Touching and vulnerable, courageous and persistent - the heroines of this actress are very different. And therefore it is not clear how one person can play such different characters - this requires a special talent.
Elena Drobysheva was born in 1964 in Moscow. Lena's mom and dad were artists, apparently, this gene was passed on to her. True, her parents divorced shortly after her birth, and she was raised by one mother.
Nevertheless, the girl understood that her family was artistic and tried to match her famous parents, folk artists. Moreover, her childhood was spent behind the scenes of the theater.
Career as an actress
Elena studied to be an actress in two educational institutions: at GITIS and the Shchukin school. After graduating from "Pike" at the age of 29, Drobysheva entered the troupe of the Moscow Drama Theater. R. Simonova. However, she played her best roles in the Moscow Theater of the Moon: Masha in Three Sisters, Seraphim in The Suicide, Sonya in Meshcherskys, Nina Zarechnaya in The Seagull.
Elena's career in cinema began earlier than theatrical: at the age of 20 she starred in the film "The Limit of the Possible", in an episode. A year later, in 1985, she got the main role in the military film "Meeting Before Parting." She also had the main role in the film "People Walking", where the young artist was lucky to act with the stars of Soviet cinema, and this is a great acting school.
Later, Elena Drobysheva starred in the detective series "The Investigation is Conducted by ZnatoKi", in the dramas "Seventeen Left Boots" and "If You Only Knew …", in the comedy "7 Days with a Russian Beauty". These were not very significant roles, and later in the films "Love French and Russian" and "Meshcherskie" she played the main roles, and very interesting and different.
And the youth film "Who Else But Us" with the participation of Drobysheva received many prizes, including international ones.
However, real popularity came to Elena only in 2003, when she began acting in the TV series "Another Life". It was a very interesting role of the wife of a businessman - a former provincial. There were other series, the work in which the actress recalls with great warmth, because real talents were filmed with her: Igor Bochkin, Lev Durov, Maxim Averin, Alexander Dedyushko.
The most significant film of the second half of the 2000s for Elena Drobysheva was Anna Karenina, where she played the role of Dolly, a mother of six children. The peculiarity of this film is that many artists have been waiting for their roles for almost 10 years. It is quite possible that the wife of Leo Tolstoy could become the prototype of Dolly, and that was the most interesting thing. The actress liked everything in this work: the script, filming partners, the setting on the set.
In the late 2000s, Elena starred in almost ten films, including melodramas, dramas and pictures of other genres. The second decade of the century brought the actress new roles in the TV series Stronger Than Destiny, in the drama Come Back - Let's Talk, in the TV series The Party and the comedy You All Enrage Me. In total, her filmography today includes more than 65 films and TV series, and this is far from the limit.
Personal life
The first husband of Elena Drobysheva looked after her for three long years: Dmitry Lipskerov saw her in "Pike", approached and did not leave a single step. They got married and broke up less than a year later. Elena does not like to remember this period of her life.
For the second time, Elena was married to actor Alexander Koznov. In 1990, the happy couple had a son, Philip, but the family was not destined to be together, and Elena raised her son alone. Philippe now lives and works in France.
The actress herself once admitted that, apparently, she does not know how to choose men, and if her husband were not an actor, then perhaps something would have happened.
Now she leads an active lifestyle: traveling, snowboarding, taking care of her son. She does not advertise her personal life anywhere - neither in the press, nor in social networks.
