For almost half a century, in all polls, viewers in our country called him their favorite actor. And among the whole series of his diverse heroes, the legendary Stirlitz, whom many perceive as a symbol of the Russian intelligence officer, became an unsurpassed fate-role. Vyacheslav Tikhonov himself said that he could not let his viewer down - agree to act in consumer goods, because he had the honor to live with the image of Maxim Maksimovich Isaev, and this is a huge responsibility. Tikhonov was an officer and a MAN to the marrow of his bones. Not only in the cinema, but also in life, especially in the family. His widow Tamara Ivanovna Tikhonova is a non-public, closed person, she does not give interviews. On the anniversary of the death of our beloved actor, we nevertheless risked calling her to find out what Vyacheslav Vasilyevich was behind the scenes, at home, "without a uniform." And we heard this dramatic story, which, to be honest, shocked us with its injustice. "Everybody forgot about me" - Tamara Ivanovna, how do you feel?- I started with a common question. - It’s even strange for me to hear that you called Tamara Ivanovna to the phone. It seemed to me that everyone thought that I was already dead! - The resentment in his voice was poorly concealed. - After the death of Glory, everyone thinks that I am gone. But Tamara Ivanovna is still, thank God, alive! Everyone just forgot about it! - Yes you! We remember you very well! And we know that you were a support to Vyacheslav Vasilyevich!

Widow of Vyacheslav Tikhonov: I hear his voice all the time

She was a support, yes. And I myself lost my footing 12 years ago when I got on crutches. I complain about poor health care, now paid. I need medical help, but they demand such huge money from me, which I simply don’t have! - The widow of such a great man as Tikhonov cannot get a FREE medical care?! - Like this. See what time we live in. You have to pay for everything. I don't leave the hospital. I am constantly sick. And now I'm trying to get into a sanatorium. I am disabled, widow People's Artist. And they tell me: pay a hundred thousand rubles to get into a sanatorium, and even for an escort - one hundred thousand. Where can I get that kind of money? I live on a pension. I have a daughter. She is raising two small children. I have an official paper that the widows of the Heroes of Socialist Labor plus People's Artists of the USSR, like me, are entitled to cash benefits for treatment. But today I can't get free help. I need a sanatorium where they treat problems of the musculoskeletal system, where there is a pool, I need to swim. I can barely walk on crutches. I need to strengthen my unfortunate muscles on one leg, and just save the other leg. The heart is also a problem. I don't talk to anyone, so no one knows. And it’s uncomfortable for me to talk about my illness, it’s embarrassing to complain. And yet we treat widows like this! - So many different funds are open!- There are a lot of funds, but there is no help. Maybe you ask - someone will respond? It would be nice if someone could help. When Slava was alive, he and I were placed in the Barvikha sanatorium. There was attention. And after the death of her husband, there is no former attention. We are living in a very difficult time. People have become callous... - It turns out that the state did not oversight ...- If our state looked after everyone, people would live better. Unfortunately, it is not. - Tamara Ivanovna, we will definitely try to help you. Shame on you for being so careless.- Thanks. Call me ... And yet, despite her condition, Tamara Ivanovna found the strength to talk with us a little and remember her life with Tikhonov ...

“I preferred the French groom Tikhonov” - Tamara Ivanovna, I read in the press that you met Tikhonov on the set?- Oh, you know, there were so many rumors, many versions about us were written in the press, and everything is not true. We didn't meet him on set. We made a symbolic acquaintance - at the dubbing of the French film "Look for a Woman". Slava voiced the Man. And I, as a professional translator, translated several scenes from the film, helped in dubbing. By the way, the woman was voiced by actress Nina Evgenievna Menshikova, the wife of the director Rostotsky, then we were friends with families. I talked with Nina until her last days. In general, we met Slava at the studio. He made an impression on me. And he liked me at first sight. I was not like his entourage of actresses. He saw that I was an educated, intelligent girl, not like those he was used to seeing around him. In the sense that ... oh, well, in many ways! Culture, education, upbringing, good body, pleasant appearance, of course, of course - all this attracted him. We quickly developed a relationship. In fact, Slava came up with an excuse - he asked me to help read the letters that he receives from France. I agreed. I soon realized that this was just an excuse to get to know me better. Our relationship developed rapidly. I then had a French fiancé, with whom I was going to leave for France. I had to not go to France, to stay with Slava! - Exchanged a Frenchman for a Russian actor?!- Love swirled! Glory was an interesting man, gallant, courteous... - Apparently, you are a unique woman!- Yes, what a unique! You see, now culture and education are not valued. And then it was very much appreciated. In addition, I was young, I was 24 years old, and he was 40 years old. - Did you have a wedding?- Yes. Not like what is now accepted. We had magnificent wedding because famous people came. There was registration at the registry office. None long dresses I didn't have a veil. This was not accepted in my family. I was wearing a short mini dress, no diamonds. And not because it was not possible, but just because we thought it was necessary. More modestly ... We got married during the filming of the film "We'll Live Until Monday." His role as Melnikov is my favorite... “Mordyukova did not understand his subtle soul”

