Storm Over Asia (1928)

In 1918 a young and simple Mongol herdsman and trapper is cheated out of a valuable fox fur by a European capitalist fur trader. Ostracized from the trading post, he escapes to the hills after brawling with the trader who cheated him. In 1920 he becomes a Soviet partisan, and helps the partisans fight for the Soviets against the occupying British army. However he is captured by the British when they try to requisition cattle from the herdsmen at the same time as the commandant meets with a reincarnated Grand Lama. After the trapper is shot, the army discovers an amulet that suggests he is a direct descendant of Genghis Khan. They find him still alive, so the army restores his health and plans to use him as the head of a puppet regime. The trapper is thus thrust into prominence as he is placed in charge of the puppet government. By the end, however, the "puppet" turns against his masters in an outburst of fury.

Action! Drama! Propaganda! Ethnography! Pudovkin's film is respectful towards the Mongolians, and he keeps things exciting with a lot of iconic imagery and radical, dynamic editing. Like a lot of Soviet cinema, it has an epic, important heft to it. The story is a little hard to follow sometimes, and there are some sluggish parts, but at its finest moments this is a pretty kickass movie.

I watched this without reviewing, apparently, and now I don't remember anything about it. So it must be just OK. Will have to find and watch again some other time. . .

Vsevolod Pudovkin's Storm Over Asia is set in the late 1910s to the late 1920s in the british occupied Mongolia (In real life it was the russians) where we follow the young mongol boy Bair. The whole story starts in 1918 where many mongols have gathered in a pawn shop to sell their fur for money to by food. But when Bair gets underpaid, by the greedy capitalist pawn owner, a revolt starts and Bair has to runaway. Two years later, he have joined the partisan movement during the russian revolution which also spreed as far as Mongolia. But he's soon taken prison by the british, who discovers a neck less around his neck, and inside of that they find a piece of paper with old mongolian hand writing where it stand that Bair is a descendant of the great Genghis Khan, and decides to use him as a puppet. Storm Over Asia is a well made silence film, with the perfect amount of anger. But the religious sermonizes can it be to much of. But it's a realistic and heart breaking story. Thumbs up.

Yay, a Soviet silent movie with a Mongolian hero! If you can deal with the propagandistic premise - naive nomad is mistaken for the heir of Genghs Khan, is tempted by evil Western colonialists, and finally turns into a revolutionary hero - this is an enjoyable silent with lots of visual tidbits and cliches turned upside down.

This is one of the most visually stunning films of the silent era. It is a work of art. The acting is very well done, it is a powerful and moving story that is unforgettable and haunting. Way ahead of it's time, some of the camera techniques are amazing. Excellent production, moving score.
