A must read for all filmmakers, The basis of all great films
10 Nov 1997
Format:Paperback
Eisenstein thoughts on montage and how the mind interpets film is invaluable when creating films of one's own. Read the book 3 times to learn it for the first.

Tough but interesting...
13 Nov 2000
Format:Paperback
Though no book will make you a filmmaker, some will help you refine your vision. This book, for me, added some poetry and texture to the imagery already in my mind. Pretty much the only thing that will improve your film skills, is making them.

THIS BOOK WILL NOT IMPROVE YOUR FILMS!
28 Feb 2000
Format:Paperback
If you want to improve your own films, this book will not help you (I doubt that any book would). If you can actually figure out what Eisenstien is trying to say (which would probably take 3 readings, but who has the time?) you will find only obscure and vague theories. They are interesting in what they reveal about Eisenstein and his films, but they will not help you as a filmmaker!
