In early February, the Honored Artist of Russia Alexandra Zavyalova passed away. The details of the unexpected death of the actress were not covered in any way, and recently details of her death have become known. According to media reports, Alexander Zavyalov was killed by his own son. Many noted that the Honored Artist of Russia spent the last days in poverty and shared an apartment with her son. Neighbors claimed that the man quite often drank alcohol and quarreled with his mother, and sometimes it came to assault.

Peter's father is an American businessman whom the actress met after breaking up with her husband Dmitry Buchkin.

However, Peter himself does not remember the details of what happened - which made him stab his mother. The suspect did not stay long at any workplace and recently lived together with Zavyalova on her pension. The daughter of actress Tatyana brought them products. After the tragedy, Peter called his sister and told about the deed.

Recently, the actress did not want to communicate with fans and journalists. Some noted that Zavyalova did not like when she was recognized on the street, and even more so asked to take joint photographs. According to the recollections of one of the eyewitnesses, Valery, she tried not to contact with strangers.

“Once I was also persuaded to go to her house and wait when she leaves to ask for an autograph at least,” says Valery. - The home phone did not work for her. After several hours of waiting, we ventured to call the apartment, the call also did not work. And one of us knocked on the door. The drunk son Zavyalova opened to knock. When he understood what we needed, he called his mother, but she refused to come. He took her photographs from us, brought her to her, then took them out signed. I talked about this familiar Muscovite on TV, and she said that she had somehow agreed with Zavyalova for a short interview. Three people came from Moscow, and when they had already installed a camera and a light in the apartment, Zavyalova suddenly announced to them that she had changed her mind and they had to curl up and leave. ”

The last twenty years, the Honored Artist of Russia has not been removed anywhere. In 1994, she played in the movie Born Again, but since then no one has offered Zavyalova any more roles. Two years before the release of this picture, she took part in the filming of the series "White Clothes". This film was the first after more than 20 years of oblivion. Having played the main character in the Soviet TV series “Shadows disappear at noon”, she gained immense popularity. They say that after such success, she no longer wanted to take secondary roles, which is why she disappeared from the screens.

Complete oblivion broke the psyche of the actress - she spent some time in a psychiatric hospital.

On the fourth of February, Alexandra Zavyalova would have turned 80 years old. She died in her apartment in St. Petersburg. According to LifeNews, her son Peter gave a confession to the crime.

She was idolized by Rasul Gamzatov and Julian Semenov. Yuri Lyubimov and Arkady Raikin took care of her. She was admired by Bella Akhmadulina. One of the most tragic destinies in the history of Soviet cinema, one of the most beautiful domestic actresses.

The public found out about this on February 6, although the very fact of passing away was recorded by doctors on February 2!

On February 4, 2016, on the day of her 80th birthday, Alexander Zavyalova, the Honored Artist of the RSFSR, the once brilliant movie star of the USSR, the country that gave her everything and then selected this one, was found dead in her St. Petersburg apartment. Examination showed that the actress died on February 2. However, the Russian media and television ignored the death of the famous Russian actress.

As a child, I remembered the demonic beauty of Pistimea Morozova in the cult Soviet serial film "Shadows disappear at noon." The role of the richest heiress of Siberian manufacturers, who lost everything after the revolution, but vowed to fight the Soviet regime from the inside, became the pinnacle of acting Zavyalova.

At the beginning of the picture, the heroine Zavyalova appeared before the viewer as a 17-year-old girl, and in the end she was already over 70. Of course, this is not the first role of the actress, but rather the sunset of her career.

In 1960, Alexandra Zavyalova starred in the leading Soviet lyrical comedy "Alyoshkina Love", where her partner was the most talented idol of millions - Leonid Bykov. Fell in love with the audience and Zavyalova. The picture was a success. In the same 1960, she again expects success after playing the main female role in the film "People on the Bridge", shot by the legendary Alexander Zarha. But, of course, Pistimey Morozov / Serafim Klychkova became the visiting card of the actress (in the picture, the heroine Seraphim becomes Pistimea after she stole other people's documents). Who would have thought that this role, in fact, would be the last for the Honored Artist of Russia.

Her truly demonic beauty stood out uniquely even among the first beauties of Soviet cinema. The actress's grandmother was Greek. Apparently, Alexandra inherited from her such an atypical, bright appearance.

Her face adorned the cover of the American Life magazine. Zavyalov, still a rising star, was filmed by fashion photographer Philip Halsman. Representing the Soviet delegation abroad, the actress won the love of the public. On the plane, the actress met with the retired US Admiral Othello Ceresolli, who owned a shipping company. They fell in love with each other. By that time, the actress was married to the artist Dmitry Buchkin, they had a daughter, Tanya.

