On the grave to Smirnov for a long time no one went - it was overgrown with grass and for 25 years no one could find it. The burial place of Alexei Smirnov was discovered not so long ago quite by accident.
Alexander Belyavsky

Tatyana Samoilova

The role of Vladimir Ivashov in the film "The Ballad of a Soldier" was awarded many awards
After the first starring role, there were others - the adjutant of Colonel Kudasov in the "Crown Russian empire”(The song“ Russian Field ”after that became the artist’s crown number), Pechorin in“ A Hero of Our Time ”(True, Vyacheslav Tikhonov voiced the role, since Ivashov temporarily lost his voice due to illness) and others. True, it seemed that in the cinema they simply exploited his appearance, and no one was interested in Ivashov's acting range.
In the early 90s, Vladimir Ivashov was not in demand in the cinema, he was fired from his job - from the Film Actor Theater.

The toilet in the artist's apartment did not work for several years, rats scurried around the house. Nosova developed a craving for pathological hoarding - she pulled rubbish and garbage from the surrounding landfills into the apartment. The actress died in 2007, after lying on the floor in an apartment for several days after a stroke.
Tatyana Peltzer
The audience does not remember the young actress Tatyana Peltzer - it seems that she appeared on the movie screens immediately as a "national grandmother". This image was exploited both in cinema and theater directors.Tatyana Ivanovna Peltzer has dozens of roles, voiced cartoons, a huge number of theatrical works. Among them - the TV version of "The Marriage of Figaro" with Andrei Mironov in the title role, "You never dreamed of" with Lydia Fedoseyeva-Shukshina, "Memorial Prayer" with Yevgeny Leonov and others.

Sergey Filippov
The artist Sergei Filippov was truly popular - many of the phrases that his characters uttered from the screen went to the people. Due to his specific appearance, Filippov's long, ungainly figure was mostly cast in comical small roles, especially in his mature years.
Sergey Filippov always dreamed of a bright tragic role, but he got ridiculous scoundrels
Among his roles is a drunken lecturer from Eldar Ryazanov's film " Carnival Night”(“Is there life on Mars - this is unknown to science!”), An episode in the comedy “Girl without an address” (“What does Masik want? Masik wants vodka”), the role of the Swedish ambassador in “Ivan Vasilyevich” and, of course, the standard played Kisa Vorobyaninov in the film adaptation of "12 Chairs" by Leonid Gaidai.

Actor friends said that after the death of the actor, the daughter of his second wife took advantage of the turmoil and took everything of value from the apartment - antique furniture, jewelry and porcelain. At the same time, Alexander Demyanenko, a friend and colleague of Sergei Filippov, collected money for the funeral. Sergei Filippov was buried in April 1990.
Mikhail Kononov

In the film, he, paired with Vyacheslav Innocent, chased Alisa Selezneva and the boy Kolya, who were trying to save the myelophone. With Mikhail Kononov, his somewhat comical appearance played a cruel joke. In later years, he was rarely filmed - this type was not in demand in the cinema of the 90s.
Mikhail Kononovthe role of the janitor Spiridon in the film "In the First Circle"
Kononov did not give up: he wrote a book of memoirs and tried to sell it, but the publishers showed no interest. Due to poverty, he had to sell his Moscow apartment and settle in the Moscow suburbs. Two weeks before his death, he went to the hospital with pneumonia, but there was not enough money for the necessary medicines. Kononov died in the summer of 2007 from a thromboembolism.
Acting fame is capricious, and the nature of the artists is subtle and sensitive. Many were crippled by the collapse of the Soviet Union and, as a result, the commercialization of cinema. Often, artists drowned out poverty and humiliation with alcohol.
Alexey Fomkin
1969−1996
Alyosha Fomkin, a handsome guy from a futuristic television series, has a completely unsympathetic fate.

River Phoenix

23 years old - at this age, the life of budding actor River Phoenix ended. River, along with his younger brother Joaquin Phoenix, a future star, did his best to help his parents earn money thanks to their talents: the brothers sang, recited poetry and danced, arranging concerts right on the street. This experience was not in vain: the Los Angeles agent, who was familiar with the father of the family, found several good offers for talented guys. River started with television series, and four years later he was already in a big movie.
From hippie parents, River was given free-thinking and independence, but at the same time he promoted veganism, supported PETA and was seen in the company of only three girls in his entire life. However, among the hobbies of the actor, there was time for a dangerous passion - drugs. In 1993, River became ill at the Viper Room nightclub, where he spent time with friend Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers, brother Joaquin, sister Rain, and his girlfriend Samantha. The company helped the actor go outside so that he could recover, but the star got even worse. The ambulance that arrived at the club was unable to save Rivera. After his death, most of the stones flew into the garden of Johnny Depp, one of the co-owners of the Viper Room: the institution was called a nest of drug addicts and suicides. Only in 2004, Depp said goodbye to the notoriety of this institution by selling his stake in the business.
James Dean
1931−1955
Despite his death at the age of 24, James Dean managed to become a symbol of the 50s and influence the style and culture of subsequent years. Even at school, James became interested in theater, and the attempt to study at the university proved again that actor career- the only thing the young man wanted to devote his life to. At 20, he dropped out of education and started going to auditions. At first, he was offered small roles in passing series and commercials. However, connections, talent and training at the Actors Studio under the direction of Lee Strasberg in New York did their job: Dean was invited to major film projects, which glorified him throughout America, and later the whole world. A fatal set of circumstances cut short his stellar career. On the way to one of the photo shoots, the car in which James was sitting in the passenger seat crashed into a car that had left the corner. All participants in this accident survived, except for young actor Hollywood that died so early. Posthumously, Dean was nominated twice for an Oscar: for the films East of Paradise and Giant.
Paul Walker
1973−2013
Neither relatives nor fans wanted to believe in the death of Paul Walker: how did the actor, who had staged the most difficult stunts in the movie about the Fast and the Furious so many times, become a victim of a car accident?
The actor died during a charity car show in favor of the victims of the typhoon in the Philippines. The car in which Paul and his friend Roger Rodas were (he was driving) crashed into a lamppost and caught fire - the passengers did not even have a chance of salvation.
On the eve of his death, Walker began filming the seventh "Fast and the Furious", which made him famous. The actor never completed all the episodes with his participation, but the film crew decided to finish the film in memory of a friend.

