Thanks!! That's interesting. I guess some of her distant ancestors must have been Russian then although I never knew about it. Tons of Swedish surnames end with -in, so it never really seemed unusual or noteworthy to me until I noticed the name in the film. She has never mentioned anything about Russian ancestry, sadly she died earlier this year, so now I can't ask about it.

Actually, I have seen the actor Yuri Nikulin in some older comedy films, surely a very talented actor!
