Review of Battleship Potemkin (1925) by James-Masaki R — 24 Apr 2011
Pretty hard to fault one of the most influential movies ever made. Even if the Odessa Stairs sequence has been copied to death in homages or even parodies, the original scene, with all the violent shots entact is still one of the most powerful scenes ever assembled.
Although since that one scene is what we all remember, most forget the rest of the movie, and the actual history of the mutiny and the changes it made. The editing of the movie entirely still stands today as a visual marvel that doesn't feel old.
Pretty impressive feat almost 90 years later.
