Ivan the Terrible (BFI Film Classics) – Yuri Tsivian

The best bit of this monograph was the discussion of Ivan's beard. This movie is clearly THE great facial hair movie, so it's nice to see it acknowledged. Otherwise, I'd rate it as a lesser entry in the BFI series, but it has some interesting stuff about Eisenstein's working methods.
