The whole country watched not only domestic, but also foreign cinema, where the artist often appeared.

While the young generation enjoyed cartoons, whose heroes spoke in the voice of Maria Sergeevna. In childhood, Maria Vinogradova was born in a town called Navoloki, located in the Ivanovo region on July 13. Mary's parents remember as good and responsive people. The girl’s mother was very sociable, active and creative nature. Subsequently, the actress more than once noted that it was her mother who told her fairy tales, her own compositions that she liked so much.

From mother to Mary “crossed”, mischief, which often passed into pranks. In childhood, the girl moved through the fence to the garden to the neighbors, and there was a previously unexpected goat, which but overlaid the future artist. Masha instantly turned out to be in her yard, and the neighboring children called her Masha-Koza for a long time. The creative vein was in Maria Sergeevna since childhood.

Her creative debut took place during the years of kindergarten, when she, standing on stage with huge bows, read a poem dedicated to Lenin. In school years, the future artist became a regular participant in all amateur mugs. Having a low voice, she sang in the choir in Altas and, along with this team, managed to attend many concerts and contests. Her piggy bank has a huge number of various awards and diplomas.

After receiving a diploma of graduation, Maria Sergeevna went to Moscow, where she submitted documents to VGIK, it was a year. At that time, Lev Kuleshov recruited his class in the educational institution. On the day when Maria Vinogradova came to take entrance exams, there were a huge number of applicants, while there were only three places. Masha did not show excitement at all, since by this moment she had already managed to get used to the stage and the public, and the commission in her opinion was quite friendly.

However, events that day unfolded not according to the usual scenario. Marina was not asked to read either the prepared poem, nor tell the fable, nor to show an excerpt from the literary masterpiece "Danko's Legends". But they offered to sing a young artist, which, according to her, they regretted her, since she sang Kukarachu following the request of the commission.

After the performance of this small study, Maria Vinogradova specified whether the girl could dance and this became a decisive factor, because the girl not only loved, but also knew how to do it. The wife of Leo Kuleshov Alexander, who was sitting in the selection committee, even got up from his place to consider the young talent as best as possible. On that day, the entrance exams was lucky for two guys and one “black and small” girl.

This is what all members of the introductory commission called Vinogradov. During her student years, the girl received the nickname "Fly" for her indefatigable energy, mischief and frantic energy. The creative life of the creative biography of Maria Sergeevna began in the year when the girl first appeared on the TV screen, starring in a film called Siberian. At that time, the young actress was only eighteen years old.

Maria Sergeevna played a student of the sixth grade, and already at that time trave was firmly entrenched in her. At the end of the second year, the girl’s life, like all students of the Soviet Union, changed - the war began. Like many of her fellow students, Maria Vinogradova went into evacuation. So, the future star of cinema was in the city of Alma-Ata. We got there for a month, being in difficult conditions.

But having arrived at the place, they were able to get only a small ration. Four hundred grams of bread to the growing body of young people was simply not enough. Much later, the actress recalled that the guys from the Faculty of Art, managed to reliably fake grocery cards, which often became a real salvation. Some time after placing students in the evacuation of students, they attached to one of the local canteens, which they called “but Pasaran” since the food that was issued there was absorbed with great difficulty.

Maria Vinogradova, in her youth, being the third -year student of the Maria Theater Institute, received an invitation to star in a television project, which later became known as “We are from the Urals”. In the tape, the director showed the life of the young generation, which, by virtue of its capabilities, tried to help the front. On the large screen, the picture was never shown, since it did not pass rigid censorship and received negative reviews from critics.At the same time, the review indicated frivolity as one of the main reasons, and it was not allowed in wartime.

The actress herself was able to see this project, only at old age and then she greatly appreciated her and was proud of her participation in the project. Immediately after that, the girl was accepted into the troupe of the theater studio of the film actor. In the same year, the theater’s star was invited to Poland, where she starred in the film “The Last Stage”. It is worth noting that this project was the first in the history of the entire world cinema, which revealed the theme of the Holocaust and the tragedy of fascist concentration camps.

Here Vinogradova played one of the few main roles in her creative list. Filming was a difficult test for the entire team. The terrible topic itself was supplemented by the scenery and the site, which was organized in a real camp for women. Upon returning to Moscow, Vinogradov, like many others, faced many difficulties. First of all, the girl had nowhere to live. She rented a room, but the main committee refused to pay for her.

It was then, by the way, that I had to go along with part of the troupe on tour. The theater of the film actor went to Potsdam, being in Germany as part of the Soviet troupe. Due to her configuration, Maria Vinogradova again plunged into the role of trave. With each new production, the repertoire of the young actress was replenished with new roles, including quite characteristic.

Upon returning to the capital, the girl did not change the native theater of the film actor and decided to leave his scene only after numerous scandals in the rows of the troupe. Maria Vinogradova The next main role in the repertoire of the public appeared in her creative biography in the year. Then she was already thirty -six years old, and she again played the child.

It was a project known to the entire Soviet viewer, which was called the Star Boy. Few, after the first viewing, realized that the main character of the boy was already played by an adult woman. The star path of the actress for the most part consisted of episodic roles. Maria Sergeevna never refused proposals. And not because I couldn’t say to someone, but simply for the reason that I did not want to be not “in the subject”.

Each episode played by the actress was an acting study in which she invested all her acting skills. Over the years, the role of the star has remained unchanged and rather specific: old women, characteristic characters, barmers. Against the background of all these images, the role in the film “From the Life of Vacations” stood out with its role. Here the artist reincarnated into an arrogant beauty.

Vinogradov received her role at that time quite by accident. The director of the picture Nikolai Gubenko initially invited Galina Volchek to this role. However, the actress put the group with many conditions that were unbearable and impossible. Mary was then called only for the reason that the actress never refused, although, according to the director, she did not fit at all in temperament or appearance.

However, the result was unexpected, and the image fell to the very point. Subsequently, throughout all years, Maria Vinogradova was grateful to Gubenko, for the chance to play an unexpected role for herself. Energy, unpretentiousness and willingness to always begin work led to the fact that the filming schedule of the actress was scheduled for many months in advance. At the same time, there were not so many grandiose roles in the filmography of Maria, but the nickname “Queen of Episodes” firmly entrenched in Vinogradova, making it one of the most popular personalities in Soviet cinema.