- Tikhonov's first wife Nonna Mordyukova said that it was very boring to live with Tikhonov. In her expression, he was like a cracker, staring at one point and silent.- She could not understand his subtle soul. Tikhonov is a wonderful person! A wonderful family man. Caring, compassionate, compassionate. We did not like feasts, but we liked to sit, talk, read. He worried with his heart for his homeland, for his profession. He chose only human roles in which it was possible to reveal the human qualities of the hero ... He is a sensitive person. And next to him, lilacs bloomed in my soul ... - It's just that for the people there was a memory of a couple of Tikhonov - Mordyukov ...- I don’t know for what people, sorry ... How did he escape from her fifty years ago and didn’t remember anything pleasant about that life ?! What I know about that life of his is unpleasant. She was, excuse me, his youthful first woman, that's all. And the fact that he ran away and how he lived on the bench, only to not live there ... It is indecent to talk about this topic. He didn't even say anything about her death. Regrets and all. She called when she was dying, said she was asking for forgiveness. He said: and I beg your pardon. So it is necessary and accepted in the Russian people. Daughter Anya was born in our marriage. Vyacheslav Vasilyevich doted on his grandchildren, which our daughter gave him. Anna was very fond of. I lived with Vyacheslav Vasilyevich for 42 years. It probably means a lot. I had many happy moments with him. - Vyacheslav Vasilyevich had the film "Seventeen Moments of Spring". And the moment with him, which you remember as the MOST bright?- The brightest one and only does not happen. The brightest moments are in the soul and in secret. They don't talk about them... I can't remember one picture! I have so many of them pop up at night in a dream. I have a huge portrait of him hanging in front of the bed. I live in our room with him. Here everything is as it was with him. His portrait is from the film "Seventeen Moments", where he sits on the ground in thought, is going to go to Berlin ... remember that last frame. And I talk to him... He comes to me in a dream, just as if alive. If we talk about bright moments with him - they are just very intimate (embarrassed). Sometimes you wake up, and you feel like a living person is right next to you. I wake up and - as if with him. Sometimes I shudder, as if he is near. So it's all hard. And I hear his voice all the time. A real live voice.

- Is it hard for you without a husband?- Oh, well! Of course. Therefore, all the sores have become aggravated ... (Suppressing sobs.) Here is my grandson standing next to me, saying: “Grandma, why are you crying?” Turning to her grandson: “Slavochka, why am I crying, I remember my grandfather and cry.” Grandson Slava is called like a grandfather. Slavochka also remembers her grandfather. He tells me: "Don't cry." Everyone, I won't cry... - Tikhonov gave the impression of a very warm person.- He was very kind person. But to outsiders he gave the impression of a reserved person. It was closed to people. He was friendly with everyone. But even unsmiling... - They say that just bags of letters came to him from fans.- There were a lot of letters. Slava read them, answered someone. And now letters are coming, but episodically, such memorable ones. The current generation of the young does not write. It really does not know what kind of artist this is ... But the letters have all been preserved. Now they are with Anna's daughter. Anya will write a book about her father, she has already signed a contract. Letters at work. - You say that he was a worried person. And why should he worry - he has no role, then success!- He passed every role through himself, through his heart, through his soul. He was very concerned about each of his work. He was preparing for the role of Bolkonsky in the film "War and Peace". And then he looked at the picture and was upset - it seemed that he could not do what he planned. I took it dramatically, I wanted to leave the profession. But an invitation came to star in the film "It was in Penkovo". And he was inspired new job. He devoted himself to the cause, to the profession. He LIVED a profession. The whole country loved him. What is it like to be the wife of a man with whom the entire female population of the country is in love?- Not easy. But we were happy. He valued what he could do in his work. Who was he friends with?- He was very friendly with the director Stanislav Rostotsky ... He spent the last years alone. Friends all left for another world... His grandchildren made him happy. For them, for their fate, the soul ached ...

