Putin told Tikhonov he is one of Russia's favorite actors and said he hoped to see him on the screen and stage again The actor, for his part, said he "came to the president not for an award but to shake his hand and thank him for all the big and good things he is doing for the country," according to the state-run ITAR-Tass news agency
The actor, sitting with Putin and other officials, told anecdotes about incidents stemming from his role as Shtirlitz, including a story about meeting a Russian man in Switzerland who said he never would have chosen his profession if not for the movie
In an official ceremony at his residence outside Moscow, Putin hung an Order for Service to the Fatherland, Third Class around the neck of actor Vyacheslav Tikhonov, who was invited to visit the president on his 75th birthday
Putin has said he decided to join the KGB at age 16, several years before "Seventeen Moments of Spring" came out, but Tikhonov's character influenced other young Soviets during the Cold War
Putin's 16-year KGB career included a stint in East Germany, where sketchy accounts suggest his deeds were modest compared with those of the fictional Shtirlitz
After presenting Tikhonov with the cross-shaped medal and a large bouquet of flowers, Putin invited him to share champagne with top security officials, including the leaders of the domestic and foreign intelligence agencies that are the KGB's main successors
The suave Shtirlitz is never found out despite countless close calls, and his cool at the tensest moments made him a kind of James Bond of Soviet film â€â€? though with fewer gadgets and girls and a more serious air given the gravity of the war, which killed some 27 million Soviet soldiers and civilians Putin Decorates Favorite Russian TV Spy
Feb 8, 4:37 PM EST
Two of Russia's most famous former spies â€â€? one real and one from the movies â€â€? met Saturday when President Vladimir Putin decorated an actor who starred in a hugely popular film serial set in World War II
In "Seventeen Moments of Spring," a 1973 television serial that reruns every year, Tikhonov played Col
The gathering aired during the evening news on Russia's main television networks
Maxim Isayev â€â€? known in Germany as Shtirlitz â€â€? a Soviet double agent in World War II Berlin whose web of intrigue contributes greatly to the allied victory over the Nazis
Putin's high popularity only will benefit from his appearance with the beloved Tikhonov
