Soviet filmmakers also produced many historical adventure films, such as D'Artagnan and Three Musketeers and Gardes-Marines, Ahead!. Among those, "osterns", the Soviet take on the westerns, became also popular. Examples of the Ostern include "White Sun of the Desert" (1970), "The Headless Horseman" (1972), "Armed and Dangerous" (1977), "A Man from the Boulevard des Capucines" (1987). On TV, mystery and spy miniseries were prevalent, such as "Seventeen Moments of Spring, The Meeting Place Cannot Be Changed, Investigation Held by ZnaToKi" and a faithful adaptation of Sherlock Holmes stories starring Vasily Livanov as Holmes.