Three months before his death, Monteith underwent rehabilitation at the clinic, from where he left on April 26, but abstinence from heroin was short-lived. Cory Monteith was found dead in a Vancouver hotel room on July 13, 2013. On the recording of surveillance cameras in the corridors of the hotel, it can be seen that the actor used drugs and champagne alone - no one went into the room of the deceased.
Sergei Shevkunenko
1959−1995
When Shevkunenko was four years old, his father died of cancer. Mom was left alone with two children. She worked a lot, and Sergei early years was left to himself. As a result, he began to get into criminal stories. But in the cinema he was not drawn at all. Everything was decided by chance: once he came to his mother, assistant director at Mosfilm, to work and liked one of the directors. Soon Sergei received the role of the heroic pioneer Mitya Polyakov in the Dirk trilogy. However, in life he preferred the path of crime. At the age of 13, Shevkunenko was registered in the children's room of the police and had serious problems with alcohol, and at the age of 16 he received his first term - for beating out of hooligan motives. After that, Sergei again and again went to jail for theft. By the age of 30, a man who received the nicknames “Chief” and “Artist” in the criminal world had the status of authority and headed the Mosfilm organized criminal group. Sergei died at the age of 35. The killer broke into their apartment with their mother and shot them both. The crime was never solved.
A string of deaths has taken the lives of several actors this year. They did not leave behind dozens of films, since they starred mainly in TV shows, but they managed to earn the love of viewers before their lives were tragically cut short.
Sergei Saleev
The actor passed away on November 1, but the press became aware of this only two weeks later. The body of the 48-year-old artist was found in the bathroom. Alcohol poisoning was called as a preliminary version of Saleev's death.
According to relatives of the actor, he has recently suffered from creative lack of demand and, as a result, lack of money.
Shortly before his death, Saleev went on a drinking binge and left a post on Facebook that seemed strange to his friends:
Life is the best that is given to such unbridled idiots like us, who give the “loafers” in the hall the best, the most intimate, the true, demanding nothing, nothing in return. Glory to the profession, glory, glory to the Actors!!!
Initially, Saleev played in the theater, but when he moved from Yekaterinburg to St. Petersburg, he did not work out with the stage. He began to play maniacs, victims, monsters and recognizable movie characters in quests.
Viewers know him by his roles in the TV series “Sea Devils. Smerch-3”, “It was in Gavrilovka”.
Egor Klinaev
At the end of September, fans of 18-year-old Yegor Klinaev were shocked by the news of the death of their beloved actor.
A young man when stopped to help those injured in an accident. He was hit by a passing car. The aspiring actor died before the ambulance arrived.
He got his driver's license five months before the tragedy. In social networks, Yegor boasted of his rights. Then no one suspected that it was the road that would take his life.
The star of the television series "Fizruk" admitted that he sees himself in 10 years "forever young, in demand, with inexhaustible ideas, with a wonderful wife and two kids."
Many people have passed through my life movie sets, from which no memories remain, and Yegor, surprisingly, despite his youth, had a very sharp mind, a phenomenal sense of humor. This is visible in the frame.
The deceased actor began his career in the famous Fidget group. In 2012, he played a major role in the film "The Secret of Yegor". Then he starred in youth series, among them was Fizruk.
Natalya Yunnikova
In September, two days before the death of her colleague Yegor Klinaev, actress Natalya Yunnikova died. She performed more than a dozen episodic roles in various films, but the audience remembered for the role of the investigator Vasilisa Mikhailova in the series "Return of Mukhtar".
At the age of 37 after she collapsed in a cardiogenic syncope at home. She suffered a massive cerebral hemorrhage after hitting her head on a table.
The doctors put her in. The actress died two weeks later without regaining consciousness.
She left her 11-year-old son Roland, who, after the death of his mother, began to live with his father, director Anton Fedotov.
Later, the media began to write that one of the reasons for her early departure from life was "lack of demand in the profession and loneliness." After The Return of Mukhtar, Yunnikova was no longer filmed, since the directors saw her only in the form of the investigator Vasilisa.
It is worth noting that before her death, she still managed to take part in the filming of the series "Ivanov-Ivanov", but since not all episodes were filmed before Yunnikova's death, the director decided to redo the material by changing the actress.
Kazimir Liske
American Casimir Liske became famous in Russia thanks to the series "Interns". He played the role of an English patient in love.
In our country, Kazimir found not only creative success, but also a family. In 2016, their son Oliver was born with his wife Polina Grishina-Liske.
The actor passed away in April of this year. He was taken to one of the Moscow hospitals, where the 35-year-old artist died from injuries incompatible with life.
The wife and close friend of Kazimir, artistic director of the Praktika Theater Ivan Vyrypaev, called the death of the actor an accident.
Kaz was going through a serious mental instability. You can call it a disease. He came home at one in the morning, talked to Polina. No one saw in him any signs of panic or mental instability ... And we are all sure that he did not want to do this at all, just the illness and mental state that he suppressed and hid even from his loved ones pushed his body into the sky, wrote Vyrypaev.
Actor Liske, in addition to the series Interns, starred in such films as Ivan the Terrible and Capital of Sin.
