Ivan the Terrible, Part II: The Boyars' Plot

One day, Soviet film-maker Sergei Eisenstein was asked by Josef Stalin to make a three-part movie about Russian Czar Ivan Grozny. This is the second part of the movie. Despite Eisenstein's efforts to use forbidden experimental filming techniques, the producers didn't like how they looked in the first two parts. This was more noticeable in this part than in the first part. As it was, this second part was not shown until after both Eisenstein and Stalin died, and the Soviet government changed its mind about it after that. It is in this part that Ivan the Terrible tries to consolidate his power by setting up a private army. His political rivals, the Russian boyars, plan to kill him.
