October reflects a general attempt in Russia to sustain the frenzy and dynamism of revolutionary fervour. This attempt increased in scale and ambition as they pushed it further, resulting in the theatricalisation of life.

It is important to remember that the film does not represent what actually happened during the 1917 Revolution, but is rather an adaptation.
