Anna Vladlenovna Samokhina (Russian: Анна Владленовна Самохина; 14 January 1963 – 8 February 2010[1]) was a Russian actress. Samokhina started her film career in the 1980s and quickly became popular due to her talent, beauty and charm. She is best known as the leading actress in Yuri Kara's Barons of Crime (rus. Воры в законе[2]), a most outlandish, brutal and controversial Soviet film, about mafia and corruption in the late USSR.
At the end of the 1990s, Samokhina stopped working in cinema, focusing primarily on her private life and restaurant business. In 2008, she returned to cinema and participated in several pictures.
The actress was married twice. From her first marriage, she had a daughter, Alexandra, who later became an actress too.[3]
In November 2009, Anna Samokhina was diagnosed with stomach cancer at a late stage. Until 1 February 2010, Russian press and many actors in country did not know that her illness was very serious. She died on 8 February 2010 in a hospital in Saint Petersburg.[4]
