Engineer Prite's
Project (1918)
Directed by Lev
Kuleshov this film stars N. Gardy, Yelena Komarova and Boris
Kuleshov. Big oil is not happy about the prospect of a rival by way
of burning peat for energy.
Notable for being the
first application of Kuleshov's montage theory which would become a
corner stone for early Soviet cinema this film is not overly
impressive. The plot is pretty dry and simplistic which does not
really get the viewer emotionally involved. Decently made for a piece
of the period but only one for film historians in my opinion.
3/5
