Not all fans know the truth about the picture.
Ilya Fraz presented the Soviet audience with the film “We didn’t pass through” in the mid-70s. Fans warmly received the film, and especially appreciated the work of Tatyana Kanaeva, who played the role of 8th grade student Mila Khodzitskaya.
As the audience noted, the actress, for whom the film became her debut, very plausibly got used to the role of a schoolgirl and even outwardly was indistinguishable from an eighth-grader thanks to her neat bob and the complete absence of makeup. In fact, Kanaeva had nothing to do with her heroine for a long time. It turned out that by the time the film was released, she was already 27 years old, she graduated from the institute.
At the same time, the next film for the artist was the sports drama “The Second Attempt of Viktor Krokhin”, where Lyudmila Gurchenko and Nikolai Rybnikov starred with her. There she played the role of the protagonist’s bride and already looks her age.
