虽然《波将金》的宣传力度更大,但至少在国外,艾森斯坦的下一部伟大作品《十月》在国内获得了巨大的成功,而且作为一种将10月份的事件重新安排几十年的方式是有价值的。学者承认影片的不准确和许可。例如,费格斯认为,10月是艾森斯坦才华横溢但在很大程度上是虚构的宣传影片。罗森斯通也承认电影的最初影响和持久影响。10月份已经成为了10月份最著名、最持久的记录之一,众所周知,似乎没有夸张的说法,更多的人可能从电影中了解到布尔什维克革命,而不是其他任何单一来源。随着10月对俄罗斯公众的影响更大,无论是作为一部电影,还是作为宣传,重要的是要考虑俄罗斯当时的情况以及它如何影响电影的创作和支持。俄罗斯农民占总人口的80%,在很大程度上是敌对的,绝大多数是文盲,他们说的语言超过一百种不同的语言。此外,作为一个群体的农民在很大程度上是政治上的无知,需要的是政府领导人对他们的了解。农民们倾向于天真地相信每一个印刷的字,因此可以从各种各样的来源说服他们。在小组中缺乏词汇,以及由布尔什维克政权派来的发言者之间的误解,使他们进一步加深了沟通问题。
澳洲公民权利学论文代写:《波将金》
While the power of Potemkin as propaganda was far more convincing, at least initially, abroad, Eisenstein’s next great work, October, enjoyed tremendous success at home and was valuable as a way of reframing the October events for decades. Scholar recognise the inaccuracies and license of the film. Figes, for example, contends October is Eisenstein’s brilliant but largely fictional propaganda film. Rosenstone also acknowledges both the initial impact and lasting influence of the film. October has become and remains one of the best known and most enduring accounts of October so well known that it seems no exaggeration to suggest that more people have probably learned about the Bolshevik Revolution from the film than from any other single source. As October had a much stronger impact on the Russian public, both as a movie and as propaganda, it is important to consider the situation in Russia at the time and how it influenced the film’s creation and support. The Russian peasantry, accounting for eighty percent of the population, was largely hostile and overwhelmingly illiterate speaking more than a hundred different languages. In addition, peasants as a group were largely politically ignorant, and needed, it was felt by government leaders, to be properly informed. Peasants were inclined to believe naively in every printed word, and therefore open to persuasion from a variety of sources. Lack of vocabulary amongst the group and misunderstandings with speakers sent by the Bolshevik regime to educate them further compounded the communication problem.
