What happens
Glumov's Diary (Russian: Дневник Глумова, romanized: Dnevnik Glumova) is a 1923 Soviet silent trick film, which was the first film directed by Sergei Eisenstein. It was conceived as a part of the theatre production of Alexander Ostrovsky’s 1868 comedy Enough Stupidity in Every Wise Man (Na vsyakovo mudretsa dovolno prostoty) and it marks Eisenstein's transition from theatre stage director to film director.
