Abstract

Moving Pictures. The Language of Images
Bakshy, Alexander | December 26, 1928 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information about the motion picture "Ten Days That Shook the World." The critics found the motion picture confusing and sometimes even boring. It does confuse people who are not familiar with the October Revolution, who know nothing about the struggle between the different revolutionary factions and to whom the topography of St. Petersburg is a sealed secret. Nor is it possible to deny that the picture often loses tempo by marking time over sequences which contain no action or are excessively repetitious.
