Lenin & cinema

[Michael Denner]

Dear SEELANGers!

So, every book on Russian cinema has somewhere, on the overleaf or the
back cover or in the first paragraph, a quote from Lenin about cinema
being the most important of all arts. In all the books I have on Russian
cinema (in Russian and in English), there's not a single citation for
that quote. I'm beginning to think it apocryphal. 

 

I don't have one of those nifty quote reference books that some of my
colleagues have (I need to get one) - are they any help with this
question? 

 

Best,

mad
