 ate Begin: 2012-05-27\nEvent Date End: 2012-05-27\n\nDuring World War II\,
  Eisenstein was granted permission to make a trilogy of films on the life 
 of Ivan the Terrible who ruled Russia from 1533 to 1584. Soviet ideology o
 f the period saw Ivan as a predecessor of Stalin\, as a ruler who strength
 ened and expanded the Russian state. Accordingly\, Part One depicts the yo
 ung tsar as a heroic and progressive figure but one surrounded by enemies\
 , both within Russia and abroad. Part Two illustrates Ivan's ruthless camp
 aign to eliminate his internal enemies. Already demonstrating his penchant
  for baroque visual imagery in Part One\, Eisenstein depicts the Ivan of P
 art Two even more illustratively as he descends into madness. With shots t
 hat emphasize the graphic qualities of the cinematic image\, with lines an
 d curves emphasized as much as volume and depth\, Ivan the Terrible has ev
 en been compared to animation\; Ivan's elaborate silhouette as a hunched\,
  bearded figure becomes an important part of his characterization.\n\nEise
 nstein may have been emboldened by the government's approval of Part One\,
  but Part Two\, easily taken for an implicit critique of Stalin\, was bann
 ed. Eisenstein died shortly thereafter\, having filmed only a few scenes f
 or Part Three.\n\nStart time: 5pm
