  • "A man from the Boulevard des Capucines" is a Red Western comedy film of 1987 Mosfilm production, with nods to silent film and the transforming power of celluloid. It is particularly unusual in Soviet cinema for two reasons : It was directed by one of the few female Soviet directors of any stature, Alla Surikova, and it was a rare post-modernist outing.
