Biography
Svetlana Kryuchkova was born in 1950 in Chisinau. Her parents worked in a serious organization - in counterintelligence. Therefore, Svetlana from childhood knew what discipline is. From an early age she was collected, responsible and serious.
Sveta read a lot, was passionate about the romance of exploration and wanted to become a geologist. And she also wanted to study literature, but could not combine these two professions.
She was teased at school for her red hair color; no one was friends with her. And she took and went to school activities, began to perform on stage, sing. And she liked this occupation.
Therefore, after school, Kryuchkova went to Moscow to enter a theater university. She went through three rounds at the school of Shchepkin, and the fourth failed. So that the family would not be upset, Svetlana remained in the capital. She went to work as a mechanic at a car factory, but worked there quite a bit. It was hard for her alone in an unfamiliar city, and she returned to Chisinau.
The next time, her parents persuaded her to go to a pedagogical institute and get an education, "like all normal people." However, the stubborn girl again went to Moscow, now to the Shchukin school, to prove that she could be an actress. And again she broke in the fourth round.
Her desire to become an actress was so strong that she already wanted to go to the theater school in Saratov. But before that, she decided to try her hand at the Moscow Art Theater School-Studio - and she did!
Actress career
In student performances, Svetlana began playing immediately, and the first film shootings happened when she was in her fourth year. It was the role of Nelly Ledneva in the famous TV series "Big Break." This role, perhaps, determined her whole future life and fate - the aspiring actress suddenly became a star.
And she was taken to the series by sheer luck. She brought the script to the film studio, which her husband asked to give there. The director saw her and wanted to take on the role of a teacher, and then she was nevertheless approved for the role of Nelly.
After the school-studio, Kryuchkova went to serve in the theater, which became native during the years of study - at the Moscow Art Theater. She worked there for two years, and then fell in love with a cameraman and went with him to Leningrad.
In the northern capital, Svetlana Nikolaevna got a job at the Tovstonogov Bolshoi Theater. She still is in the main composition of the troupe of the theater and plays on stage.
True, her life in the BDT did not immediately turn out well: she was already twenty-six years old, she had already given birth to a child, and she was offered to play the role of a schoolgirl. Before, Svetlana would have definitely refused, but then she realized that this was a real test, and agreed. She beautifully portrayed a schoolgirl on the stage and became a full member of the troupe.
Wherever Kryuchkova worked, everyone loved her for her universalism: she could play any role in the performance of any genre. For artists, this is called "outside the line." Just think - she played and frivolous girls, and respectable ladies, and prim ladies.
And if you recall her role in the film "Relatives" (1981), then you can only marvel at the depth of the image of the heroine. Together with the famous Nonna Mordyukova, they created a brilliant acting duet in this tape. The script of the film was written specifically for Mordyukova, however, Kryuchkova was a worthy pair of Nonna Viktorovna.
Even the episode Svetlana Nikolaevna could play so that he was remembered. The proof of this is the work in the painting "Burnt by the Sun" by Nikita Mikhalkov (1994). For the role of Mokhovaya, the actress was awarded the prize of the Constellation Foundation for the best episode.
She also had so-called "status" roles: twice she played the Empress Catherine II, and in the film "Brezhnev" she created the image of the Secretary General’s wife.
In 1991, Kryuchkova received two "Nicks" for the best supporting role in the films "St. Sleeping Car" and "It."
In 2010, she again received "Nick" for Best Actress in the movie "Bury Me Behind the Baseboard." In this picture, she played the role of the grandmother of the protagonist Sasha.
