Valery Zolotukhin lived for two families, but the audience forgave the talented actor

Valery Zolotukhin Soviet actor of theater and cinema, whose biography has always caused resonance in society. Many admired the talent of a famous artist. But he had no less detractors than his fans. Moreover, not all colleagues in the workshop could get along with Zolotukhin on one site. Today's edition. "Site" will share interesting facts from the biography of the actor.



Valery Zolotukhin: biography In childhood, Valery Zolotukhin dreamed of becoming an actor. However, at the age of 6, he severely injured his leg, which for a long time could not move independently. Young Valery was bedridden, and then several more passed on crutches.

Doctors immediately warned the guy that, most likely, he will never walk normally. But the goal and dream motivated Zolotukhin to work on himself and do everything possible to recover.





As a result, he managed to completely recover and enter GITIS on his first attempt. After successful graduation, he began to work in the Theater named after Moscow Council, and then in the Theater on Taganka. Even at the university, teachers saw in Zolotukhin both comedic and dramatic potential.

By his nature, Valery was a very stubborn person. He wanted to get better and better. Sometimes you have to sacrifice something for it. For example, Zolotukhin made a breakthrough in his film career because he did not want to lag behind his first wife. While still a student, he married Nina Shatskaya. At that time, she was already actively filming and was famous.





The actor realized that he just faded in the background of his wife. Then he began to act more actively in films. And very soon he got the role of Private Bumbarash in the eponymous film "Bumbarash". This work brought Zolotukhin all-Union glory. Only Nina Shatskaya did not appreciate the success of her husband and went to another. The actress accused her ex-husband of cheating, and he also believed that the fault was unhealthy competition in the marriage.





A year after the divorce, Zolotukhin married Tamara Guseva. He met her on the set of the film “The Only One”, where the woman worked as an assistant director. Officially, their marriage lasted for 35 years. However, Tamara more than once had to turn a blind eye to the novels of Valery on the side.

Moreover, at some point, the actor began to live for 2 families. His new passion was actress Irina Lindt, with whom Zolotukhin lived the last years of his life. In 2004, Irina gave birth to a son Valery. And with Guseva the actor divorced only after 9 years.





Zolotukhin never hid that he was cheating on his wife. Sometimes he shocked others with his behavior. Many fans turned away from the actor when he began to share with the press details of his personal life with Irina. In addition, Valery often gave out details of behind-the-scenes theatrical life and defamed the names of his colleagues.

And then the actor went even further. He published his diary notes, which caused a storm of indignation among colleagues and acquaintances Zolotukhin. Moreover, after that, many began to threaten Valery and intimidate his family.

Zolotukhin and Vysotsky Valery Zolotukhin and Vladimir Vysotsky were friends for many years. Together they starred in 5 films and performed on the stage. However, the friendship came to an end when Valery agreed to replace his colleague in the workshop, playing in Hamlet instead. In fact, that never happened. But Vysotsky was deeply wounded by this act of a friend.





Later it turned out that Zolotukhin all his life just envied the fame and success of Vysotsky. So, of course, he would like to be in his place: Yes, envied, but not pure, but the blackest envy that can be. Perhaps I do not envy Alexander Pushkin himself as much as Vysotsky.

Even in childhood, Zolotukhin was known as a stubborn truth-cutter, for which he was terribly disliked by school teachers. The character helped the actor achieve his goals. However, he was one of those who could easily go over their heads for their good.





Arrogant, conflicted and narcissistic That's how Valerie described her colleagues. If something did not suit him, he did not pull the cat by the tail and cut the truth-uterus. You can write a separate article about his personal life. Someone believes that even being a bigamist, a man managed to make his chosen ones happy. And someone is sure that Zolotukhin is an ordinary liar and traitor.

Anyway, it is foolish to deny the indisputable acting talent of Valery. We invite you to remember his best roles and enjoy films with the actor. Do you have any favorites?
