Russian Film

Directors of silent Russia film such as Sergei Eisenstein and Dziga Vertov employed revolutionary montage techniques that continue to impact upon film today. While there's not a huge amount of Soviet sound cinema available on DVD, the quality more than makes up for the lack of quantity. Andrei Tarkovsky's intense ventures into lyrical mysticism are amongst the finest films ever made and a worthy successor has been found in Alexander Sokurov.
