Outskirts (1933)
Directed by Boris
Barnet this film stars Sergey Komarov, Elena Kuzmina, Robert Erdmann
and Alexnader Chistyakov. We follow the people of a small town in
tsarist Russia through WW1.
Like many a film from
Russia in this period there is more than a hint of communist
propaganda about this film as strikers put a side their concerns and
enlist to save the motherland. The plot is pretty simple and does not
have a ton to it other than suggesting workers of the world should
unite. There are some hints of the soviet montage style in some of
the editing but this is a much more standard film in it's execution.
3/5
