Vera Vasilyevna Kholodnaya (née Levchenko, 5th August 1893 – 16th February 1919), Russian cinema actress
Kholodnaya was the first star of Imperial Russian silent cinema. Only five of her films still exist and the total number she acted in is unknown, with speculation ranging between fifty and one hundred.
Official Russian records state that Kholodnaya died of the Spanish flu during the pandemic of 1919. Other stories claim she was poisoned by the French ambassador, with whom she reportedly had an affair and who believed that she was a spy for the Bolsheviks.
