Many films I have reviewed would be considered what we refer to as "constructivist" and "modern", Eisenstein was deeply at odds with this approach to film making which is why he could not see eye to eye with his fellow contemporaries such as Dziga Vertov.

Visually the film is so impressive I had a real hard time just settling on one image (so I didn't!)...There's so many stunning shots in this film.
