About The Backlog!
One Kuleshov film that might be of great interest to scholars is The Breakthrough (Proryv, 1930). It was made in 48 hours. Naturally, such an unusual work did not stay in cinemas for a long time.
Directed by Lev Kuleshov, The Backlog! leans on a strong ensemble — Boris Barnet, Andrei Gorchilin, Porfiri Podobed — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1930.
