Konkin has never served in the Army (due to poor health) but, somewhat ironically, played mostly military men, invariably romantic, mild and intelligent. The part of Sharapov in [[Stanislav Govorukhin]]'s ''[[The Meeting Place Cannot Be Changed]]'' (1979) marked the peak of Vladimir Konkin's cinema career.<ref name="rusactors"/> "The character of Sharapov hasn't lost its relevance. Regardless of whether we accept today's 'rules of the game', what we look for is straight honesty in those people who are there to protect us," Konkin asserted in a 2002 interview.<ref name="rod"/> In 1974–1978 Konkin appeared in several successful films, including [[Andrei Konchalovsky]]'s ''[[A Lover's Romance]]'', Boris Ivchenko's ''Marina'', and Georgy Kalatozishvili's ''The Caucasian Story''.
