    Beautifully filmed and directed for its time. Eisenstein knew what he was doing. Propaganda at its best. You can only imagine the influence of such a wellmade piece at the time, in the post-revolution years. Good (silent era)acting, experimental and revolutionary in terms of camerawork, editing and scenery. A silent masterpiece. 10 years 2 months ago

    This film is considered as one of the best film according to authorities. It is ordered by Lenin to young(27) director Eisenstein.
    The most interesting thing i noticed about this film is that the acting is very natural, not like the other silent films with exaggerated acting.
