I remember that scene in The Untouchables......hmmm, wonder if "The Kiss of Death" was a catalyst for his style. I couldn't believe Richard Widmark ACTUALLY pushed Mildred Dunnock down that flight of stairs! And she was in a wheelchair, fcol! *~*

If you mean did Eisenstein learn from it, the answer is no. Eisenstein began making films in the silent era. Battleship Potemkin was made in 1925, Kiss of Death in 1947.
