Tatiana Yevgenyevna Samoilova (Template:Lang-ru; 4 May 1934 – 4 May 2014) was a Soviet and Russian film actress who starred in The Cranes Are Flying (1957), The Unsent Letter (1959) and Anna Karenina (1967).

Evgeny Samoilov's only daughter, she was born in Leningrad, but her father moved to Moscow to work with Vsevolod Meyerhold later that year. Samoilova was propelled to stardom in 1957, when she played the lead role of Veronika in The Cranes Are Flying. The film was a tremendous success, winning the Palme d'Or at Cannes and a special prize for Samoilova along with a Best Lead Actress nomination for her at the BAFTA Awards. She received many offers to continue her career in the West, but declined in the face of mounting pressure from the establishment of the day.[citation needed]

In the 1960s, Samoilova had several movie roles, including Anna Karenina in the 1967 Soviet version of Tolstoy's novel. She appeared in the movie alongside her former husband Vasily Lanovoy (as Count Vronsky) and Maya Plisetskaya (as Karenina's friend Betsy). In 1993, she was named a People's Artist of Russia.

In 2007 she was awarded with a Lifetime Achievement Award at the 29th Moscow International Film Festival.[1]

On 3 May 2014, the eve of her 80th birthday, Samoilova was taken to hospital in serious condition with coronary heart disease and hypertension. She died, one day later, on 4 May 2014 (23:30).[2]
