The golden age of Soviet cinema, in the years following the Russian Revolution, was a time of both achievement and contradiction, as reflected in the films of Eisenstein, Pudovkin, and Kuleshov. Tensions ran high between creative freedom and institutional constraint, radical and reactionary impulses, popular and intellectual cinema, and film as social propaganda and as personal artistic expression. In less than a decade, the creative ferment ended, subjugated by the ideological forces that accompanied the rise of Joseph Stalin and the imposition of the doctrine of Socialist Realism on all the arts. Soviet Cinema in the Silent Era, 1918–1935 records this lost golden age. Denise Youngblood considers the social, economic, and industrial factors that influenced the work of both lesser-known and celebrated directors. She reviews all major and many minor films of the period, as well as contemporary film criticism from Soviet film journals and trade magazines. Above all, she captures Soviet film in a role it never regained—that of dynamic artform of the proletarian masses.

Sergei Bondarchuk’s War and Peace, one of the world’s greatest film epics, originated as a consequence of the Cold War. Conceived as a response to King Vidor’s War and Peace, Bondarchuk’s surpassed that film in every way, giving the USSR one small victory in the cultural Cold War for hearts and minds. This book, taking up Bondarchuk’s masterpiece as a Cold War film, an epic, a literary adaptation, a historical drama, and a rival to Vidor’s Hollywood version, recovers—and expands—a lost chapter in the cultural and political history of the twentieth century. Like many great works of literature, Tolstoy’s epic tale proved a major challenge to filmmakers. After several early efforts to capture the story’s grandeur, it was not until 1956 that King Vidor dared to bring War and Peace to the big screen. American critics were lukewarm about the film, but it was shown in the Soviet Union to popular acclaim. This book tells the story of how the Soviet government, military, and culture ministry—all eager to reclaim this Russian masterpiece from their Cold War enemies—pulled together to make Bondarchuk’s War and Peace possible. Bondarchuk, an actor who had directed only one film, was an unlikely choice for director, and yet he produced one of the great works of Soviet cinema, a worthy homage to Tolstoy’s masterpiece—an achievement only sweetened when Russia’s Cold War adversary recognized it with the Academy Award’s Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film of 1968. Denise Youngblood examines the film as an epic (and at seven hours long, released in four parts, at a cost of nearly $700,000,000 in today’s dollars, it was certainly that), a literary adaptation, a complex reflection on history, and a significant artifact of the cultural Cold War between the US and the USSR. From its various angles, the book shows us Bondarchuk’s extraordinary film in its many dimensions—aesthetic, political, and historical—even as it reveals what the film tells us about how Soviet patriotism and historical memory were constructed during the Cold War.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2002 im Fachbereich Filmwissenschaft, Note: 1, Philipps-Universität Marburg (Neuere deutsche Literatur und Medien), Veranstaltung: Ernst Lubitsch, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: "Endlich kommt es auch zu uns! Das Meisterwerk von Ernst Lubitsch. Hier geht es wirklich um Sein oder Nichtsein. Schauspieler spielen um ihr Leben!" So schwärmte der deutsche Original-Trailer , als "Sein oder Nichtsein" mit einiger Verspätung 1960 endlich in die hiesigen Kinos kam. Der kleine Verleih Hamburger Deutsche Film hatte sich Lubitschs Spätwerk angenommen und vermarktete es mit dem unpassenden Beinamen "Heil Hamlet". Der Film galt jahrzehntelang als heikel und eine Veröffentlichung in Deutschland als risikoreich. Zu radikal waren bereits die Anfeindungen gewesen, die Lubitsch 1941 mit seinem Film in den USA ausgelöst hatte. In den Vereinigten Staaten führten Anti-Nazi-Satiren Ende der dreißiger, Anfang der vierziger Jahre zu heftigen emotionalen Reaktionen und kaum zu den anvisierten Lachern. Hatte Charlie Chaplins "The Great Dictator" 1940 noch wohlwollende Zurückhaltung geerntet, reagierte die amerikanische Öffentlichkeit und Presse auf "Sein oder Nichtsein" empört. Als Lubitsch im November 1941 mit den Dreharbeiten begonnen hatte, waren die Vereinigen Staaten noch nicht direkt in den II. Weltkrieg involviert. Ganz anders stellte sich die Situation dar, als die Dreharbeiten am 23. Dezember beendet wurden: Nach dem japanischen Angriff auf Pearl Harbor vom 7.Dezember hatten Italien und das Dritte Reich den USA am 11. Dezember den Krieg erklärt. Doch im nachhinein erscheint der Zeitpunkt nicht nur aus weltpolitischen Gründen ungünstig - Hauptdarstellerin Carole Lombard fand kurz vor dem Starttermin bei einem Flugzeugabsturz den Tod, während sie auf einer Amerikatournee für Kriegsanleihen warb. Man unterstellte Lubitsch, er belustige sich auf Kosten eines okkupierten und blutenden Polens. Die New York Times befand seinerzeit, der Film sei geschmacklos, verharmlose die faschistischen Verbrechen und Verbrecher und so wie er ist, "one has a strange feeling, that Mr. Lubitsch is a Nero, fiddling while Rome burns....." .

Based on the premise that a society’s sense of commonality depends upon media practices, this study examines how Hollywood responded to the crisis of democracy during the Second World War by creating a new genre - the war film. Developing an affective theory of genre cinema, the study’s focus on the sense of commonality offers a new characterization of the relationship between politics and poetics. It shows how the diverse ramifications of genre poetics can be explored as a network of experiental modalities that make history graspable as a continuous process of delineating the limits of community.

Lev Kuleshov (1899–1970) was the first aesthetic theorist of the cinema. An outstanding figure in the “montage” school, he was a key influence on Eisenstein and Pudovkin. Kuleshov was the first to see clearly that montage—the assemblage and alternation of shots—was the very essence and structure of cinematic expression, often overriding the significance of the content of the shots themselves. Deriving his insights from close study of American films (particularly D. W. Griffith’s), Kuleshov used his experience in prerevolutionary Russian films and his wartime efforts in Soviet documentaries to conduct experiments in film acting and montage. He developed an editing method later referred to as the “Kuleshov effect” that juxtaposed shots to evoke new meanings from the combinations. In one experiment, he intercut identical shots of an actor’s neutral face with shots of a bowl of soup, a child in a coffin, and a sunny landscape to evoke different emotional responses from the audience. Kuleshov also “synthesized” a nonexistent woman from close-ups of different parts of several women and created artificial landscapes by intercutting shots of locations separated by great distances. Kuleshov taught at the Soviet film school and was a well-known director of features, and Kuleshov on Film contains essays on both the theoretical and practical sides of filmmaking. Influenced by Futurism, Russian Formalism, and structural linguistics, Kuleshov’s analysis can now be seen as semiotic, presaging studies of film as a system of signs. As a Marxist and structuralist, Kuleshov examined form and content with a materialist approach. The translator’s extensive introduction discusses Kuleshov’s use of signs, typage, and other structuralist concepts and places him in the development of semiotic thought. It also provides intriguing biographical detail on Kuleshov’s conflicts with advocates of “socialist realism,” who attempted to stamp out the artistic and theoretical innovations of the early revolutionary years, and establishes Kuleshov’s position as one of the great figures in the evolution of film. Kuleshov on Film is essential reading for everyone seriously concerned with the cinema.