"Brezhnev personally congratulated" - Did your couple communicate with politicians?- In your understanding politicians who is this? If we take figures of culture, cinema and the arts a - this is also high level was. The person who advised Slava on Seventeen Moments was very a famous person, deputy head of the KGB Tsvigun. Unfortunately, a tragedy happened to him, which we experienced ... Of course, Slava and I were at various receptions in the Kremlin. They did not communicate directly with Brezhnev. And Vyacheslav Vasilyevich talked to him on the phone. I personally received congratulations from him when Brezhnev gave him the Hero of Socialist Labor - the only actor who received this title at the age of 50! We even have an audio recording of the conversation with Brezhnev. I have it in my archive, for memory. - They wrote that you were very sick. And so they lived separately with Tikhonov last years. - They didn’t talk about my illness. Our family relationships with Vyacheslav Vasilyevich they distorted everything in every possible way. Vyacheslav Vasilyevich was a decent person. He was a family man. - And what was he like in everyday life? His favorite dish? - He was unpretentious. Porridge, something light, dietary, that's all... - How will you remember Vyacheslav Vasilyevich?- We'll go to the cemetery on the fourth. Thanks to the fans, there are always fresh flowers on his grave. Then at the dacha we will remember for family table. People will come, there are not many of them. Who was for nine, for forty days, they will come to remember. The closest. We will order a prayer service in the church. As it should be. Unfortunately, after death, people showed themselves in such a way that we do not receive attention from them. - I heard that Armor is very warm to the memory of Vyacheslav Vasilyevich.- Yes, Armored attentive person. It's nice to be respectful. But not everyone behaves this way. Now a film is being made for TV in memory of Vyacheslav Vasilyevich, the daughter turned to many actors, there are those who did not respond. And it was very surprising to me. Daughter Anna registered the Vyacheslav Vasilyevich Tikhonov Foundation. But no one helps the fund. No one applies, and, probably, does not know about such a fund. They say behind every great man there is a great woman...- Unfortunately, it is forgotten. Even great people are forgotten. And as for their wives... Since I'm disabled, I don't go anywhere, they buried me a long time ago. Unfortunately, respect and love, and interesting, good life left in the past. And now, excuse me, a terrible old age, which you would not wish on anyone. Even the daughter thinks with horror what will happen next. And I tell her with horror that, unfortunately, old age comes quickly. I had interesting life, but it's a pity that she passed. - I wish you health and courage. We loved the actor Tikhonov very much and will try to help the woman who has been with him for almost all his life. Thank you! Afterword After talking with Tamara Ivanovna, we contacted the Vympel-Garant Special Forces Veterans Fund and Colonel Valery Kiselev and agreed that Tikhonov's widow would be assisted in obtaining a free ticket to a sanatorium. We will be glad if various funds and unions also remember the actor's widow.

Vyacheslav Vasilyevich led a secluded life, because he had no one to be friends with. Best friend and beloved director Stanislav Rostotsky (he shot Tikhonov in many of his films), close comrades-colleagues Yuri Nikulin, Nikolai Kryuchkov died. And it's hard to find new friends in old age. Tikhonov lived in a fertile place - in Nikolina Gora. Here he built a red brick house - exactly the same as Stirlitz's in the film. When friends were alive, he often and with pleasure went fishing with them. He was accompanied by the dog Styopka - a mongrel mongrel was thrown to Tikhonov as a puppy. But about a year ago, four-legged friend trouble happened. The dog disappeared, and after a while someone threw Vyacheslav Vasilyevich his collar. Alone, the actor stopped leaving the house altogether. Whiled away the days in front of the TV, slowly drank. Often reviewed his work in the cinema. Tikhonov could not come to terms with the fact that life was coming to an end.

It's sad, but there was no one to cry at Tikhonov's coffin. By the end of his life, he had only two close people - his wife Tamara and daughter Anna. These two women made up all Tikhonov's happiness and all his punishment. Few people know that the hero on the screen, a handsome man, self-sufficient and independent, in ordinary life Tikhonov was a very gentle and helpless person. It was this “spinelessness” of his that once pushed Nonna Mordyukova, his first wife, away from him. The Don Cossack Mordyukova herself was a woman of hot temper and just twisted ropes out of him, trying to stir him up. Tikhonov's patience ended only when he caught his wife Nonna with her lover. And when Tikhonov slammed the door, Mordyukova was even delighted: “Well, finally, at least some kind of emotion!” Their son Volodya was then 13 years old, and despite the separation of his parents, he received the full love of both parents. True, she did not save him from a tragic death.

From the age of 18, Volodya Tikhonov became addicted to drugs. To save their son from addiction, both Tikhonov and Mordyukova all the time patronized the guy for different roles. Volodya resisted, but played. Soon Volodya fell in love with actress Natalya Varley, seeing her brilliant game in " Caucasian captive", They got married and gave birth to Tikhonov's grandson Vasily. But soon divorced...

When Vyacheslav Tikhonov was already 40 years old, he married a second time. His chosen one was the 25-year-old teacher Tamara. They met while working on the French film "Man and Woman", where the actor voiced the role of the main character, and Tamara Ivanovna was at that time a French teacher at the Institute international relations- Helped with translation. The girl was married, but for the sake of Vyacheslav she broke up with her husband. Soon in new family daughter Anya was born.

