Early Russian Cinema, Part 10: The End of an Era*
- 1992 ----- b & w ----- 91 min ----- vhs
- Between the February and October revolutions in 1917, Russian cinema reflected new themes, as in Bauer's The Revolutionary (1917). But Bauer also pursued the traditional subject of thwarted love in what would be his last film, For Luck (1917)--designed by and featuring as an actor the young Kuleshov. A poignant fragment, Behind the Screen (1917), shows the husband-wife stars Mosjoukine and Lisenko on the eve of their departure into exile.
