Dear Sophie -
The great Russian Filmmaker SERGEI EISENSTEIN masterfully crafted montage sequences inventing a new cinematic language.
We saw a screening of his 1925 silent masterpiece "The Battleship Potemkin" on a rooftop in Athens with Russian and Greek subtitles. (You'll have to screen it with English sometime!)
Sadly he had his ass kicked by Hollywood. He was probably too willful, too smart.
With love,
Mom