Unlike the bright and sometimes overly emotional Nonna Mordyukova, Tamara was a match for Tikhonov - just as restrained and silent. However, it was this inconspicuous woman who managed to keep her husband under tight control for many years. Tikhonov coordinated all his roles with her, reported on each scene with a hint of love. Tamara Tikhonova was literally obsessed with jealousy! Possibly due to difficult relationship With his wife, with age, Vyacheslav Vasilyevich began to act less and less. And then it stopped completely. In old age, the wife's jealousy became pathological. Tamara Ivanovna literally "was on duty" on the phone. If Tikhonov was asked by a female voice, she threw a tantrum. Most of all got from Tamara Tikhonova to young journalists.

- Vyacheslav Vasilyevich was very fond of communicating with young people, - says the "victim" - journalist Anna Vershinina. He liked to share his experience. Yes, and he loved to flirt with young maidens. Once, when I arranged an interview with Tikhonov on the phone, Tamara Ivanovna grabbed the phone from his hands and yelled: “I know, this is your mistress !!!” It's funny! Tikhonov was 80 years old.

“I remember how everyone was surprised that Tikhonov was not at Nonna’s funeral,” says Nonna Mordyukova’s sister Natalia. - I thought then - God be his judge. But then I remembered his crazy Tamara. She probably didn't let him in. Because Slava Nonnochka himself respected, and after all, they were not strangers. And his wife even forbade them to communicate on the phone.

Tamara Ivanovna so tormented Tikhonov with her jealousy that in the end the couple divided the house in half and lived like that until Tikhonov's death: Vyacheslav Vasilyevich in one half, Tamara in the other. Vyacheslav Vasilievich stopped wearing wedding ring, and Tamara Ivanovna said that Tikhonov ruined her life. To calm her nerves, she began to drink heavily and attempted suicide several times. Tikhonov's daughter Anya lived in the Moscow apartment of her parents, but in order to control her mother, she often began to visit the suburbs. Tikhonov was happy - so he could see his tiny grandchildren - twins Slavik and Gosha.

They said that Vyacheslav Vasilyevich even had to meet with his son Volodya from his first marriage in the garage. When Volodya died of a drug overdose (he was only 40 years old), Tikhonov tried to help his son's second wife and his grandson. But the actor's wife and daughter quickly stopped his noble impulse and forbade him to communicate with "former" relatives.

The moment came when it became clear that you can make good money on the actor Tikhonov. Anna and her husband organized a small film studio, where they began to make films with the participation of Vyacheslav Vasilyevich. Anna managed her father's affairs, refusing to give interviews to all film companies and TV channels. By the 80th anniversary of her father, she let him in only one channel - "First", and then for a huge fee. Konstantin Ernst personally paid 15 thousand dollars for the shooting from his own pocket! Naturally, Tikhonov did not receive a penny of this money. On the same anniversary, the sponsors of the festive evening at the Cinema House presented the great actor with a luxurious car. But he never rode it either. Anya unfolded good business in the name of the father. With this money, she supports her family and pumps her mother out of hard drinking. And as for the desires of Vyacheslav Vasilyevich himself, few people considered them. The will of the deceased was never fulfilled. Firstly, Tikhonov was against the funeral service in the temple. But Anna Tikhonova desperately beat out posthumous honors to her father - and Tikhonov was buried already in the Cathedral of Christ the Savior. Well, he's no worse than Zykina and Rostropovich! Another wish of the deceased was also violated. Vyacheslav Vasilievich personally wrote in his will that he wanted to be buried in the same grave with his son Volodya at the Kuntsevo cemetery. His first wife, Nonna Mordyukova, also rests there. But here, too, the jealous daughter and wife acted as they pleased. Tikhonov's body was buried on Novodevichy cemetery, next to Oleg Yankovsky. Immediately, in the neighborhood, Tamara Tikhonova bought a place for her future grave. Only in one thing was the great Tikhonov happy - a couple of years before his death, Vyacheslav Vasilyevich again found the meaning of life. After 50 years of separation, he found his first love Yulia.

It was still in Tikhonov's small homeland - in Pavlovsky Posad. Tenth-grader Slava fell in love with nine-grader Yulia Rossiyskaya at a dance. The young were even going to get married, but Tikhonov went to study in Moscow. Already married to Mordyukova, he often wandered to Pavlovsky Posad to Yulia.


“He tortured me terribly,” Yulia recalls now. - I knew that he had a pregnant Mordyukova in Moscow, and he flirted with me. And it was a pity for him, and she herself was tormented.

Gradually, life separated them. But Tikhonov could not forget this girl all his life. In old age, he tried to find her himself, but in vain. Then he turned to his daughter's husband Nikolai. Yulia Rossiiskaya remembers very well that evening when the bell rang and such a familiar and familiar voice sounded in the receiver: "Julia, it's me, Slava." They found each other after almost 50 years of separation. Of course, Tikhonov spoke with her furtively. And he called only when his wife was not at home. But these conversations were an outlet for him. At 81, Tikhonov realized that all his life he loved only her, that girl from the past. She and Yulia were all going to meet, but either one had a sore, or the other.

So we didn't get to see each other.

