From childhood, the future actress Olga Bityukova did not doubt her talent and expected to become a famous actress. But the teachers of GITIS did not agree with her. The daughter of famous Soviet actors was rejected for a long time at the entrance exams.
The thorny path to a dream
The first experience on the big screen in the cinema she will take place at the age of 15, already then Olga Bityukova got a childhood dream. The girl will not hide her plans to become an actress on the theatrical stage or in the frame. In this, she will follow the example of her father and mother, but the path to its implementation will require tremendous effort. And a career will ultimately be less successful compared to her parents.
Before graduation, the young actress will still play in one film and will already record 2 tapes on her track record until adulthood. In those years, Soviet cinema often relied on children in the frame. Many screen stars began their journey to success this way. And Olga among them hoped for dozens of major roles and crowds of fans. After school, she will try to become a student of GITIS. But an attempt to get an acting education at a university will bring her great disappointment.
Olga Bityukova will fail entrance exams and transfer her plans for an acting career indefinitely.
Hereditary actress
The native Muscovite Olga Bityukova was born to an acting family. In 1958, a daughter of Stalin’s laureate Boris Bityukov and his wife Juliana Bugaeva were born.
With such parents, the girl back in school years to the envy of many peers gets a chance to test herself in the role of an actress. She will be trusted to play a role in the movie. After that, Olga Bityukova, an actress without a school certificate, at a young age, believes that she can afford to repeat the success of mom and dad and "write" her name in the history of Russian theater and cinema.
But instead, I had to get a technical education, Olga earned a prestigious position in one of the big companies in the 90s. For a long time, it was not the acting craft that fed her. But already as an adult, she still enters GITIS and, as a certified professional, makes her debut in the frame.
Career
However, for all the difficult years without education, Olga Bityukova, whose films gave her a dream in her childhood, did not sit without roles. Surprisingly, she constantly received invitations to shoot. Almost every year, Bityukova appeared on the screen.
Her track record today includes dozens of movie roles, many Olga played when she was forced to earn a living outside the movie.
At the same time, Olga Bityukova, an actress with vast experience in the cinema, remains in demand in the theater. She repeatedly ripped off applause from the stage and now takes part in performances.
Important Career Roles
In her career, it is worth highlighting two important films in a separate line:
- debut role in childhood - "Moscow - Cassiopeia";
- little-known work in the main female role in the film "Mountains Smoke."
In a science fiction story about a space journey at the call of an alien mind, Olga at the age of 15 already understood what she wants to do in life. And from that time she confidently walked towards the realization of a dream.
It is unlikely that the historical drama "Grief Smoke" was remembered by a layman from a mass audience, but in a cinematic party it became a notable event. There Bityukova showed and proved her real abilities in the frame. She was entrusted with playing a major female role with a complex character.
The premiere of both parts of this tape took place in 1989 during the difficult period of Olga's life. She then in adulthood had only to begin to prove her right to a place under the "acting sun".
In the eyes of her colleagues and directors, it was this work that more than others “revealed” her dramatic abilities.
Among her most famous works are the following:
- 9 seasons in the series “Kulagin and Partners” from 2004 to 2013;
- “Adolescents in the Universe” - the second picture from the actress’s childhood experience, taken in 1974;
- “Winter Evening in Gagra” (1985);
- Olga's role in “I Love. I'm waiting. Lena "in 1983, as well as Vera in the film" Vacation Krosha.
It is on these tapes that millions of viewers of different generations and preferences can remember her.