The security agencies from the very beginning watched the actress and Othello. Perezolli was declared persona non grata and he was forced to sail to the USA on his own steamboat. The actress told her husband that she fell in love with another, and they broke up. And in 1963, the image of Pistimea entered her life. The shooting took 3 years. This role became a test for the actress, happiness and a curse.

(It should be added that after breaking up with the American, the actress fell in love again, and again it was a foreigner - Yugoslav Moma Kosic. He beautifully looked after, cared for and helped the actress during the most difficult shootings of the series. The couple decided to get married, but the ex-husband did not give Alexandra permission to leave abroad with her daughter Tatyana. Going without a daughter was out of the question.)

It is difficult to say why oblivion came, probably the directors saw in her only the image of a demonic woman, while realizing that all the attention in the picture would be given to the actress for her unique appearance.

The actress began depression. She went to a psychiatric hospital. Shortly before that, she gave birth to a second child - a son. She was then 40 years old. Once again in a psychiatric hospital with her son, under pressure, Alexandra wrote a statement on disability. Daughter Tatyana during the illness of the actress was taken by her father, the former husband of the actress. Zavyalova was never able to fully recover from such a serious illness. At times, she felt very good. Communicated with people, gave interviews, but the disease returned.

The last time on the screen, Aleksandra Semenovna appeared in 2000 in the program of Oksana Pushkina "Women's Stories", where she sincerely told about her life and fate.

Bright memory to her. Peace and quiet to her bright soul.

Official data appeared that the actress was killed by her own son

The management of the Investigative Committee for St. Petersburg confirmed the information that the son of 40-year-old Peter Zavyalov was charged with the murder of the honored artist of Russia Alexandra Zavyalova. It is reported that he was arrested and has already given a confession.

According to investigators, on the night of February 3, while intoxicated, in the apartment of house number 6 on Gavrskaya Street "on the basis of a sudden personal hostile relationship," Peter Zavyalov stabbed his mother. She died on the spot. Honored Artist of Russia Alexandra Zavyalova did not live only a few days before her 80th birthday.

As a result of investigative actions and operational-search measures, the accused was detained, according to the regional department of the RF IC. Peter Zavyalov was selected a preventive measure in the form of detention. The criminal investigation is ongoing.

“He does not associate himself with these events”

Eight years in a maximum security colony. The verdict of Judge Marina Krutko, Peter Zavyalov, listened blankly. He only smiled sadly at his relatives and put his hands in the escort to be taken away.

He was found guilty of killing his mother - the stars of the film "Shadows disappear at noon" - Alexandra Zavyalova.

On the night of February 3, 2016, in the apartment of a house on Gavrskaya Street, Zavyalov stabbed his mother with a knife on the basis of a sudden personal hostile relationship. She died on the spot, - commented in the press service of the prosecutor's office.

Earlier in the debate, the public prosecutor insisted on ten years in prison. The judge took off for two years and satisfied only the civil lawsuit of the prosecutor in the amount of 3,071 rubles for the work of the ambulance brigade. But even this option did not please Zavyalov’s defense.

We will appeal the decision of the court, ”said his lawyer, Valentin Pyshkin. - My client does not admit guilt and does not connect himself with these events in any way.

In the coming days, counsel will appeal to the city court. He has a catch for what. According to Pyshkin, the investigative actions were conducted with violations. In particular, Zavyalov was taken for interrogation at a time when he was still drunk.

Mocking - fate

Since February last year, Zavyalov has been under arrest, sitting in the Crosses. When the verdict comes into force, these long months of imprisonment will be included in his sentence.

In court, the son of a popular actress said that he did not remember what could have happened in their apartment on Gavrskaya Street, that he did not know why his mother was dead. True, before Zavyalov did not complain about such serious memory lapses.


February 4, Alexander Zavyalov was preparing to celebrate the anniversary. She would have turned 80 years old. The actress was widely recognized by the public after the role of Pistimea Morozova in the film "Shadows disappear at noon." Among the paintings with her participation are “People on the Bridge”, “Wait for Letters”, “Aleshkina Love”, “Bread and Roses”, “Weekdays and Holidays”.

In "Shadows disappear at noon," Zavyalova played when she was 35 years old. Her colleagues remember how her character changed with the heroine. Gloomy, taciturn, she took herself very seriously. And worried about her appearance. She did not even want to look like an old woman for a role.


Fate brutally recouped on Alexandra Semenovna. After the frenzied popularity in the 70s, she disappeared from the screens for twenty years. In the 94th, she was awarded the title of Honored Artist of Russia. But rather by inertia ... Zavyalova had no more serious roles.

