Lyudmila Chursina. The Path to Oneself

Lyudmila Chursina is one of the most talented and recognizable Soviet and Russian actresses of theater and cinema, a People's Artist of the USSR. She appeared in films such as Virineya, Zhuravushka, Ugly River, Shield and Sword, Love Yaroslavna, Olesya,... and many others. Lyudmila Chursina is an aristocrat of spirit in all its manifestations, both human and professional. This is etched on her beautiful, proud face, in the very posture of her head, in the way she carries herself simply, modestly, yet with an unwavering sense of self-worth, in her ability to communicate with audiences and colleagues. From any role, even one with rather scant material, she builds a strong, always remaining "with a straight back" personality. The book contains numerous photographs from the actress's personal archive, interviews from various years, and memories from her theater colleagues.
