Summary |
"This is the first systematic study of the unfinished films of the director Sergei Eisenstein. Working from the archival remnants of several of the director's most fascinating unrealized projects, this book shows the filmmaker in a constant state of process, open to working toward impossible, and sometimes utopian, ends. It also tells the story of a canonical artist negotiating the political labyrinths of Stalinist Russia, the economic pitfalls of Hollywood, and the technological shifts of early cinema"-- Provided by publisher |
