Vera Glagoleva's rules of life

A few quotes about what is important in the life of an actress and director

ABOUT HAPPINESS

Now the main happiness for me is the opportunity to work. Many people still call me an actress, and it’s very difficult to break this stereotype, so I’m trying.

ABOUT WORK

There are not many significant age roles. I don’t really want to play mothers and grandmothers. Of course, if the mother has some kind of story in the picture, that’s a different matter. But mostly the roles offered are simply background ones: she has a daughter or son, with whom everything happens.

ABOUT RAISING CHILDREN

I have always been a demanding mother and tried not to raise my daughters to be pampered creatures.

ABOUT THE FAMILY

I am very sorry when families among my friends break up. It's always very painful. Although you cannot teach someone to love, it seems to me that you can try. Because sometimes it happens that they will say something in the heat of the moment and offend without thinking. It seems to me that you need to be wiser in this situation and try to save your family, your world. Especially if there are children. We need to be more tolerant. And then showering an abandoned child with gifts, giving money... Still, this does not pay for what the child loses.

ABOUT YOUR TWO MARRIAGES

We lived with Rodion (Glagoleva’s first husband - Ed.) 12 good years, happy. How it all ended is another matter. But I’ve been living with Kirill for 25 years, and everyone turns to me: you have new husband?! Very funny. Well, really, 25 years is a very long term. Everything about the grievances with Rodion is already forgotten, and there is even some gratitude. Because if this had not happened, I would not have met Kirill, my wonderful husband.

ABOUT BEAUTY

Of course, I am aware of how old I am... But being young is not for me. I don’t blame women my age who still run around with pigtails. But I don’t want to be like them.

ABOUT BALANCE IN LIFE

I will say a terribly common thing that for me happiness consists of two parts - my family and my work. If the balance between these parts of my life is suddenly disturbed, then I feel discomfort.

ABOUT LOVE

Love may be nearby, try not to pass by.

In May, the domestic press began to discuss the reason for Glagolev’s long stay abroad; even then, speculation appeared in the media about whether she had cancer, but all this remained at the level of rumors.

The producer of the actress’s films and part-time close friend of the actress, Natalya Ivanova, said that she spent the last days of her life in a clinic near Baden-Baden. However, earlier the press reported that the actress was in America. ““...I saw her literally a week ago. Now documents are being drawn up for the repatriation of the body to Russia. The question of where the farewell and funeral will be will be known later,” added Natalya Ivanova.

ABOUT future fate nothing is known about the painting.

Vera Vitalievna’s friend Valery Garkalin said that her plans were to realize her production potential: “I have no words to comment on this grief. This is a real, irreparable grief, I can’t even find the words, I can’t put them into sentences, I’m in despair. She was a very close person to me, we collaborated a lot, worked together. It seemed to me that she would start new life due to the fact that she started directing films and did it successfully, and now everything has broken off and nothing has happened.”

It is not yet known exactly what caused the actress’s death. However, the publishing house kp.ru reports that Glagolev was killed by cancer. That's why she for a long time was abroad. When asked whether health problems were the reason for the actress’s stay outside the country, Glagoleva answered “no.”

It is unknown exactly how Glagoleva’s body will be delivered; there are many speculations on this matter, but none of them have been confirmed yet. Nothing is known about the time and place of farewell to the actress. The family of the deceased has not yet commented on this matter.

Russian Minister of Culture Vladimir Medinsky said: “Vera Vitalievna had outstanding personal and professional qualities, was a person of rare charm and beauty. A truly people's artist. Millions of people in our country admired her inimitable, bright, always sincere performance.” In turn, Joseph Kobzon expressed regret about the death of the “hero of his time”: Our art has become much poorer because a wonderful actress has left, a beautiful woman, who gave birth to three beautiful children, girls... We attended the wedding of our eldest daughter, it would seem, quite recently, nothing foreshadowed either grief or trouble.”

Actress, director, wife, mother, colleague and just great person Vera Vitalievna Glagoleva left a huge mark on the history of modern cinema. She personifies a whole generation of actors whose work has nurtured new talents. The whole country is mourning such an invaluable loss.
