The beauty is not the first freshness.
In 1947, work on the film was completed, which was destined to replenish the golden fund of Soviet cinema. The main role in the film “Cinderella” was played by Yanina Zheimo, who charmed the audience. The cute blonde cleverly fooled everyone around her finger, hiding her true age.
It never occurred to anyone that the poor young beauty was being played by an adult aunt. In fact, the charming actress was almost 40 years old. But the miniature, fragile figure, pretty face and thin, ringing voice averted all suspicions from the celebrity. Zheimo really looked like a girl.
And yet, the artist had to resort to some tricks in order not to give herself up completely. For example, she asked to schedule her filming exclusively in the evening, citing the fact that in the morning “her face is not the same.” After all, the star was much older than her on-screen sisters, so her fears can be understood.
