โ€“ Lenin, 1905.

A dramatized account of a great Russian naval mutiny and a resulting street demonstration which brought on a police massacre.

After the success of Strike (1924), Sergei Eisenstein was commissioned by the Soviet government to make a film commemorating the uprising of 1905. Eisenstein's scenario, boiled down from what was to have been a multipart epic of the occasion, focussed on the crew of the battleship Potemkin. Fed up with the extreme cruelties of their officers and their maggot-ridden meat rations, the ... read more

To be honest, it has been a while since I have this flick and I should probably re-watch it at some point. By now, I have seen more than 7000 movies and, following this mad obsession about movies, I have seen many very old classics and I have noticed that it is very often hit-and-miss with such timelessย  features. Indeed, with some of them, I could see right away why they have been heralded throu... read more

The movie revolves around an uprising on board the Battleship Potemkin (Bronenosets Potyomkin) in 1905. Conditions on the ship are unbearable, which in turn incites revolutionary fervor among the sailors, most notably within the character of Vakulinchik.

2020: Others (341 movies items)

"Il film che tutti non hanno visto (quorum ego, fino a stamane) sconta lo sfondo propagandistico, ma le forzature che ne derivano sono davvero gli unici appunti che gli si possano fare. Un racconto potente sin dalle ondate che si infrangono in apertura: il formalismo, con la sua attenzione a corpi e oggetti spesso esaltata dagli spazi ridotti della nave, non risulta una gabbia, ma il punto di partenza per una costruzione di grande fascino narrativo e soprattutto visivo. Fra le tante, due sequenze"

"29.3. 2020 Eisenstein's famous masterpiece hasn't lost its impact. It is beautiful, tragic, and bold film that doesn't exaggarate crimes committed by brutal monarchist tyrants. Some simple-minded and ignorant viewers like to label this film as propaganda, like it means something, despite the fact that the depiction of revolution in the film is actually very precise with all its little details. Obviously everything that happens in the film didn't happen exactly like in reality but that's not imp"
