Review of Battleship Potemkin (1925) by Alan H — 10 Sep 2010
I had heard a lot about this fiolm by Eisenstein, but never seen it until now. Yes, it is a masterpiece of propoganda. The rebellion of crew of the battleship stemming from one spoonfull of borscht. The oppression of the crew by the officers, and the oppression of the people by the imperial army was enough to light the fuse of rebellion. Cossacks killing women and children whipped the people into a frenzy...
If you are interested in politics, propoganda, Soviet history, or related subjects you need to watch this film.
