Battleship<\/strong> is a concept that comes from the verb armor<\/strong>, whose first meaning mentioned in the dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy<\/strong> (RAE<\/strong>) refers to conferring a coating to a boat or a construction<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"Battleship\"A battleship is called, by extension, a oversized boat<\/strong> that has a armor<\/strong> and that is used for war missions. Battleships, due to their weapons and characteristics, were the most important ships in a fleet of war<\/strong>, surpassing the destroyers<\/strong> and the cruise ships<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Since the end of XIX century<\/strong> until the development of the Second World War<\/strong>, the battleships were key in the military confrontations since they allowed to establish the supremacy in the sea battles. However, the ever-increasing range of missiles and aerial development caused these ships to lose prominence.<\/p>\n

It is important to mention, however, that battleships were many times affected<\/strong> for boats of smaller size and cost. Therefore, throughout the story<\/strong>, received various criticisms.<\/p>\n

One of the most famous battleships was the HMS Dreadnought<\/strong>, which belonged to the UK. He began his duties in 1906<\/strong> and it was a technological revolution for its features<\/strong>. Thirteen years later he was discharged and finally, in 1923<\/strong>, scrapped.<\/p>\n

Another transcendent battleship was the Potemkin<\/strong>, of the Russian fleet, launched in 1904<\/strong>. On 1905<\/strong>, the crew rebelled against the officers in the framework of the revolution<\/strong>. This event came to movie theater<\/strong> via Sergei Eisenstein<\/strong>, director of a silent film that he titled \"The battleship Potemkin\"<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

In 1925 it was when the premiere of this feature film took place, which has become not only a classic of cinema but also one of the best films of all time. It is because of its ability to tell the story and the tragedy that it carries intrinsically without the need for dialogue and also because of the montage of which it was the result.<\/p>\n

Some curiosities that exist regarding this production are the following:
-Undoubtedly, this film was used as propaganda for the communist regime, insofar as it establishes the need of the ordinary citizen to try to end the chains that kill, oppress, asphyxiate him ...
-One of the most covered scenes, represented and honored in all of history is one of his that responds to the name of \u201cThe Odessa staircase\u201d. It comes to reflect the moment when the soldiers charge savagely against the citizens, including a mother and her baby. Thus we have been able to see the proposal made by directors of the stature of Woody Allen or Francis Ford Coppola in their own feature films such as \"Bananas\" or \"The Godfather\" respectively.
-For years it was banned in certain countries due to its revolutionary character. This would be the case, for example, of Germany, Spain or Great Britain.
-The well-known British pop group Pet Shop Boys composed in 2004 an audio track for the film, to make it more current. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
