Vsevolod Illarionovich Pudovkin (Russian: ???????? ???????????? ????????, IPA: ['fs?ev?l?t ?l?r??'on?v??t?? p?'dofk??n]; 16 February 1893 – 30 June 1953) was a Russian and Soviet film director, screenwriter and actor who developed influential theories of montage.
Pudovkin's masterpieces are often contrasted with those of his contemporary Sergei Eisenstein, but whereas Eisenstein utilized montage to glorify the power of the masses, Pudovkin preferred to concentrate on the courage and resilience of individuals.
He was granted the title of People's Artist of the USSR in 1948.
