I was afraid of the terrible consequences.
Tamara Makarova was called the Soviet Greta Garbo. She might well have built a brilliant career abroad. Hollywood was ready to welcome the talented artist with open arms, but she showed her character.
At the “dream factory” they decided to film Tolstoy’s “Anna Karenina”. Americans saw a Russian beauty as the main character. However, the one who was considered the most sensual actress of the USSR, having weighed all the pros and cons, flatly refused to film abroad. And there were a number of reasons for this.
The star understood that if she went abroad, she might safely say goodbye to her career in her native country. But that’s not so bad. Her legal husband was also in danger. A director whose wife shines in American-produced films would definitely have his oxygen cut off in his homeland. The celebrity did not want to deprive her beloved of his life’s work and did not tempt fate.
