The biography of the actress

Her father Nikolai Kryuchkov was a military man in Smersha - a Soviet counterintelligence organization, and then served as an investigator. The mother of the future actress worked in the personnel department of the Ministry of the Interior. There were two more children in the Kryuchkov family. Nikolai Kryuchkov raised all of them in severity, forced him to observe discipline.

I could wake up in the middle of the night to check my homework. Kryuchkova recalled: “My father was a very harsh person, I was always afraid of him. My soul did not worry anyone. Therefore, I learned to make decisions myself. ” She often performed at school concerts and home holidays.

She said: “I did not dream of being an actress, as schoolgirls participating in amateur performances usually dream. There was no firm decision, once and for all the selected path. I just knew, I felt that I should have some kind of special, unusual fate. Unusual, and that’s it. I don't know which one myself. " Then the future actress passed two rounds with excellent grades, but in the third failed and returned to Chisinau.

She got a job as a driver in the central statistical department of Moldova, and a year later she again went to Moscow to enter the theater institute. But it did not work out again. The second time Svetlana Kryuchkova did not return home. But after a few months, the money was not enough and Kryuchkova was forced to leave for Chisinau. At the request of her father, she got a job as a drug made chemical solutions to the laboratory at the Chisinau agricultural institute.

In the year, Kryuchkova tried to enter the university for the third time. However, it was still necessary to go there from Chisinau through Moscow, and in the capital's theater institutes the tests began earlier. Therefore, Kryuchkova again tried to go there. With excellent estimates, she was enrolled in the workshop of Vasily Markov. She got the role thanks to her first husband - actor Mikhail Starodub.

However, Starodub considered the comedy stupid and refused to play. At the entrance to the studio, the actress faced the director of the Big Change Alexei Korenev. He invited her to a rehearsal and offered to play the wife of Ganji, a teacher of Russian language and literature, Svetlana Afanasyevna. The director set me the task: “You are Svetlana Afanasyevna, the wife of Ganzhi.

He drags you into the room, and you resist with all your might. ” They began to rehearse. Zbruev drags me, but I feel that the forces are not equal - he wins. With despair, I bit him by the finger. Blood went. The director said: “That's it! But at home a telephone rang at home, and the assistant director said: "You will act, but only in a different role." I was shocked: I, a student, approved me almost without trial?!

Svetlana Kryuchkova, according to the book of journalist Fedor Razzakov, “idols of all generations” in the “Great Change”, Kryuchkova received the role of Nelly Ledenova, another student of the evening school. The song “Black and White” was written, which I perform in the picture. ” The film "Big Change" was shown on television in the year. The picture became important in the further career of Kryuchkova.

In the book “Who is in the World”, philologist Galina Shalaeva wrote: “The role of Nelli Lednava in the film“ Big Change ”was not only her first big work in the cinema, but also the very main role that defined her further fate as an actress.” At the box office, more than 50 million spectators watched the picture.
