Pudovkin?

Great quote in Film Language about filmmaker Pudovkin (whom I don't know, but now probably should):

"The isolated shot is not even a small fragment of cinema; it is only raw material, a fragment of the real world. Only by montage can one pass from photography to cinema, from slavish copy to art. Broadly defined, montage is quite simply inseparable from the composition of the work itself." (p. 32)
