Goofs
The shots of the 'real Soviets' which Mr West and the policeman watch from a balcony are of troops, etc, taken from more than one angle, perspective, etc., and seem hardly to match at all. Perhaps this is deliberate.

An extraordinary movie from the land of bolsheviks...

This is truly an extraordinary film, even for the Golden age of the Soviet cinema. Documentary footage alone guarantees this film a niche in history (Church of Christ the Savior before its demolition, parade). Kuleshov's masterful montage should surprise no one, since the term "Kuleshov effect" wasn't coined out of thin air. Acting is superb, especially by Khokhlova and Vsevolod Pudovkin, himself at that time only a few years away from directorial fame and immortality. The flaws of the film are minor, and are a norm for the films of the time. The strengths are enormous, and make it a true masterpiece.
