Eisenstein's Ivan the Terrible in Stalin's Russia
xvii, 404 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm.
Eisenstein's diaries and production notebooks show that he carefully planned Ivan the Terrible to be a devastating critique of Stalinism, a profound study of the tragedy of absolute power and a wildly innovative use of montage, all wrapped inside a narrative that would receive Stalin's approval.
The pot-holed path : Ivan in production -- Shifts in time : Ivan as history -- Power personified : Ivan as biography -- Power projected : Ivan as fugue -- How to do it : Ivan as polyphonic montage -- The official reception : Ivan as triumph and nightmare.