Two-time Olympic champion - about the difficulties of post-war childhood, friendship with the great Galina Kulakova and doping charges.

Tamara TIKHONOVA
She was born on June 13, 1964 in the village of Kovalevo, Udmurtia.
Two-time Olympic champion of the Games-88 in Calgary (20 km race, relay). Silver medalist of the Olympic Games-88 in the 5 km race.
Two-time world champion (1985, 1991). Winner of the Universiade (1987).
Winner of the World Cup stage in the biathlon relay (1992).
President of the Ski Racing Federation of Udmurtia.

With the famous skier, the leader of the women's national team of the USSR in the second half of the 1980s, we met in the building of the representative office of her native republic of Udmurtia in Moscow. Our conversation began with memories of Tamara Tikhonova's childhood, which took place in the town of Kovalevo, Kezsky district.

I was born in a small village, about 13-14 households. We had no hospital, no school, no store. I had to go to school in the neighboring village. Directly to it was about 2 kilometers, if you go along the high road - then 2.5 km. I had such a bag, like a field bag - I put it behind my back, myself for skiing, and for lessons. Then, when I got older, I got a bicycle.

Now you look at some of the teams: they may or may not, but they still climb. I am for the fact that each person should be in his place.

- In those days, it must have been crazy happiness?

I collected and donated pine and fir cones. With this money I bought a bicycle.

At what point did you realize that sports would become your profession?

For a long time I didn't even think about it. We just had a small village stadium outside the garden. I played football there all day long. I grew up with boys, I never sat at home. I look at modern children and it’s so pitiful: they don’t even know how to play properly! Girls come to the cross-country skiing team, you start offering them football, volleyball, basketball, but they can't. But games are coordination, that is, the basis of everything in almost any sport. Big mistake when coaches, already from adolescence, crush their athletes with continuous volumes and monotonous work. Children should play, no matter what sport they play.

KULAKOVA BECAME AN OLDER SISTER TO ME

- How did it happen that four-time Olympic champion Galina Kulakova suddenly became your coach?

Galina Alekseevna at first seemed to me such a legend that I was even afraid to approach her. In 1979, at the competitions in Apatity, I only watched her in the canteen, it was scary to meet her. Already in 1981, we met by chance at the airport. And I was shocked that we were flying to the competition on the same flight. I thought that such great people Olympic champions must travel on separate aircraft. Then already during the flight we met. But they began to communicate closely a year later, at the Spartakiad of the Peoples of the USSR. I lived in a room with Zinaida Amosova and Nina Paramonova, and they were very friendly with Kulakova and Smetanina. Now I was sitting in the dining room with them all at the same table. Lyuba Egorova later admitted: "I even envied you that you communicate with them!"

- Is it true that Kulakova gave you her skis?

It happened. At that time I had only one pair of skis. And at the same Spartakiad, she did not go at all. I cried a lot: it's a shame to sit at a table with such people with my results! Nina Paramonova at some point asked what was happening to me. And I admitted that I do not have suitable skis. Then Galina Alekseevna gave me her combat pair, and I showed the second result in the relay race. In the same year she left big sport, and gave me these skis. They are still in my house.

- Kulakova did not just give you skis, but actually became a personal trainer?

I can't say that she was my coach - I always had a coach in the national team. Galina Alekseevna became a friend, older sister, a mentor in life, if you like ... Between the training camps, she herself took me to training. She helped with all domestic issues: with obtaining an apartment, buying a car, and so on. After the Calgary Olympics, they gave me a two-room apartment. And Galina Alekseevna actually gave me one extra room: I moved into her three-room apartment, and she settled in my "kopeck piece".

- So you still live in Kulakova's apartment?

No. Apparently, the roots, the memory of village life make themselves felt. For my 50th anniversary, they gave me money in the republic, and now I live on earth, in my own house. I plant a garden, run a household and get great pleasure from it.

BIATHLON WOMEN Crawled over the distance

The coach of the national team of those years, Alexander Grushin, said about you: "Toma was a classic workhorse who achieved all success through hard work.” Are you ready to agree with this statement?

In fact, all my indicators of strength and endurance were below average. They even wanted to kick me out of the team for this, but when the main start comes, I'm in the prizes. Of course, in terms of talent, I am far from Anfisa Reztsova, Larisa Lazutina, Lena Vyalba. These are athletes "from God". I can’t say that I worked more in training than they did - we all plowed there. If you look at the titles, they have achieved more in sports than I have. But be that as it may, two Olympic gold medals are also not bad. Grushin later even tried to analyze it and concluded that even though my level of maximum oxygen consumption was low, everything that was consumed was then processed in the body.

Prizes, salaries, of course, beckon. It is necessary to fight this. We need a scientific team that will help us competently restore athletes after competitions. And then we all train, load, but we have no idea how to restore.

- Do you remember how much you paid in prize money for the Calgary Olympics?

