Revisiting the Classics: BATTLESHIP POTEMKIN (1925). I last saw this a decade ago, in a fairly muddy print- shame on me for not correcting that sooner. This was a much more engaging watch in a better looking version, and you can see why it’s been a centerpiece of film study for decades- not to mention one highly effective propaganda piece. And the Odessa Steps sequence is still amazing and impressive after all these years. #silentfilm #sovietfilm
Teacups and snackies and old Russian SciFi,
These are a few of my favorite things… #sovietfilm #scifi #tradition
