• Early Russian Cinema, 1908-1919, 12 hrs, (10 videotapes, 45-104 min. each) --This ten-part video anthology considers the early thematic, cultural, political, and artistic developments of Russian cinema. The films span the time from the first Russian dramatic production in 1908 to the end of the era in 1919.
  1. Beginnings (45 min): Actualities made by foreign companies, such as Pathe's A Fish Factory in Astrakhan, stimulated a demand for home-produced films which was answered by the enterprising Drankov. His Sten'ka Razin (1980), enjoyed immense success as the first Russian dramatic film.
  2. Folklore and Legend (55 min): 4 films that chart the emergence of Russian cinema's leading producer, Aleksandr Khanzhonkov, and the pioneer director Vasilii Goncharov. Drama in a Gypsy Camp (1908) and the unleashed Brigand Brothers are lively folklore subjects - the latter includes a superb early performance by Mozzhukhin - while A 16th Century Russian Wedding (1909) shows the influence of history painting and Rusalka (1910) draws on French-style special effects to realize Pushkin's poetic legend.
  3. Starewicz's Fantasies (58 min): Starewicz is now regarded as one of the pioneers of puppet animation. But while it was his insect fables like The Dragonfly and the Ant (1913) that brought him early fame - Tsar Nikolai was an admirer - a ribald Gogol adaptation in the same year, Christmas Eve, launched him on an equally original feature career in fantasy subjects. He also contributed strongly to the war effort, with a string of propoganda shorts typified by The Lily of Belgium.
  4. Provincial Variations (55 min): Although the early Russian cinema industry was based mainly in Moscow, provincial film-making contributed some striking novelties. Among these were The Latvian Wedding Day (1912), providing an invaluable record of traditional Jewish costumes, and the sensational blackmail melodrama Merchant Bashkirov's Daughter (1913), set on the Volga.
  5. Chardynin's Pushkin (45 min): The former touring actor-manager made an early name for himself and gave Russian cinema a distinctly cultured orientation - with Pushkin adaptations like The Queen of Spades (1910) and The House in Koloma (1913). In the latter, Chardynin's protege Mozzhukhin played both a dashing officer and a farcical cook in drag.
  6. Class Distinctions (95 min): Despite strict censorship intended to prevent any inflammatory material reaching the screen, many early Russian films achieved a remarkably candid portrayal of social conditions. Goncharov's The Peasants' Lot (1912) portrayed the hardship of rural life, while an early film by Bauer, Silent Witnesses (1914) dealt frankly with servants' views of their masters in a Moscow mansion.
  7. Evgenii Bauer (95 min): Bauer is the major discovery from early Russian cinema. In a mere 5 prolific years, he achieved mastery in several genres, including the social melodrama of A Child of the Big City (1913), erotic comedy like The 1002nd Ruse (1915) and the psychological melodrama of Daydreams (1915). Admired by his contemporaries, he raised Russian cinema to an unparalleled artistic level before his early death in 1917.
  8. Iakov Protazonov (104 min): Protazonov, together with Bauer the leading director of Russian cinema, did not shrink from controversy in either his highly successful pre or post-1917 careers. The Departure of a Great Old Man (1912), about the last day of Tolstoi, provoked legal action by the outraged family. The Queen of Spades (1916) starred Mozzhukhin in one of his most compelling roles as Pushkin's haunted hero.
  9. High Society (100 min): A panorama of Russian cinema's social impact at the height of its ambition, Antosha Ruined by a Corset (1916) is a racy, knowing urban comedy by Russia's leading screen comedian, Anton Fertner. A Life for a Life (1916) marked the pinnacle of Bauer's ambition to equal lavish foreign production standards. And The Funeral of Vera Kholodnaia recorded the vast public response to the early death of Russia's greatest star in 1919.
  10. The End of an Era (72 min): Between the February and October revolutions in 1917, Russian cinema reflected urgent new themes as in The Revolutionary. But Bauer also continued his vein of tragic melodrama in what was to be his last film, For Luck, designed by and featuring as an actor the young Kuleshov. A poignant fragment, Behind the Screen shows the stars Mozzhukhin and Lisenko on the eve of their departure into exile.
