Abstract

Cinema is a cultural phenomenon. As a synthetic art, it is connected with fine arts, architecture, sculpture, as well as music, thus representing a combination of “spirit of plasticity” and “spirit of music,” the Apollonian and the Dionysian. The image of cinema is born through connection of shots. Eisenstein introduced a concept of “sound film” of the synthetic show uniting acting, sound, a visual image, patterns of thoughts and situations. According to S. Eisenstein, the shot is an assembly cutting complex, with design and composition that make it akin to plastic art. Russian cinema is the heir of culture of the Silver age. The comparative analysis of conception of image by S. Eisenstein and P. Florensky, and the analysis of cultural prerequisites of cinema and communications of cinema with other art forms are carried out to support this topic.