We had prize money, I think, was normal. We got much more than we earned ordinary people. Although, of course, this cannot be compared with what they give after the Olympics today. I do not envy anyone, I think: you deserve it - get it. It's another matter when young athletes first think about cars-apartments, and then the results. For the rest of my life I remembered the words of Raisa Petrovna Smetanina on this occasion.

- What kind?

It used to be that at competitions you go for "firms" and ask: "Give me a hat, give me gloves ...". We were young, we wanted to look beautiful. And Smetanina, in a friendly way, advised: "Tomochka, never follow the" firms ". Make sure that they follow you." And when I already became an Olympic champion, I realized how right she was.

The same Grushin actually accused you of the fact that after your success in Calgary you caught a star disease and were no longer ready to work as hard as before.

Grushin and I met five years ago at Kulakova's anniversary. And then I said to his eyes: "Alexander Alekseevich, you know how to bring to the title Olympic champion, but you don’t always know how to work further. "I think it was his mistake too. As soon as something stopped working, he immediately said: they say, you are conceited. And we weren’t even close conceited, for example, what kind of was before Calgary, and this has remained.

- Why were you sent to the biathlon team just before the 1992 Olympics in Albertville?

I didn't want to go there. But the choice was either to completely end his career, or try his hand at biathlon. I tried it, but to be honest, it's not my thing at all. They didn’t really teach me anything, but they immediately took me to the training camp, took me to the World Cup ...

And you took ninth place at one of the stages. By present times, this is an achievement even for an athlete who has been engaged in biathlon all her life ...

Yes, I was ninth in the Anterselva sprint, but I fell down during the race. I lost a lot at the turn, and even not only because of misses, but on the way, at the ready. After all, there was no experience, the automatism of all these movements must be worked out for years.

- In terms of speed, did you also stand out among biathletes as Anfisa Reztsova did in her time?

No offense to the biathlon girls, but at first they just crawled along the distance. We sometimes held joint training camps, the difference was huge. When Reztsova came to biathlon, she made a revolution. The speeds have grown very much, and already when I crossed, many athletes there knew how to run and shoot. I did not want to take someone's place in the team. Now you look at some of the teams: they may or may not, but they still climb. I am for the fact that each person should be in his place. If I felt that biathlon was not mine, I left.

OUR TEAM HAVE NOT RECENTLY HAVE A DOCTOR

- How do you feel about Reztsova's confession of doping?

You need to know Anfisa. She has such a character as she says - so at least stand, at least fall. I take it the way it is. She is a strong athlete Strong woman, mother. For this I respect and love Reztsova very much.

- But if she used doping, it turns out that with the help of prohibited substances she beat you, too?

I never judge anyone. Anfisa talked a lot about me, even if I don’t hold grudges. She, apparently, cannot forgive in any way that I won the 20 km distance at the Calgary Olympics. And then, to be honest, I was glad not even so much that I won Olympic Games, how much to the fact that she beat Reztsova.

How do you feel about the activity of another ex girlfriend on the team - Elena Vyalbe - as the head of the Russian Ski Racing Federation?

I admire Lena. If I am modest by nature, I am afraid of everything, I am shy, then Lena boldly goes forward. Life hits her on the head: either there are no results, or all these doping - but she still does not stop. No mistakes anywhere, but as they say, only those who do nothing at all do not make mistakes. I think the victories of Sergei Ustyugov this year, at a time when few people believed in them, is a gift for Lena too. Reward for all her suffering.

Biathlon, at first glance, is more attractive than skiing. But he gets bored. When you switch to skiing after it, they seem much more interesting. It’s also a shame: Dmitry Guberniev advertises biathlon in this way, but there are no results there, it’s getting worse and worse.

What do you think about doping accusations against Russian skiers, in particular, your countryman Maxim Vylegzhanin?

It's hard for me to judge, because I don't know many things from inside the team. But all this does not fit in my head. Why, if a person took a test immediately after the race, a positive result emerges only after many years? Where could the scratches on the jar come from if the athlete closed it, handed it over to the inspector and generally didn’t see it again? I want to believe that the guys are clean. I see how Maxim is training, he is a real hard worker. I hope that he, along with the rest, will be acquitted.

You worked as a coach, now you are the head of the regional cross-country skiing federation. How common is doping in Russian junior and youth sports?

Prizes, salaries, of course, beckon. It is necessary to fight this. We need a scientific team that will help us competently restore athletes after competitions. And then we all train, load, but we have no idea how to restore. Until recently, we did not even have a doctor in the Republican team. Only recently a physiologist appeared. We work blindly, we don’t take cardiograms, nothing ...

World Championship medalist Natalya Matveeva said that until she got into the group with the German coach Markus Kramer, even at the level of the main team they didn’t even take a lactate test from her finger to check the state of the body ....

Even in my time, we took biochemistry! And now it is not. Everything is done by eye, on a whim. But people from such regional teams as ours come to the main team.

