The famous Soviet actress Elena Solovey in 1991, she immigrated to the United States with her husband, artist Yuri Pugach, and children. She lives in a suburb of New York and teaches at a children's drama school. A few years ago she had a group for adults who are passionate about theater. The other day, the actress celebrated her 70 anniversary.

The star of Soviet cinema spoke about her life in the USA in an interview Komsomolskaya Pravda.

She is still recognized on the street: young people come up and admit that as a child they watched “The Slave of Love” or “The Unfinished Piece for Mechanical Piano.”

In Russia, she had an interesting, rich creative life, it is still surprising that this sought-after, successful actress left the country where her audience remained.

“In general, I didn’t think about becoming an actress when I moved to the USA. I immediately decided for myself: now I am just a mother of a family who must take care of her children. But, to be honest, I can’t even imagine how I could fit into American cinema. I speak English with a European accent. In films, I could only play emigrants,” said Solovey, noting that she is quite satisfied with the tiny roles that are offered to her in the United States.

In her opinion, to win Hollywood, in addition to talent, you need a great desire, and she didn't have it.

“Before moving to America, I had so many good, unusual, amazing things that I was aware that it would not be possible to enter the same river twice,” explained the artist.

Nightingale said that her children found themselves in professions that are far from acting.

“The son studies biology, the daughter studies molecular anthropology. Our children have been living separately for a long time. When I try to give advice to my daughter, she tells me: “Mom, there are only professors around you, and you teach everyone how to live!” Children have long since flown out of their parents' nest. The daughter lives in Germany, the son lives in America. But thanks to Skype, we see each other all the time, and I can watch, even from a distance, how my grandchildren grow,” shared the People’s Artist of the USSR.

Over a half-century career in cinema, Elena Solovey starred in more than 60 films, most of them in the USSR, and received a number of prestigious awards: 1976 - a diploma for the best performance of an female role in the film “Slave of Love” from the Mosfilm film studio;

1980 - Oxford International Film Festival - Oxford Silver Shield prize for the best performance of the leading female role in the film A Few Days in the Life of I. I. Oblomov; 1981 - Cannes Film Festival - prize in the category "Best Supporting Actress" in the film "The Fact".
