Cinema is my life. Memories of the greatest director

Sergei Eisenstein (1898-1948) is not in vain called the “Leonardo da Vinci” cinema-he was not only a film, but also a theater director, screenwriter, an excellent drawingman and an outstanding teacher, was engaged in the theory of art. The name of the great director is known throughout the world, and his immortal masterpieces - “The battleship“ Potemkin ”,“ Alexander Nevsky ”,“ Ivan the Terrible ”and others - are still used in the institutions of cinema as textbooks on directing and installation. Alfred Hitchcock and Francis Ford Coppola called themselves the students and followers of Eisenstein, in their films using the methods invented by the Russian director, who became one of the most noticeable cultural figures of the 20th century. The value of these memories is not that certain events are captured on their pages.
