Review of The End of St. Petersburg (1927) by Trevor O — 13 Jul 2008
There are some very powerful scenes and some frankly unforgettable visual sequences - the scenes of the first world war for example, or the beginning of the workers' strike. Take it from me, Pudovkin's direction is absolutely masterful and I think it's sad that seemingly so few people have discovered him.
But with all that said, by today's standards this doesn't quite have the staying power of Chaplin or Keaton.
