Description: International customers can save money on s/h charges by selecting Economy Shipping at checkout, which corresponds to DISC ONLY (ie., no artwork; no plastic case)! As always, the brilliance in Eisenstein's films was not limited to the camerawork, but could be found in the subtlety of the message and how it was successfully pandered off onto the viewer. In this case, the message is collectivization in Stalinist Russia. In the theoretical sense of Soviet Communism, it's hard to argue with the film's message that collectivization is good for everyone and certainly just. And in comparison to what life in Czarist Russia was like for the masses, it's a message hard to argue with. However, if you aren't familiar with Soviet history, do some reading before you view the film: the reality was very far from what is portrayed here. Nonetheless, the enthusiasm and optimism shown in the film could possibly influence the uninitiated to view the USSR of the times in a very positive light. THAT is the brilliance of Eisenstein!REGION FREEAPPROX. 121 MINS. RUSSIAN INTERTITLES WITH SWITCHABLE ENGLISH SUBTITLES.
