Eisenstein created a "Moving Frieze". It is high relief sculpture in motion. Interestingly enough one Boris Godunov was presented in that style at the Met (with Jerome Hines who had the size {6'8"} and dedication to carry it off). It was one of the most stunning things I have ever seen on an opera stage.I thought the style in the movie was perfect to the subject matter.
Re: Victor's point, Part II was delayed for some time by Stalin's fierce opposition. By this time Eisenstein realized that the revolution had not turned out as he had hoped and that was part of the point of his film. The people trusted Ivan and Ivan failed them. "Uncle Joe" got the point and for a bit considered a Gulag for the director (discovered in the early 1990s when we had some access to KGB fles). Stalin was upset because Eisenstein was obliquely saying that the people also trusted the revolution and the revolution failed them. Yeltsin and Putin have simply repeated the pattern.
