Western professor of Russian in Russian film and literature

[Boele, O.F.]

Dear Seelangers,

This is, perhaps, a peculiarly narrow question after the recent inquiry
about the "foreigner" in Russian literature, but I'd be very grateful if
you could name some examples of "western professors of Russian" in
Russian film (or literature). Of course, there is Bill Hansen in "Osenii
marafon" (1979) and Karl in the more obscure "Emigrantka" (2003), who
both end up in the vytrezvitel', but is that all? Any input would be
highly appreciated.

Regards,
