Jeff says: “If Peter Greenaway is your cup of tea, you’ll rank this right up there with his best. As usual his painterly eye makes for some gorgeous visuals, and Elmer Bäck creates a wonderfully louche Eisenstein.”
Bruce says: “The film’s soundtrack largely relies on the intense range of passions in the music of Sergei Prokofiev, an appropriate choice since Prokofiev had scored Eisenstein’s ALEXANDER NEVSKY and IVAN THE TERRIBLE. Prokofiev was renowned for his uncanny ability to create music that mirrored the visual image.”