I didn’t love it, I didn’t live

The artist’s personal life also did not work out. In 1963, Alexandra Zavyalova married the artist Dmitry Buchkin, and their daughter Tatyana was born - an outwardly copy of her mother. But in the mid-60s, Aleksandra Semenovna met a 50-year-old foreign businessman Othello Serezolli. The affair did not last even two weeks. The American was monitored by KGB officers. He was suspected of espionage and deported from the Soviet Union.

After this story, Zavyalova’s husband filed for divorce. Alexandra Semenovna fell into a terrible depression. Several times she was treated in the clinic of neurosis. The only outlet she was still holding on to was her little son, Petya.

Peter was a late child, his actress gave birth at forty.

I needed a child to whom I would give all my unspent tenderness, ”Zavyalova later admitted.

But even after the birth of Peter, life did not go well. The actress was put for two months in a mental hospital. And when she checked out, it turned out that their apartment was robbed. They brought out diamonds, porcelain, furs, money ... Her daughter, the artist, took Tatyana's daughter to her, and little Peter was identified in an orphanage.

For a long time, Zavyalova did not want to return her son, and, a year later, she was again taken to a hospital ... After that, she received a disability.

Nevertheless, Peter lived with his mother. By the time he was forty, he hadn’t achieved anything special in life: neither a specific job, nor a woman. He drank a lot and constantly they had quarrels over this.

According to investigators, on the night of February 3, Peter came home drunk again. Mother began to make complaints ... Then he grabbed a knife from the kitchen and thrust it into the elderly woman's chest. After that, he called his sister and said: “I seem to have killed her” ... Everyone knew about Zavyalova’s death only four days later. And only on February 8, investigators announced the cause of the tragedy.

OFFICIALLY

Press Service of the Main Investigative Department of the IC in St. Petersburg:

-   The investigation and the court found that Zavyalov, while intoxicated, at night on February 3, 2016 in one of the apartments of house 6 on Gavrskaya Street, on the basis of a sudden personal hostile relationship, stabbed his mother, Alexandra Zavyalova, born in 1936, Honored Artist Russia, which died at the scene of a knife wound.

So, for example, after committing a crime, Zavyalov wrote a text message to his friend that he had killed his mother.

REFERENCE "KP"

Alexandra Semenovna ZAVYALOVA was born on February 4, 1936 in the village of Titovka, Tambov Region. She graduated from the Leningrad Theater Institute. Ostrovsky.

In the movie I got in 1959 - starred at the personal invitation of director Alexander Zahri in his film "People on the Bridge." After were “Song of Koltsov” (1959), “Aleshkina Love” (1960), “Bread and Roses” (1960).

In 1961, Alexandra’s photo hit the pages of the American Life magazine. Photographer Philip Halsman decided to film the most famous people of the Soviet Union - including the rising movie star.

In 1963 she married the artist Dmitry Buchkin, the daughter Tatyana was born.


She starred in 14 films. After the film “Shadows disappear at noon” (1972), Zavyalova was not invited to the cinema for more than 20 years. What resulted in a deep depression.

She was placed in a psychiatric hospital for two months. Daughter Tatyana was taken to her father, and little Petya was identified in an orphanage. For a long time, Zavyalova did not want to return her son, and a year later she was again taken to a hospital. Therefore, Dmitry Petrovich Buchkin adopted Peter.

In 1994, Zavyalova was awarded the title of Honored Artist of Russia.

In St. Petersburg, they said goodbye to the famous actress, the star of the series "Shadows disappear at noon," Alexandra Zavyalova. A woman of rare beauty, in recent years she hasn’t acted anywhere, hasn’t communicated with colleagues, and has led an extremely secluded lifestyle. And only now, after the tragic death of the artist, it became clear how hard she had to. At the funeral in the Smolensk cemetery, there was no son of Zavyalova, Peter. The investigation believes that it was he who killed his mother on the eve of her 80th birthday.

In a high-rise building in one of the sleeping areas of St. Petersburg, Honored Artist of Russia Alexandra Zavyalova has lived most of her life since the 68th year. Together with her son, the actress huddled in a close "kopeck piece" on the second floor. Neighbors say: she led a secluded, hermitic lifestyle, had little contact with people. But no one remembers conflicts in the family.

Honored Artist of Russia eschewed publicity. She often walked alone and hardly spoke to anyone. Together with their son Peter, they were rarely seen at all. The man, neighbors say, didn’t work anywhere and never got his own family. The mother was mainly looked after by the eldest daughter.

“She sometimes went out for a walk, as all pensioners go out for a walk. And about Petya I can say that he was a decent person, and what I drank, what should I do! I was good, he’s not an addict,” the woman says.

It was Peter Zavyalov who called his sister on the night of the tragedy and confessed to a terrible act. This happened a day before the anniversary of the actress. Fourth - would have turned 80.

