A Man from the Boulevard des Capucines (Russian: Человек с бульвара Капуцинов, romanizedChelovek s bulvara Kaputsinov) is a 1987 Red Western comedy film (Mosfilm production) directed by Alla Surikova, with nods to silent film and the transforming power of celluloid.

This film is particularly unusual in Soviet cinema for two reasons: first, it was directed by one of the few female Soviet directors of any stature, and second it was a rare post-modernist Soviet outing.

The film had the highest ratings in the Soviet Union in 1987, with 60 million viewers.[citation needed]
