These three films and four others are showing at Facets Cinematheque this week, along with a film Barnet acted in (Lev Kuleshov's 1924 knockabout farce The Extraordinary Adventures of Mr. This was a time when the art form was extremely new, but audiences were already going nuts for stars. Most film narratives were analogous to silently filmed plays; each scene took place in front of a stationary camera, which was strategically placed to view the entire set, without any cutting or variation. The Kuleshov effect is a film editing technique that was recognised and demonstrated by Russian filmmaker Lev Kuleshov between 1910-1920 during his montage experiments. Among aficionados of early silent films, Lev Kuleshov, the Soviet film director, is known for his use of editing to evoke different emotions. In 1918 he conducted his famous experiment (below) using a single shot of the silent film actor Ivan Mozzhukhin's face looking at something off-camera. The Kuleshov effect is one of the great discoveries in the history of cinema, Lev Kuleshov a Soviet film maker was one of the first to dissect and analyze the emotion effect of visual montage and juxtaposition.

In the early 20th century, Russian filmmaker and theorist Lev Kuleshov discovered that a single shot of an actor with an ambiguous expression on his face could convey a multitude of very distinct meanings in the mind of the viewer, depending on the nature of the shot immediately preceding it. In the 1910s and 1920s, Lev Kuleshov was a famous Russian filmmaker curious about how audiences responded to film. Film language, as it would later be termed, had very little in the way of grammar, most Eisenstein's contemporary soviet theorist, Lev Kuleshov applied this precept to character development.
