  • In documentary style, events in Petrograd are re-enacted from the end of the monarchy in February of 1917 to the end of the provisional government and the decrees of peace and of land in November of that year. Lenin returns in April. In July, counter-revolutionaries put down a spontaneous revolt, and Lenin's arrest is ordered. By late October, the Bolsheviks are ready to strike: ten days will shake the world. While the Mensheviks vacillate, an advance guard infiltrates the palace. Anatov-Oveyenko leads the attack and declares the proclamation dissolving the provisional government.

      well considering this is a state sponsored advert for the revolution of the soviets , much needed in the day, as much entertaining as the modern approach too historical events ,: I:E band of brothers , Combat the tee vee show of the 1960s. Sharp a fictional account of the napoleonic war in europe of the 19th century . what is great about october is this was movie making in the beginning . a classic teaching device . silent films exposition was imagery , the horse on the bridge the woman with fine clothes , the cossacks at the railway . kerensky entering the people's house *(DUMA) via doorways into corridors of power .

    This movie is a masterpiece on several levels. The musical score by Dimitri Shostakovich is brilliant and makes an already compelling film even more so. It was made at the original locations in Petrograd, which were still the same in 1927 as they were in 1917. October is the best movie about the crucial events of 1917. It is well worth watching and rewatching.

    • @texwiller4029

      If the movie is made in 1927, the original score can not be of Shostakovich, who was then only 21 years old and who had released just two symphonies then. Some parts heard in the movie are from his later production. Another striking thing is appearance of Trotsky: I suspect that those parts were for a long period censured by Stalin. Fortunately he is here too and so at least the video seems to be the original version.

The multiple camera angles to fully cover scenes is so close to modern its pretty nuts.

Yes, Lenin was funded by the Kaiser of Germany - who shipped him back into the country via a sealed train in the middle of WW I in order to spread civil war in the country. The Bolsheviks were traitors to Russia - and pulled out the alliance with the West when they took over the government - the stalwart Allies who kept up their part of the agreement by shipping Russia money, war material, clothing and food. Thus the Bolsheviks were mad dogs who sold out the Allied war effort just like they sold out the Russian people.

Even though the fallout of the October Revolution turned out not so well, the blame can be directed at the likes of Joseph Stalin, who was a VERY BAD leader that had perverted the ideas of Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels, and Vladimir Lenin, in order to build socialism in the WRONG direction. In other words, Stalin had given Communism a BAD NAME.

There were also 510 men transferred as replacements who were from the 328th MG Battalion, 329th MG Battalion, 330th MG Battalion, 338th Infantry, 337th Infantry and the 340th Infantry.

    Unfortunately, this is only a version mutilated by the Stalinist censorship, too. Designed for the 10th anniversary of the revolution, in November 1927, the film was released in Soviet Russian cinemas as late as in March 1928, after Stalin had let all (positiv) depictions of Trotsky and other rivals to be removed. Although at that time they were still famous for the leading roles they played in the revolution, they were recently defeated in the factional struggle after Lenin's death. Even after the premiere, changes were repeatedly requested. In particular, the film was still too intellectual and „formalistic“ to Stalin because it was not only pathetic (in the positive sense) but humorous and often wonderfully ironic (dictators distrust humor and irony as unpredictable and subversive). And so the film had to be changed several times. When asked by American journalists, which author had written the script, Eisenstein replied dryly: “The party”. In spite of all the censoring cuts, the film soon vanished in the USSR (because of the ongoing purges, there would hardly have been any protagonists of the revolution left for the cinematic representation anyway). The mutilated version was mostly criticized abroad as rather incomprehensible. Later on it was shown for many years in the GDR.
    A more complete, restored version on behalf of the German TV stations arte and ZDF was shown at the Berlinale 2012 and broadcast by arte.

      @@martynhanson Of course, censorship was not unique to Stalin's Soviet Union. However, it does not seem very clever to me to speculate about possible censorship of possible feature films in the fight against it. But I think I understand what you mean: In the 1950s, people didn't like critical questions about the fascist past, not even among co-earning collaborators (Although there were, besides lots of books, even some few movies: "Die Brücke", "Die Mörder sind unter uns", "Nackt unter Wölfen" etc.) It was only the 1968 movement that succeeded in breaking through this mutilating of the past, but even from then it took decades for bitter truths to come out (as it did after the end of Stalinism). An example in your sense: when the film "Casablanca" was released in German cinemas, it had been shortened so that it could not be recognized that Viktor Laszlo was a resistance fighter and concentration camp inmate: they did not want to offend the German mind... Conclusion: Feature films are often censored and shortened by uncontrolled powerful people, the intention of the director falsified and abused, too, for political or plain economical reasons. Against this, only enlightenment and democratic control of power, no matter where, can help (that's what I try a little :-)). --- Small addendum: The background of the film "October" were mass arrests and executions - the beginning of the Stalinist terror state. The 1950s were the hesitant new start after an equally terrible fascism in the Federal Republic. Even today, dealing with Stalin's terror in Russia is forbidden, and organizations involved in the subject have been arrested. The informations about the examples you mention are now publicly available. We should protect this success and not downplay it.

      To JRGJRG,
      Am I correct (I think I am) but USA copyright law requires the material/product to be registered, for that law to apply? Also expired copyright can be recopyrighted? So there is no security with a 70 year rule. Big companies from the 1930s still pursue copyright infringments as they may have renewed their copyright. As I found out uploading a late 1930s Bogart movie which I thought was past it's copyright date. But I was running a bit of a test upload so also e-mailed a request to Universal Studios who quicky replied telling me a court fee of about $80,000 dollars if I continued and they went to court. So I removed the upload from the public domain quickly and there for was okay. Apart from 2 strikes from TH-cam (now exstinct).

      Because of money. Early movie cameras were handcranked and film was expensive, so they cranked as slowly as they could get away with (at 12-14 frames per second). Cinema projectors were also handcranked, and they cranked as fast as they could get away with (at something like 18-20 frames per second), so they could show the movie more times and sell more tickets. People then got used to it and if became the norm. When the talkies (the non-silent movies) came, this trick didn't work anymore, so the standard of 24 frames per second was adopted.

    A film that begins with petty, vengeful violence against a Tsar's statue, and ends with a mad mob smashing up Peter the Great's palace. Very prophetic.
    Lenin's merry men sign decrees on land, bread and peace. But the 'Petrograd Proletariat' did not get too much of the first two over the next 20 years, and 'peace'- bought by doing a deal with Hitler- would be canceled by the worst war ever endured by Russia. Those exultant workers and peasants would die like dogs.
    At least 'October's three main architects escaped death in combat or by starvation, purging, gulags or a bullet in the skull.
    Podvoisky became the USSR's guru of physical fitness, an advocate of nudism. He prudently retired before Stalin's Great Terror got into top gear. Eisenstein spent years in the wilderness, most of his film proposals blocked bc he was suspected of 'formalism' and foreign contacts. Grisha Alexandrov fared best, producing the kind of movie Stalin liked: jolly musicals starring Alexandrov's wife.

      Marx and Engels failed to predict either the tempering and adaptability of capitalism or where it would break down. Tsarist Russia was not on their radar for early transit to socialism. Lenin himself was aghast when Russia misbehaved according to his mentors' blueprint.
      The USSR was the outcome of a chapter of fortuitous incidents such as Stolypin's and Franz Ferdinand's assassinations; not the grand climacteric of some 'historically inevitable' process. Marx was a mystagogue over-extrapolating from Blue Books: a false prophet who wreaked havoc among the gullible, the Jim Jones of economics.
