a| Kuleshov, Lev,
e| director.
a| Kuleshov and screenwriter Kurs built the film's plot around real facts of American writer O'Henry, whom they called the 'great consoler' of American common people. They intertwined his life story with two of his novellas: reality was transformed by beautiful fantasies, but as a result of that comparison it looked all the more cruel. One of the first sound films by the Soviet film classics, it still combines the 'old' montage cinematography with sound conditions, which presented an uneasy match. "The Great Consoler" is often called Lev Kuleshov's 'swan song'. On-going criticism and permanent accusations of formalistm prompted a new path in the director's life, that of teaching to which he devoted the greater part of his creative career afterwords.