- Do you believe in the "purity" of Norwegian skiers?

Norwegians are strong because they know how to protect their athletes. I don't think they are asthmatics. But since Teresa Yohaug got caught, it means that something is changing. On the other hand, not caught - not a thief. We cannot know anything for certain.

- In your life there were both cross-country skiing and biathlon. What sport do you like to watch on TV now?

Biathlon, at first glance, is more attractive. But he gets bored. When you switch to skiing after it, they seem much more interesting. It’s also a shame: Dmitry Guberniev advertises biathlon in this way, but there are no results there, it’s getting worse and worse. And skis show little, although the results are growing.

- New formats of cross-country skiing - sprints, multi-days - do you like it?

It is very interesting to watch them. But I agree with Raya Smetanina, who once said: "Tomochka, it's good that in our time all this did not exist!" I am by no means a sprinter. And in children's sports in general, the sprint competition would be canceled. If a child reaches the final, it turns out that he competes all day, from morning to evening. And the next day he has another race. All this emasculates the body.

On December 23-24, Izhevsk will host the Galina Kulakova International Ski Marathon. Can we expect you among the participants?

No, only as a guest of honor! Competition for me is a closed topic. Although I ride for myself, but not enough. I'm kicking myself, I need more. Laziness is taking over...

They all lived in a large two-story house, the boy remembered his childhood as happy, because he did not have any worries. But this happened exactly before the war began. The boy was then only thirteen years old, he was then able to fully learn what deprivation and human grief are. A hospital was then opened at the school, he himself began to study as a turner, thereby contributing to the fight against the war. He helped in any way he could, due to his age and skills.

Although the youth of the future actor was overshadowed by gunshots, explosions and other dangers, he still did not want to give up his dream of playing on stage and acting in films. Therefore, after the war ended, he began to act. Although few believed that he would succeed, because after the war there was devastation and poverty. But, nevertheless, people continued to watch films and the future star wanted to prove that even in the darkest times one can bring beauty to the people. He studied at VGIK, and after a while he was able to make his film debut. The filmography of Vyacheslav Tikhonov is very diverse, the actor had the opportunity to cover the most different areas.

And when the color version of the film was released in 2009, he took it very negatively, they say, the director initially wanted to release it in black and white, so it was not worth redoing it and making it in color.

The widow of the People's Artist Tamara TIKHONOVA

Vyacheslav Vasilievich led a secluded life in recent years, because he had no one to be friends with.

Best friend and favorite director Stanislav Rostotsky (he directed Tikhonov in many of his films), close comrades-colleagues Yuri Nikulin, Nikolai Kryuchkov died.

And it's hard to find new friends in old age.

Tikhonov lived in a fertile place - in Nikolina Gora.

Here he built a red brick house - exactly the same as Stirlitz's in the film.

When friends were alive, he often and with pleasure went fishing with them.

He was accompanied by the dog Styopka - a mongrel mongrel was thrown to Tikhonov as a puppy.

At the dacha. 2009

But about a year ago, trouble happened with a four-legged friend.

The dog disappeared, and after a while someone threw Vyacheslav Vasilyevich his collar.

Alone, the actor stopped leaving the house altogether.

Whiled away the days in front of the TV, slowly drank.

Often reviewed his work in the cinema.

Tikhonov could not come to terms with the fact that life was coming to an end.

When Vyacheslav Tikhonov was already 40 years old, he married a second time.

His chosen one was the 25-year-old teacher Tamara.

With wife Tamara

They met while working on the French film "Man and Woman", where the actor voiced the role of the main character, and Tamara Ivanovna, at that time a French teacher at the Institute of International Relations, helped with the translation.

The girl was married, but for the sake of Vyacheslav she broke up with her husband.

Soon, a daughter, Anya, was born in a new family.

Tamara Ivanovna so tormented Tikhonov with her jealousy that in the end the couple divided the house in half and lived like that until Tikhonov's death: Vyacheslav Vasilyevich in one half, Tamara in the other.

Vyacheslav Vasilyevich stopped wearing a wedding ring, and Tamara Ivanovna said that Tikhonov ruined her life.

To calm her nerves, she began to drink heavily and attempted suicide several times.

Tikhonov's daughter Anya lived in the Moscow apartment of her parents, but in order to control her mother, she often began to visit the suburbs.

Tikhonov was happy - so he could see his tiny grandchildren - twins Slavik and Gosha.

They said that Vyacheslav Vasilyevich even had to meet with his son Volodya from his first marriage in the garage.

son Vladimir

When Volodya died of a drug overdose (he was only 40 years old), Tikhonov tried to help his son's second wife and his grandson.

But the actor's wife and daughter quickly stopped his noble impulse and forbade him to communicate with "former" relatives.

The wife and daughter made Tikhonov unhappy.

It's sad, but there was no one to cry at Tikhonov's coffin.

