MOSCOW, March 21. /ITAR-TASS/. Olympic figure-skating champion in the team competition Julia Lipnitskaya told that she received a letter from the American director Steven Spielberg. He thanked the 15 -year-old figure skater for the girl in a red coat of Schindler's List.

A week ago, the figure skater said that never saw the letter. "The next day after the press conference where I said that the Spielberg’s letter did not come to me, I got it. And everything was done very quickly, they even apologized for the delay, - said Lipnitskaya .

However, she noted the information about her film debut in Spielberg’s movie is false. "The main thing for me now is figure-skating, which I intend to devote more than one year", she said.

Lipnitskaya prepares to take part in the World Cup, which will be held in Japan from 24 to 30 March 2014.
