They had interesting roles in their lives, adoration of fans, vivid novels, fame and prosperity. They were admired by millions of spectators, they were applauded by the first persons of the country, they were presented with awards and prizes. Their faces did not leave the screens and the front pages of magazines and newspapers. It seemed that in the life of celebrities everything was going well, and even over the years their fame and popularity did not fade. Why did famous artists remain lonely at the end of their lives?
Tatiana Samoilova
She starred in 20 films, but Tatyana Samoilova had two truly stellar works: the role of Veronica in the film "The Cranes Are Flying" and Anna Karenina in the film of the same name by Alexander Zarkhi.
And then she almost stopped appearing on the screens. One day she received news of her brother, who is dying after being injured. Tatiana was very attached to her younger brother. The news shocked the actress so much that she completely immersed herself in herself, ceasing to react to any external stimuli. Alexey Samoilov then survived, but the psyche of the actress could not cope with this blow. Since then, Tatyana Evgenievna from time to time ended up in a psychiatric clinic.
She was married four times, gave birth to a son, but at the end of her life she lived completely alone. Brother Alexei, also an actor, did not leave her with his attention, but lived with his family. The actress's son Dmitry emigrated to the United States, where he works as a doctor, and his star mother dreamed of seeing how he lives, but financial difficulties did not allow her to buy a ticket to America.
Tatyana Samoilova died on the day of her 80th birthday, on the day when a big creative evening was to take place in honor of the actress's anniversary. On the eve of the day when she could again go out on the red carpet and again feel the love that the audience generously endowed her with.

Marina Ladynina
The star of Soviet cinema, the beauty Marina Ladynina, after her divorce from her husband, lived alone and suffered greatly from lack of demand. She was not invited to the cinema, fearing the anger of her ex-husband Ivan Pyriev, she was denied a job in the theater, fearing that she would outshine all the other actors. And Marina Ladynina's reputation as a fighter for justice did not increase the management's desire to see the actress in the theater troupe.
At the funeral, Pyreva Marina Alekseevna admitted that she continues to love him. Later she became an actress of the Film Actor Theater, began to travel throughout the country with concerts, took vocal lessons, so that the poems that she read from the stage sounded brighter.
She lived alone for fifty years, and in the last decade of her life she was very closed, her friends and acquaintances hardly saw her. Naina Yeltsina helped her, arranging her in sanatoriums and boarding houses, buying food and leaving money. Next to the great actress was only her housekeeper, who actually protected Marina Alekseevna from communicating with friends. And after the death of the actress, many things disappeared without a trace and, most importantly, the archive of Marina Ladynina.

Faina Ranevskaya
Having survived an unsuccessful romance in her youth, Faina Ranevskaya never married. There was a short period in her life when the actress lived with her sister, who had returned from emigration. Isabella Allen (nee Feldman) lived with her sister for only three years, and then died. Faina Georgievna was acutely worried about the loss, but she always tried to maintain good spirits and look at the surrounding reality with a fair amount of irony.
She went on stage almost to the end of her life and was incredibly popular with the viewer. But returning home, where only the housekeeper was waiting for her and the dog, Boy, who was once rescued by her, she habitually grumbled that with so much love for her, there was no one to go to the pharmacy.
Faina Ranevskaya was almost 88 years old when she died of a heart attack. The great actress was buried next to her sister.

Tamara Nosova
After the first appearance of the young actress on the screens, they started talking about her talent and beauty. She could play both a romantic heroine and a comedic one. Tamara Nosova's talent for reincarnation was unique. And it was in the cinema that she saw the meaning of life for herself. She went through several novels, was officially married twice, but the actress had no children. The actress became pregnant at the age of 47, but instead of going to the hospital and taking care of herself, she went on another tour. The child could not be saved. Tamara Makarovna was more than anything in the world afraid of being unnecessary and forgotten. But that's exactly what happened to her.
The actress lived her last years in complete loneliness and terrible poverty. The actress told everyone a story about her nonexistent daughter. When Tamara Nosova completely stopped appearing on the street, the neighbors sounded the alarm. The door was opened with the police, and in the room they saw a seriously ill actress, around which there were heaps of cockroaches and rodents. She passed away in March 2007.

Inna Ulyanova
Inna Ulyanova starred in films all the time, but real success came to her in 1982, after the role of Margarita Pavlovna in the film "Pokrovskie Vorota". On the screen, she embodied the image of a strong-willed woman, but in life she was charming, open and very sociable.
The actress had many fans who sought her attention, but she was married only once. And she experienced an incredibly beautiful love story with a French pilot, who remained for her the ideal of a man forever. But Inna Ulyanova did not dare to leave for France with her lover. They corresponded until his death.
After 2003, the actress completely ceased to be invited to the cinema, even to episodic roles. Oblivion and loneliness forced her to seek solace in alcohol. She brought a lot of trouble to the neighbors, but it was they who sounded the alarm when Inna Ivanovna stopped making noise and left the apartment. When the door to the apartment was opened, Inna Ulyanova was unconscious. She died of cirrhosis on her way to the hospital in 2008.

For some, loneliness is a universal tragedy and endless sadness, while for others it is an all-consuming longing, from which there is no escape, but not in the case of the charming heroine of the works of the artist Yaoyao Ma Van. In her illustrations, she shows the other side of such a frightening state, as if reminding that there are no hopeless situations, even when you are left alone with yourself and your own thoughts.