By the end of his life, he had only two close people - his wife Tamara and daughter Anna.

These two women made up all Tikhonov's happiness and all his punishment.

Few people know that the hero on the screen, a handsome man, self-sufficient and independent, in ordinary life Tikhonov was a very gentle and helpless person.

It was this “spinelessness” of his that once pushed Nonna Mordyukova, his first wife, away from him.

The Don Cossack Mordyukova herself was a woman of hot temper and just twisted ropes out of him, trying to stir him up.

Tikhonov's patience ended only when he caught his wife Nonna with her lover.

And when Tikhonov slammed the door, Mordyukova was even delighted:

“Well, finally, at least some emotion!”

Their son Volodya was then 13 years old, and despite the separation of his parents, he received the full love of both parents.

True, she did not save him from a tragic death.

From the age of 18, Volodya Tikhonov became addicted to drugs.

To save their son from addiction, both Tikhonov and Mordyukova all the time patronized the guy for different roles.

in the film "Russian Field"

Volodya resisted, but played.

Soon Volodya fell in love with the actress Natalya Varley, having seen her brilliant performance in The Prisoner of the Caucasus, they got married and gave birth to Tikhonov's grandson Vasily.

But soon divorced...

Vyacheslav Tikhonov always coordinated all his roles with his wife, reported on each scene with a hint of love.

Tamara Tikhonova was literally obsessed with jealousy!

Gina Lollobrigida and Oleg Vidov

Perhaps due to a difficult relationship with his wife, with age, Vyacheslav Vasilyevich began to act less and less.

And then it stopped completely.

In old age, the wife's jealousy became pathological.

Tamara Ivanovna literally "was on duty" on the phone.

If Tikhonov was asked by a female voice, she threw a tantrum.

Most of all got from Tamara Tikhonova to young journalists.

“I remember how everyone was surprised that Tikhonov was not at Nonna’s funeral,” says Nonna Mordyukova’s sister Natalia.

- Even then I thought - God be his judge.

But then I remembered his crazy Tamara.

She probably didn't let him in.

Because Slava Nonnochka himself respected, and after all, they were not strangers.

And his wife even forbade them to communicate on the phone.

The moment came when it became clear - you can make good money on the actor Tikhonov.

daughter Anna

Anna and her husband organized a small film studio, where they began to make films with the participation of Vyacheslav Vasilyevich.

Anna managed her father's affairs, refusing to give interviews to all film companies and TV channels.

By the 80th anniversary of her father, she let him in only one channel - "First", and then for a huge fee.

Konstantin Ernst personally paid 15 thousand dollars for the shooting from his own pocket! Naturally, Tikhonov did not receive a penny of this money.

On the same anniversary, the sponsors of the festive evening at the Cinema House presented the great actor with a luxurious car.

But he never rode it either.

Anya launched a good business in her father's name.

With this money, she supports her family and pumps her mother out of hard drinking.

And as for the wishes of Vyacheslav Vasilyevich himself, few people considered them

The will of the deceased was never fulfilled.

Firstly, Tikhonov was against the funeral service in the temple.

But Anna Tikhonova desperately beat out posthumous honors to her father - and Tikhonov was buried already in the Cathedral of Christ the Savior.

Well, he's no worse than Zykina and Rostropovich!

Another wish of the deceased was also violated.

Vyacheslav Vasilievich personally wrote in his will that he wanted to be buried in the same grave with his son Volodya at the Kuntsevo cemetery.

His first wife, Nonna Mordyukova, also rests there.

But here, too, the jealous daughter and wife acted as they pleased.

Tikhonov's body was interred at the Novodevichy Cemetery, next to Oleg Yankovsky.

Immediately, in the neighborhood, Tamara Tikhonova bought a place for her future grave.

Only in one thing was the great Tikhonov happy - a couple of years before his death, Vyacheslav Vasilyevich again found the meaning of life.

After 50 years of separation, he found his first love Yulia.

It was still in Tikhonov's small homeland - in Pavlovsky Posad.

Tenth-grader Slava fell in love with nine-grader Yulia Rossiyskaya at a dance.

The young were even going to get married, but Tikhonov went to study in Moscow.

Already married to Mordyukova, he often wandered to Pavlovsky Posad to Yulia.

Gradually, life separated them.

But Tikhonov could not forget this girl all his life.

In old age, he tried to find her himself, but in vain.

Then he turned to his daughter's husband Nikolai.

Yulia Rossiiskaya remembers very well that evening when the bell rang and such a familiar and familiar voice sounded in the receiver:

"Julia, it's me, Slava."

They found each other after almost 50 years of separation.

Of course, Tikhonov spoke with her furtively.

And he called only when his wife was not at home.

But these conversations were an outlet for him.

At 81, Tikhonov realized that all his life he loved only her, that girl from the past.

She and Yulia were all going to meet, but either one had a sore, or the other.
