Yury Vasilyevich Yakovlev (Russian: Юрий Васильевич Яковлев) (born 25 April 1928 in Moscow, Soviet Union) is one of the most popular and critically acclaimed Soviet film actors. He was named People's Artist of the USSR in 1976. Yakovlev joined the Vakhtangov Theatre in 1952 but his first flirtation with fame came in 1955, when he played Prince Myshkin in Ivan Pyryev's adaptation of The Idiot. Yakovlev followed his first success with regular appearances in Eldar Ryazanov's comedies, most notably Hussar Ballad (1962), in which he played Poruchik Rzhevsky. The feature was such a resounding success that Rzhevsky's character gave rise to innumerable Russian jokes. In the 1960s and 1970s Yakovlev's career was varied and interesting, his roles ranging from Stiva Oblonsky in the classic Soviet adaptation of Anna Karenina (1968) to the paranoically jealous Ippolit in another of Ryazanov's comedies, The Irony of Fate (1975). His participation in a series of films about World War II won him the USSR State Prize for 1979.
