ABSTRACT
Left film-makers must themselves expose the detective film and the comedy in order to repudiate them.
In Moscow they are doing so. 'Goskino has commissioned Kuleshov . . .'
But in Leningrad? I shall confine myself to a single enquiry:
'Kinosever: production. First, an Eccentric
comedy, directed by N. Petro v . . .' If I add that this very same N. Petrov makes
a living as a very sharp dealer in the principles of Eccentrism and Leftism in theatre, I can leave the reader to draw his own conclusions from this undoubtedly controversial article.
