Review of The End of St. Petersburg (1927) by Michael M — 30 Aug 2008
Very interesting if you're looking into the early years of cinema. Like a lot of Socialist realism of the time, it's about as subtle as a sledgehammer, and I couldn't suppress giggles at the final scene with the potatoes, BUT.
.. it must be said that film wouldn't be where it is today were it not for this film. The pre-WWI stockmarket scenes are uncannily familiar...
