Lyudmila Zaitseva (Shura Yarmolyuk)
The actress was born on July 21, 1946. Place of birth - Vostochny farm, Krasnodar region. The family did not live well. Parents were hereditary peasants, they themselves worked in the field for days and taught their daughter to work.
After graduating from eight classes, Lyudmila transferred to evening school. In the afternoon she worked, and in the evenings attended classes. Even then, a young girl dreamed of becoming an actress. That is why she decided to go to Moscow. There she received an offer to work in the Ryazan Youth Theater. Lyudmila agreed. Having worked in Ryazan until 1966, the actress has accumulated enough experience to enter the theater school. Schukin.
The film debut took place already in 1967, when Lyudmila was a student. She played a cameo role in A. Konchalovsky’s melodrama "The story of Asya Klyachina, who loved, but never married." But a real rise in popularity occurred when the famous drama by S. Rostotsky “And the Dawns Here Are Quiet ...” appeared on the screens. Then, unconditional success in the role of Shura Yarmolyuk in “Hello and Goodbye”. The actors of this film (all without exception) perfectly performed their roles. Lyudmila Zaitseva is the decoration of the picture, the embodiment of decency and dignity, morality and beauty.
The actress is still filming a lot. If we talk about recent work, then it can be seen in films such as "Agitation Brigade", "Witch Doctor", "Affectionate May."
Oleg Efremov (Grigory Stepanovich Burov)
The artist was born in Moscow in 1927. The famous Arbat courtyards and corridors of the huge metropolitan communal flat were a place for games for little Oleg all his childhood. In 1945, the future artist entered the acting department of the Moscow Art Theater School, after which he delighted young spectators on the stage of the Central Children's Theater for seven years.
And in 1956 he organized his own theater, Sovremennik, where a thinking audience could see the masterpieces of drama, each of which, thanks to Efremov’s talent, became a “theater hit”.
In parallel with his work in the theater, this great artist periodically appeared in the cinema. His rare organics, mischievous temperament and rich imagination made it possible to give each character a special uniqueness, thanks to which all his characters became idols of millions of spectators.
And in 1970 he headed the Moscow Art Theater, at that time the theater was in a state of deep stagnation. He was able to give him a second life by staging such grandiose performances as "The Copper Grandmother" based on the play by L. Zorin, "The Seagull" by A.P. Chekhov, "Possible meeting", etc.
Oleg Efremov was married several times. His eldest daughter Anastasia was born in a civil marriage with
Irina Mazuruk. And from
Alla Pokrovskaya, with whom he lived a few happy years, his son Mikhail was born, at the moment he is one of the most popular actors in Russian cinema.
Oleg Efremov died on May 24, 2000.
Mikhail Kononov (Mitka Yarmolyuk)
Mikhail Kononov played the role of a negative character in the film "Hello and Goodbye." Actors, it happens, become hostages of one image. Mikhail Kononov, before his role in this picture, was considered a specialist in lyrical heroes. However, the brilliantly played role of the prodigal villain Mitka proved the versatility of his acting talent.
This great actor, forgotten by his colleagues and friends at the end of his life, was born on April 25, 1940 in Moscow. After graduating from the theater school. Shchepkina, he became a member of the Maly Theater troupe, in which he played until 1968.
The film debut took place in 1961, when a young Misha played the role of Vitka in Ivan Pyryev’s film “Our Common Friend”. He starred a lot. Where was it filmed? “Hello and goodbye” is a picture that changed the viewers about Kononov. Before that, he played, as a rule, simple-minded simpletons, and then appeared as a negative character.
The actor lived 38 years with his wife Natalya. The couple did not have children. Mikhail Kononov, who played so many roles, has been appearing less and less on the screens since the mid-80s of the last century. He often refused offers, considering that it is not necessary to exchange on trifles. I agreed only to participate in those paintings that I considered worthy of the viewer to see them.
The last years of Mikhail Kononov passed in poverty: there was not enough money for basic human needs. Perhaps that is why for a long time the pains in his heart that troubled him so suddenly led to his death. He died on July 16, 2007 in one of the capital's hospitals.
The film "Hello and Goodbye": actors and supporting roles
Actress Natalya Gundareva played the role of the barmaid of Hope, who can not find her happiness. Takes the courtship of Vaska and has far-reaching plans for him. And Vaska, who was played in the film by Viktor Pavlov, is proud of his clean passport and is not going to get married.
The activist of the social activist Rakov, who strove to embody Shura his brother-accountant, was played by actor Borislav Brondukov.
Of course, the film “Hello and Goodbye” can be attributed to the number of ageless Soviet films. The actors and the roles that they performed allowed the audience to see from the inside the life of the village people, where everyone lives his own dramatic fate.
