Tsar Ivan Vasilevich Groznyy

1915 · 58 mins

This film was a true peculiarity, a filmed version of the great Feodor Chaliapin in one of his most famous roles; the fact that it was a silent film, with title cards, meant that audiences could only appreciate his acting. Another curiosity is that the film also included a minor role enacted by Richard Boleslavsky, who in 1932 directed “Rasputin and the Empress.”(9)

Director: Aleksandr Ivanov-Gai

Cast: Richard Boleslawski, Feodor Chaliapin Sr., N. Saltikov, Boris Sushkevich, Mikhail Zharov
