Actress and TV presenter Yulia Menshova in a recent interview revealed a curious detail regarding her father, director Vladimir Menshov. It turns out that the filmmaker took the collapse of the USSR as a personal tragedy and was very worried regarding the changes that had taken place in the country. The creator of the cult films “Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears” and “Love and Pigeons” considered the 90s “a time of global betrayal.”
“The appropriation of the labor of entire generations with its transfer to private hands – he considered it a flagrant and wildest injustice. And the collapse of a giant state into many independent ones is a tragedy, ”said the filmmaker’s heiress.
Yulia Menshova agrees with her father. Telediva is sure that the events that are unfolding right now in Ukraine and Donbass are the consequences of the collapse of the Soviet Union. Today, the actress notes, we are paying for the mistakes of the past.
“And the fact that the hydra of nationalism, totally defeated in the USSR, raised its head so much precisely because of this is also a fact. I think that much of what is happening today would hurt him terribly, ”Menshova reasoned.
We note that the actress Lyudmila Gurchenko also regretted the restructuring and destruction of the USSR. At first, the star of the film “Love and Pigeons” was impressed by the changes, but, being at a broken trough, Lyudmila Markovna changed her mind. Perestroika, Gurchenko argued, made her a beggar and deprived her of a sense of support.
