- Anna, you can say debut?
- I play my grandmother for the first time in my life! It was tasted on this role as far as I know, a lot of artistics, I don't know what I liked, but as a result she got me. When I was approved, I told about it with my grandmother, which was ninety-three years old. Grandma was silent, looked at me and said: "Well, you get used to it." (Laughs). "You imagine what horror: grandmother!" - I shared later with Dima Nagiyev. He replied: "Well, God forbid you playing such grandparents for a long time," making an emphasis on the word "such". For a characteristic actress, this is not a problem - yesterday you play a girl, today - grandmother. Of course, it is all conditional. Still, our series is grotesque, comedy, and our characters with Dima, who plays the "grandfather" - very charming and young.
- Easy worked with Dmitry Nagiyev?
"Of course, I didn't know," What is "Dima and how to work with him, because in addition to his show business, I did not see anything else. For me, it became a pleasant surprise that Dima is a stunning artist, a very professional and talented person. Nagiyev gives a lot, when it begins to improvise: he "throws", and if you grab his stories, it turns out a beautiful tandem. I hope we worked with Dima and the result will be noticeable to the audience. And then you know, as it happens: you laugh, laugh in the process of work, and then you see the project on the screen and you understand that it was funny only to you.
- Tell me more about your heroine?
- Oh, it is Stalin in a skirt! But at the same time we made it incredibly charming. Wonderful, juicy character and at the same time - nothing exaggerated. Actually, this is the same I, but in the proposed circumstances. In addition to makeup and glasses, nothing says that my heroine is a grandmother. I think this is a collective image of such ladies: strong, volitional and at the same time very wonderful.
- Can you boast a strong character?
- In any strong person, there is a huge weakness. I myself is so in life. It seems that the strong is strong, and in small things - so weak ... it is typical and my character. Of course, I am not an angel, I have a strong and wrinkled. I am extremely self-independent that, probably, I often interfere with my life. Sometimes I want to be weaker, but I can no longer.

- How do you like your serial "grandson" Ilya costumes?
"I came to the platform when Ilyusha was already a full artist." He treated me as his new job. (Smiles). Children on the playground are always pleasure. He is a very serious boy, worker. With him on the site always mom, he has a mode: sleeping on time, to eat on time. Ilya is very smart. It never says about the shooting, but I am pleased to tell us about our children's affairs and read books. About what is at the bottom of the sea or what flies in space. And only when the "Camera! Motor! ", He honestly fulfills everything. Lovely boy!
- Alika Stakhova, who plays director Pavel Gurova, admitted that you are friendly with her since childhood ...
- We are all one generation - children from acting families. We had a lot of people in the company - Stepa Mikhalkov, Fedya Bondarchuk ... A church was standing on the street, where we were going, hanging out, fell in love. Now everything scattered at different places, but at the same time we are still friends. The best friend Aliki lives in Vienna, she is the best friend of my nearest girlfriend, and so on.
- What were you at that time?
- It is very difficult to remember myself and try to watch yourself from. I was engaged in my ballet all youth, was a very independent child. As I studied in the choreographic school, I followed the regime. Of course, I was also very clowning, revived the novels, but most of the time gave choreographic school.
- Why did you go to the choreographic?
"It seems to me that children rarely independently make decisions of this kind - I was given there, and I danced. In my family, everyone dreamed that I became a ballerina. As a rule, neither in one acting family (and my family was exactly the same) the older generation does not want children to go to this profession. Maybe precisely because I never dreamed of becoming a ballerina, I was ballet and threw. Now regret. Not because it could become a ballerina, no. It's just necessary to bring to the end to the end - say, get a diploma. I learned four years, and you had to learn five more. The director of the choreographic school even gave me an academic vacation - in case I get up and, having lost the year, I will decide to return. But it did not work out. This is the question of my character: if I decided to cope with me it is impossible. To make a pleasant mom, I entered Moiseyev. Dancing there for three more years, and then entered the theater school. A child who grew up in the acting family, often another path simply does not represent. Although my mother often said: "I do not understand which of Anki artist?"
- You went to the scene from early childhood. Do you remember your debut?
- Of course I remember. The first time I went to the scene in the theater on a small armor, where my grandmother worked. In the play "Marriage" on the stage at some point six little girls and six little boys ran out. Olga Yakovlev was supposed to take the smallest girl and say: "For whom they marry them will go? .." before each exit to the scene, she "weighed", raising all the children, to raise the easiest child on stage. I was the smallest, so this privilege went to me. Then Olga Yakovleva handed me to Mikhail Kozakov, and I, holding his checkered pants, had to stand with him next. And in the final I kept the hand of Nikolai Volkov. It was my first outlet. I remember the incredible beauty of crinoline dresses, hats with roses, some incredible beauty ...
- And with the grandmother, actress Elena Dmitriev, went on stage?
- Yes. My grandmother was a big hooligan. In the play "The Wizard of the Emerald City" she played the Bastland. When Ellie poured it with water, she began to vote: "What are you doing, girl?! I'm not worried about thirty years old! Oh, Tay! " She melted so - immersed in a big hatch under the enthusiastic cries of children: "Get out! Go away! You are bad!" And somehow once grandmother has taken me. She said: "You go to the hall, and when I ask:" Who is with me? ", Tell me:" I am! "And go to me - fall together in Luke." I came my starry hour! The children were shocked ... True, after the play, grandmother did a strict reprimand, they were almost fired from the theater, but we had the most wonderful impressions of both! (Laughs.)
- Your daughters Anastasia and Marusya are relevant to the acting profession?
- No, and I have never had such a goal. I probably not very good in this sense of my mother: I can not praise the daughters for not seeing. I am a maximalist. I'm afraid to see that something does not work with them, but to talk to them the opposite. Elder, Anastasia, tried to act on the acting, but herself quickly realized that it was not her. With childhood, it perfectly drawn and works just in this area. Now I already see in her acting curves, but the daughter is not interested. And the youngest, Marusya, I must say, wants to become an actress. She is studying at the theater faculty. If she finishes him and she will still have a desire to tie his life with the theater, let him try.
- On your eyelashes - blue mascara. Is it for a role?
- Blue mascara is my love with youth, from the institute. I always paint blue ink, on the site, including. Black mascara just does not go. I have black enough bright eyebrows, and when the eyelashes are also painted black, it seems to me, I become like a Georgian. (Laughs.)
- There is an opinion that if you want to know what woman will become in the future - look at her mom. What do you think, are you - in character and externally - like your mother?
- My daughters and husband are increasingly noticed: "Oh, God! You are now poured your mom! " I don't know what they mean, it's good or bad. (Laughs.) Although when we are seen with my mother (just like me with my children), they are striking how much we are. At all! Although manners, "physics", Mimica - this, of course, another question ...
- What would you like to be like your mom?
- I want to be like himself. I do not want to be like any dad, nor on my mother, nor on my grandmother. Not in the sense that it is bad - no. "You are in yourself," once Mom said very accurately. Of course, in me there is a lot from her, and from the dad. And it is from this mixture, when you take all the things in almost a little, it turns out something completely new.
