  1. Mikhail Boyarsky is a great actor, I think. But he is well-known for the role in 1978's film d'Artagnan and Three Musketeers. It is a three-part musical miniseries produced in the Soviet Union. It is based on the novel The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas.The film stars Mikhail Boyarsky as d'Artagnan, Veniamin Smekhov as Athos, Igor Starygin as Aramis, Valentin Smirnitsky as Porthos, Margarita Terekhova as Milady de Winter, Oleg Tabakov as King Louis XIII, Alisa Freindlich as Anne of Austria, and Aleksandr Trofimov as Cardinal Richelieu. The film, and its numerous songs became extremely popular in the Soviet Union throughout the late 1970s and early 1980s, and is now considered a classic. The miniseries was filmed in different locales around the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic (current day Ukraine), using several of the country's fortresses and old cities, such as Lvov.
