The Battleship Potemkin

If you enjoy watching old war propaganda movies that are in black and white, Russian, and have no speaking involved, watch The Battleship Potemkin. If you don't enjoy those things and you watch it anyways, it might be the most boring two hours you will have spent in your life. I don't really understand what happened because it was divided into about six parts. I know that the crew of the ship took it over in the first part because they didn't want to eat their soup and their rebel leader guy died during the battle. They left his body on the nearest shore where the town people found him with a note that said 'he was killed for a bowl of soup' which rallied them up and they decided the sailors were right. And then I think I got bored and started trying to play tennis on my dad's phone...it was a very difficult game. Next time I looked up the peasants were all being killed by random people who turned out to be the Cossacks. I have no idea what happened next or why there was another random boat or why the sailors suddenly started being all happy and waving at each other and throwing their hats in the air. It was a very confusing movie...

Oh, and I have a new picture too
