She is believed to have been assassinated along with the rest of her family in the Ipatiev House in Ekaterinburg on July 17, 1918.
She has been impersonated on several occasions. The two most famous instances were an American woman named Eugenia Smith and a woman calling herself "Anna Anderson."
The possible survival of Anastasia has also been the subject of several films. Although the earliest such film was made in 1928 and the most recent a historically inaccurate 1997 musical animated film Anastasia[?], the most famous is probably the 1956 Anastasia[?] starring Ingrid Bergman, Yul Brynner, and Helen Hayes.
