Конец Санкт-Петербурга
A peasant boy comes to the city for work, informs on a strike leader without understanding what he has done, and is sent to the front for it. Pudovkin cuts the stock exchange, where prices rise with the war, against the trenches where the boy is paying for them.
Pudovkin's anniversary picture, the same events as October carried by one man. Watch how often the city's statues get the reaction shot.