"According to investigators, at night on February 3, 2016, while intoxicated in one of the apartments of house 6 on Gavrskaya Street, he stabbed his mother, Alexandra Zavyalova, born in 1936, Honored Artist of Russia, on the basis of a sudden personal hostile relationship who died at the scene of the incident, "said Sergei Kapitonov, senior assistant to the head of the GSU SK in St. Petersburg.

A graduate of the Leningrad Theater Institute, she began to act in films early. In the comedy Alyoshkina Love, Zinka is a cheerful switchman. Zavyalova’s painting partner was Leonid Bykov. Although the main role happened, of course, later. These are, in fact, two characters at once in one film. In the legendary "Shadows disappear at noon," she and still quite young Serafima Klychkova, and the unsociable, hiding under the assumed name recluse Pistimey Morozov. After this role, almost never appearing on the screen. She became a hostage to her talent, say those who worked with her.

“Sasha had eyes that spoke about the inner world of this woman. And therefore the role became not only externally, but internally, it was interesting to look at her. They did not just admire her beauty when she was dressed differently, or her anger. Admired skill, how she carried her image, "says director Vladimir Krasnopolsky.

After a resounding success, the directors stopped offering her roles. One of the possible reasons that turned away from a successful actress was a marriage with a major American businessman. He was suspected of espionage and expelled from the country. Long-term oblivion in the cinema, family failures - all this grew into a severe depression.

"I heard that she was often sick and was in hospitals, which she did not have very well with memory," said Eleanor Shashkova.

Peter, as law enforcement officers say, gave a confession. The family still does not believe that a man could consciously decide on this.

Peter Zavyalov is now in custody. Behind the ordinary wooden door of their apartment is silence. Images from the documentary of our colleagues are, in fact, one of the last appearances of the bright actress on the television screen. She plays with her great-granddaughter and seems a completely happy person. If not for the lines of Bella Akhmadulina, which the actress reads in half-turn in front of the window.

GSU SKR in St. Petersburg confirmed data on the death of the performer of one of the main roles in the famous Soviet film "Shadows disappear at noon." Two days before the 80th anniversary of Alexandra Zavyalova, her son killed her.

"At about one in the morning, a 40-year-old unemployed citizen killed his 79-year-old mother with a knife during a quarrel in his apartment at 6 on Gavrskaya Street. The suspect was detained by officers of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs in the Vyborg district at the scene, according to citizens," GU Ministry of Internal Affairs in St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region.

According to investigators, Peter Zavyalov often abused alcohol. On the night of February 3, the man was also drunk. He was at home with his mother - Honored Artist of Russia. There was a conflict between them, and the son stabbed the actress with a knife. She died on the spot.

Zavyalov poorly remembers how and why his mother was stabbed to death. In the morning, he called his sister and said that "he seems to have killed his mother."

He has already given a confession. A criminal case has been instituted under Article 105 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (“Murder”), a man has been charged.

Zavyalov is arrested. Investigators understand the circumstances of the case.

According to some reports, Zavyalov worked in construction. However, familiar families claim that the actress and her son lived in poverty and often clashed - often while intoxicated, Peter beat his mother.

Alexandra Zavyalova also had a daughter, Tatyana.

The actress played in the movie many memorable roles. And the film "People on the Bridge", shot by Alexander Zarha, instantly made the 23-year-old actress famous.

Zavyalova was also busy in such films as “People on the Bridge”, “Wait for Letters”, “Bread and Roses”, “Weekdays and Holidays”.

Photos of the actress constantly appeared on the covers of the Soviet Screen magazine, and one day her picture hit the cover of the American Life magazine.

In 1969, she began acting in the film, which became both the peak of her career and her final chord.

In it, 34-year-old Zavyalova played the role of one of the main characters - Serafima Klychkova (Pistimey Morozova), and in the first series she had to play a 17-year-old girl, and in the last series according to the script she was already 70 years old.

The tape came out autobiographical for Zavyalova: the father of the actress, like the father of her on-screen heroine, came from a wealthy merchant family and was also dispossessed after the revolution.

The film, released in 1971, was the last in the life of Alexandra Zavyalova - after him the actress was not shot for more than 20 years.

The lack of roles and longing for the stage turned into a deep depression, as a result of which the woman ended up in a psychiatric hospital for several months. “What I suffered there, it’s scary to remember. They didn’t let me sleep. They did an injection with sleeping pills and then woke them up. They didn’t let the children come to me. I screamed, begged, but they closed the doors,” the actress said.

In 1994, Zavyalova was awarded the title of Honored Artist of Russia. However, this did not greatly affect her life: the woman had to survive on a tiny retirement.

Recently, she very rarely left the apartment and almost did not give an interview.
