Inna Mikhailovna Churikova (Russian: Инна Михайловна Чурикова; 5 October 1943 – 14 January 2023) was a Soviet and Russian stage and film actress.[1]

Biography

[edit]

Churikova was born in Belebey, Bashkir ASSR, Russian SFSR, Soviet Union. In the early 1950s, Inna moved with her mother to Moscow. Inna was bent on becoming an actress from an early age: as a schoolgirl she studied at the drama studio attached to the Stanislavsky Theatre and later, after a few failures, entered Shchepkin Drama School. She debuted in filming whilst a first-year student, in minor episodic roles. Inna Churikova became famous thanks to the films V ogne broda net (No Path Through Fire) (1968), and especially the triumphal Nachalo (The Debut) (1970) by the then beginning film director and her future husband Gleb Panfilov.

Her other most remarkable works were in the films: Tot samyy Myunkhgauzen (The Very Same Munchhausen) (1979) written by Grigory Gorin and directed by Mark Zakharov, Voenno-polevoy roman (Wartime Romance) (1983) by Pyotr Todorovsky, Rebro Adama (Adam's Rib) (1990) by Vyacheslav Krishtofovich, God sobaki (The Year of a Dog) (1993) by Semyon Aranovich, Plashch Kazanovy (Casanova's Raincoat) (1993) by Aleksandr Galin, Kurochka Ryaba (Ryaba My Chicken) (1994) by Andrei Konchalovsky, and Shirli-myrli (What a mess!) (1995) by Vladimir Menshov. For her role in Wartime Romance, she won the Silver Bear for Best Actress at the 34th Berlin International Film Festival,[2] and won the Nika Award in 1991 in the Best Actress category for her role in Rebro Adama.

Churikova was also a renowned stage actress, mainly working in Lenkom Theatre with director Mark Zakharov, as well as a non-repertory theatre star.

Together with her husband and son, Churikova was a co-screenwriter for the historical feature The Romanovs: An Imperial Family (2000), in which rather than appear on screen, she dubs the English actress Lynda Bellingham starring as the tsarina Alexandra Feodorovna.

On January 4, 2023, the actress was hospitalized at the Botkin Hospital in Moscow due to poor health.[3] She died there on January 14, 2023, at the age of 79 after a long illness (multiple brain cysts).[4] The farewell ceremony for the actress took place on January 17, 2023, at the Christ the Savior Cathedral in Moscow.[5][6] She was buried at the Novodevichy Cemetery in Moscow. Gleb Panfilov outlived his wife by seven months and died on August 26 of the same year.[7]

Political views

[edit]

In 2001, she signed an open letter in defense of the NTV television channel.[8][9] In 2003, she was among the cultural and scientific figures who called on the Russian authorities to stop the war in Chechnya and move to a negotiation process.[10][11][12] In 2006, she joined an appeal condemning the forced deportation of Georgian citizens from Russia, the associated cases of ethnic discrimination and the general deterioration of relations between the countries.[13] In 2010, she signed the appeal "Lebedev and Khodorkovsky must be released!" She advocated for the release of Grigory Pasko.[14][15], Vasily Aleksanyan.[16][17][18], Svetlana Bakhmina.[19][20] She spoke out against the adoption of a law prohibiting the adoption of orphans by US citizens.[21] She has repeatedly supported animal protection initiatives.[22][23][24]
