Amazon.com Essential Video

Officially produced to commemorate the 10-year anniversary of the Russian Revolution, October quickly became another of Sergei Eisenstein's experiments in film form. As in his masterpiece, Battleship Potemkin, Eisenstein uses explosive montage to create the spirit of revolution--in this case, the events in St. Petersburg during the months leading up to the Bolshevik revolt. Eisenstein's insistence on speaking the language of pure film (deploying space, shadow, movement, and rhythm to create his meaning) shoves his mad rush of images straight into the viewer's eye. A worker's rebellion in the streets, followed by the raising of bridges to isolate their neighborhood, becomes a visual symphony of panic. The film has also been known as Ten Days That Shook the World, its release title in the U.S. (borrowed from the book by John Reed). Its value as propaganda can be debated, but October is incredibly dynamic as film art. --Robert Horton

4.0étoiles sur 5 Seminal Eisenstein, Jui 30 2002
Par Un client
This movie is not exactly designed for casual enjoyment. It's no surprize that it was not very popular when it was first released. Eisenstein takes a fairly intricate, if not convoluted, episode in history and recreates it through a maddening pace of of montage intercut, while establishing no particular characters to build any story around. So the film must be appreciated almost solely for the technique of its brilliant director (along with an excellent Shostakovich soundtrack). Not a great date flick, this is an ideal DVD for students of film history to challenge themselves.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Leave politics at the door..., Fév 3 2002
.. I won't go into the propaganda nature of this film. It's obvious &, to me, unimportant in enjoying this movie as entertainment. What I will say is that this picture has left a mark on my mind & it's not due to any inherent political nature- it's because it's a very entertaining film. The story of an indigenous man who gets placed in power (after almost being killed) by a group who attempts to use him to get what they want only to be overcome in the end by "the masses" is fantastically displayed in this silent film. The lack of vocals only seems to add to it's quality. This movie contains one of the funniest scenes ever put to film & it could've only been done in a silent film using font size- the 1st meeting w/ the reincarnation of the Dali Lama. Oh, my. I had to watch it 3 times in a row the 1st time I saw it. Plus the soundtrack that was added works perfectly. Sometimes this isn't the case w/ DVD/VHS releases of silent films.. Don't be afraid if you couldn't pick Eisenstein, Pudovkin or Kalatozov out of a line up. Buy it, rent it, whatever. Just watch it.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Surprisingly accurate documentary/propaganda movie, Mai 9 2001
Par Charles Ashbacher "(cashbacher@yahoo.com)" (Marion, Iowa United States(cashbacher@yahoo.com)) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Ten Days That Shook the World (VHS Tape)
Despite being a propaganda film created under the "overall" leadership of Joseph Stalin, this description of Lenin's rise to power is even-handed. Lenin is portrayed as a dedicated revolutionary, but not as a figure of a personality cult. While the Tsarist regime is criticized, it is not heavy-handed. Even Kerensky, the most memorable leader of the short-lived interim republic is portrayed in an honest way. Finally, Stalin appears only in a minor role, appearing as simply another of the band of core Bolsheviks.
From the historical perspective, the film is also surprisingly accurate. There are no outlandish tales of proletarian heroism, only the description of a political system that fell under the weight of an archaic feudal structure and the strain of a terrible war. Granted that there are some excesses in the tale and none of those of the Bolsheviks is mentioned, overall it is better than most documentaries. One wonders what Stalin had in mind when he allowed it to be made in this manner.
As a piece of film, the work is also first rate, given the state of the art at the time. Armed with a historical knowledge of the events, one cannot help but be caught up in the action. The backdrop adds to the power, as you are seeing it at the exact locations. Almost as if a film about the president of the US was shot in the oval office. It doesn't have the precise look of a movie set, but the realism more than makes up for it.
Lenin was one of the few people of this century who truly changed the world, although surprisingly, it didn't last the century. Much like the quiet way that the Tsarist state vanished, no one would have believed that after 60 years, the communist government in the Soviet Union was pass away so easily. It was ten days that shook the world, but from the viewpoint of long-term history it was a quick shake.
