Cinema keeps its people visible long after the industry that produced them has changed shape.
Formal recognition came in the shape of the Order of Lenin (1986) and Order of the October Revolution (1977).
That the work was made from Russia shaped it: national industries differ in what they finance, who they cast and which audiences they can reach.
Mikhail Ulyanov died in 2007, aged 80. The films remain, which is the only form in which a screen career survives.
