Everyone who loves cinema should see at least one Potemkin film, this is his masterpiece. It tells the story of a battleship revolt that became a revolutionary movement in pre-Bolshevik czarist Russia. Terrific camerwork, epic recreation of a historical event, astounding movie-making for the time, he actually caused more deaths filming the "storming of the Odessa steps" sequence than the real event in 1917!
