Ivan the Terrible, Part One (1944)

£0.00


Country: USSR
Technical: bw 95m
Director: Sergei Eisenstein
Cast: Nicolai Cherkassov, Lyudmila Tselikovskaya, Serafima Birman

Synopsis:

Young Ivan attempts to expand and unite Russian territory, but faces sedition from within the aristocracy.

Review:

Eisenstein's cracking historical portrait, part panegyric, part veiled contemporary history, gets off to an impressive start with besieging of the Mongols in the east and claustrophobic conspiracy at court. Cinematically, it takes a step away from montage in favour of mise en scene.
