Coming Soon To The EADJ Crappinema: "Frankenhood"


Sergei's Eisenstein's "Battleship Potemkin," or simply "Potemkin," has been a landmark of cinema since its release in 1924. Eisenstein pioneered a dynamic, virile and consciously expressionistic style of editing, now known as montage, that according to many reinvented cinema and defined it as autonomous art. Through juxtaposition, rhythm of cuts and the sheer scale of the Russian uprising depicted, "Potemkin" stands as a monument of technical and artistic achievement in film.

"Frankenhood" is probably not "Potemkin."
