But in the profession, the actress does not consider herself unsuccessful. She says: "".
And in adulthood, Zinaida Kirienko looks good. She never resorted to the help of plastic surgeons and believes that she owes her beauty to God and her own principles and attitude: "".
Everyone who knows Zinaida Kirienko well calls her an amazingly loyal person - loyal to her profession, her family, her friends and her principles. Probably, this quality formed the core that did not allow her to break after the experienced trials, and allows her to stay in harmony with herself until now. It remains only to congratulate the wonderful actress on her birthday, wish her many years and assure that there are many spectators in her country and abroad who will never call her unnecessary!
The biggest loss for her was the departure of her husband, with whom they lived for 44 years: Zinaida Kirienko and Valery Tarasevsky.
