my teacher in film history didn't believe they used a moving camera in this scene, BUT THIS PROVES HER WRONG!!

Im a huge critic of old movies, not that they weren't great or anything or made their mark in that time period, but due to the saturation of whats mainstream now i find it hard to stomach old dry dialogue and especially silent movies, but this scene had me gripped from beginning to end purely genius.

continue...the ugly woman going insane with dead child in her arms balanced with young beautifull mother with baby... timing of cuts in the climax at the end when details of young guy, old woman and buggy are changing rapidly cant be better... So much emotion, so much action in 1925, such a psychological work in 7 minutes...Eisenstein was a genius.

I love this scene. imho best scene of kinematography ever. Moving camera, dramatisation, camrea taking of soldiers is going closer and closer and finaly its details of shoes and filming of shots from unnusual angels, cut is briliant and cant be better, music is really best (imagine pianos in most of movies in that time an years after this movie)...

Dudes, this is for you trotskyist88 and you dAvrilthebear - why must any video that is remotely political devolve into a pros vs cons debate of communism. I'm not saying it's not important to value and analyse our history but youtube is not the place to hold such debates. That's just my view anyway, feel free to correct me if i am somehow mistaken in my musings.Yours, vzbyrne

This is definitely a ground-breaking clip. The ground's just been broken for so long, it's hard for the viewers of today to realize it.
