Russia In Revolt

Four film collector's edition. Strike - A chilling account of the brutality used against the common people when a peaceful strike in 1912 escalated into a pitched battle with cavalry soldiers, resulting in widescale massacre. Eisenstein's first feature film (Silent). The Battleship Potemkin - In the film that brought Russian cinema and director Eisenstein to world attention, an incident during the 1905 Revolution is recreated, when the crew of the Potemkin mutinied rather than eat rotting food, setting off a brutal massacre. October 1917 - Like THE END OF ST.PETERSBURG, this was commissioned for the 10th anniversary of the 1917 Revolution. Key events like the storming of the Winter Palace and the fall of the Kerensky government are graphically depicted, but it was unpopular for its confusing imagery and drastic cutting to remove all reference to Trotsky. Originally silent, it was re-released in 1967 with a score by Shostakovich. The Falling Of The Romanov Dynasty - Much mystery surrounds the 1917 Russian Revolution, and historian, Esfir Shub has spent many hours unravelling the mystery. This documentary reveals the amazing account of what happened.

The title role is taken by the great Russian bass Evgeny Nesterenko, at the peak of his career, and the conductor is Alexander Lazarev.
