Liya Akhedzhakova is a little gem of Soviet cinema. She was a show-stealer in such a comedy classic as Ironiya sudby, ili S legkim parom! (1975) in a part with no words at all. Her ability to create a larger than life heroes is almost unbelievable. Every second line of her Verochka from Sluzhebnyy roman (1977) became a catch-phrase.
