Biography from TheMovieDB

Mikhail Sergeevich Boyarskiy - born in Leningrad, RSFSR, USSR - Soviet and Russian theater and film actor, singer, musician, People's Artist of the RSFSR (1990). From 1988 to 2007, he was the artistic director of the Benefis Theater he created in St. Petersburg. After school, he entered the Leningrad State Institute of Theater, Music and Cinematography (L.F. Makariev’s course), after graduating in 1972, he got an audition for the director of the Lensoviet Theater Igor Petrovich Vladimirov and was accepted into the troupe. He began his theatrical career with participation in extras - in the play "Crime and Punishment" by F.M. Dostoevskiy, where he played a student. Much greater popularity was brought to Mikhail Boyarsky by the main role of the Troubadour in G. Gladkov's musical "The Troubadour and His Friends". Boyarskiy was accidentally noticed by employees of the Moldovan film studio and invited to the film "Bridges" (1973), where the actor starred with Mihai Volontir. Boyarsky's second film work was the episodic role of the Italian tenor Ninardi in Leonid Kvinikhidze's musical vaudeville "Straw Hat" (1974). Fame came to him in 1975 - after the role of Silva in the film "Elder Son". The role of the Wolf in the Soviet-Romanian musical fairy tale "Mama" (1976) also became noticeable. One of the actor's best works was Teodoro in Jan Fried's musical television film Dog in the Manger (1977) based on a play by Lope de Vega. Awards: Order of Friendship (January 22, 2002), Order of Merit for the Fatherland, IV degree (December 25, 2009), Order of Honor (September 21, 2020), Friendship Order (July 19, 2001), Medal "In Commemoration of the 300th Anniversary of St. Petersburg "(2003), Order of Honor (October 25, 2011, Moldova), People's Artist of the RSFSR (December 18, 1990), Honored Artist of the RSFSR (November 26, 1984), Badge of Honor "For Services to St. Petersburg" (2019).

About the Movie Section

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).

Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.

Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)

While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).

Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.

Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
