Very enjoyable


This is basically part two and it was really strong. More good performances from everyone, and Nikolay Cherkasov especially really shined in this. He was outstanding. Did not expect musical numbers in this, which were odd and off putting, since I don't like musicals at all, however they weren't too many.

The costumes were elaborate, however I think it went with the times.

All in all, learning more about Ivan the Terrible was fascinating, and Sergei Eisenstein did a fabulous job in telling this story.
