Today we lost one of the brightest actresses of Soviet theatre and cinema, a beauty, a lyrical heroine and a refined, cultivated woman: Nina Urgant. Nina Nikolayevna passed away in her 93rd year. Naturally, everyone has now recalled the song that became a beloved anthem of the whole nation, "We Need Just One Victory" from the film "Belorussky Station", as performed by Nina Urgant.
