The Battleship Potemkin was directed in 1925 by Sergei M. Eisenstein. It is a silent film that stirred up a lot of emotion in the Soviet Union, Russia. It takes place in 1905 in the Soviet Union, it begin on the famous battleship called Potemkin. On the battleship, the crews man are forced to eat rotten meat covered with maggots, because of this the crew rebels against the oppressive officers. In return the head crews man is shot and killed, as they over take the officers and return to the dock yard, where people from all over come to mourn for the brave leader. As the story turns, more emotion is poured into the film. Sergei truly created a master piece because of the powerful filming styles he used.
