Russian Cinema
cinematography began long ago – with the first documentaries by
ordinary photographers. The beginning of cinema in Russia is considered
to be the birth of the" Great silent " in 1898. The history of Russian films
has gone a long way, proudly overcoming strict censorship.

How did it all start?
History says that cinema appeared in Russia at the beginning of the 20th
century and was brought by the French. But this did not prevent
photographers from quickly mastering the art of camerawork and in 1898
they released their first documentary videos. But only 10 years later,
Director Alexander Drankov created the first Russian film - "Ponizova
Volnitsa". This was the birth of the great silent film in Russia, the picture
was black-and-white, silent, short and yet very touching. Drankov's work
started the mechanism of film production, and already in 1910 such
masters of directing as Vladimir Gardin, Yakov Protazanov, Eugene Bauer
and others created worthy movies, adapted Russian classics, filmed
melodramas, detectives and even action films. The second half of the
1910s gave the world such famous figures as Vera Kholodnaya, Ivan

October revolution-the period from 1918 to 1930
The October revolution of 1917 became a real guide for Russian film
Directors to the West. And wartime was not the best time for the
development of cinema. Everything started spinning again in the 20s,
when creative youth inspired by the revolution left a new word in the
development of Russian cinema.

The silver age
The silver age was replaced by the Soviet film avant-garde. It should be
noted that such experimental paintings by Sergei Eisenstein as" Battleship
Potemkin "(1925) and" October " (1927) were Widely known mainly in
the West. This period is remembered by such Directors and their pictures
as Lev Kuleshov- "According to the law", Vsevolod Pudovkin - "Mother",
dzigi Vertov – "a Man with a movie camera", Yakov Protazanov - "the
Trial of three million" and others. Cinema of the 20th century in Russia is
the most vivid period in the history of Russian cinema.

The times of social realism
The history of cinema in Russia this period begins with a great event – in
Russian cinema, there was a soundtrack. The first sound film is
considered to be "trip To life" by Nikolai Ekk. The totalitarian regime that
reigned at that time controlled virtually every film. That is why, when the
famous Eisenstein returned to his homeland, he did not manage to release
his new picture "Bezhin lug". Directors faced severe censorship of cinema
in Russia, so the favorites of the 30s were those who managed not only to
master sound cinema, but also to recreate the ideological mythology of
the great Revolution.

Such Directors successfully adapted their talent to the Soviet regime: the
Vasiliev Brothers and their "Chapaev", Mikhail Romm and "Lenin in
October", Friedrich Ermler and "the Great citizen". But in fact, it was not
as bad as it might seem at first glance. Stalin understood that" ideological
" hits do not go far. Here came the finest hour of the famous Director
Grigory Alexandrov, who became a real king of Comedy. And his wife
Lyubov Orlova is the main star of the screens. The most popular films of
Alexandrov are "Funny guys", "Circus", "Volga-Volga".

The fatal forties-1941-1949
The war changed everything. It was at this time that full-length films
appeared, where the war was no longer full of easy victories and romantic
events, and they tried to reflect all the cruelty that took place at the front.
The first real war films include "Rainbow", "Invasion", "She defends the
Motherland", "Zoya". At this time, the last picture of S. Eisenstein saw the
light – the masterpiece tragedy "Ivan the terrible". The second series of
this film was supposed to be released, but it was banned by Stalin.
