- Synopsis:
- Dating from 1927 Esfir Shub's 'The Fall of the Romanov Dynasty' documentary uses archive footage from the Romanov tercentenary in 1913 to the Bolshevik takeover four years on. Here truth really is fashioned into myth. The musical score consists of a medley of Russian favourites, pounded out on an electric piano, making for a rather limited, though not inappropriate, soundtrack.
