It has also occurred to me that Nikita Mikhalkov (the actor in that clip from Ya shagayu po Moskve) was a sort of unconscious model for Gennady. There's even a scene (a flashback) that draws on the scene in that clip: the bit where Gennady is in the Moscow subway with his girlfriend, and she calls him back down the escalator because he's dropped a mitten.
