The first film was made during UsefulNotes/WorldWarII, and had the support of UsefulNotes/JosefStalin, whose CultOfPersonality invoked Ivan. Eisenstein conceived of the film as a trilogy, yet only two parts were finished, with Part III being cancelled in mid-production because Stalin was very critical of Part II, followed by Eisenstein's death a brief while later. Part I released in 1944 earned the director the Stalin Prize (Soviet Nobel Prize-cum-Oscar) and was well received internationally. The second part, shot back-to-back with the first one, was completed in 1946. However it was shelved, and it was released only in 1958 long after Eisenstein's and Stalin's death. Part II became especially famous for its color sequence (shot on Agfacolor film stock captured by Red Army troops in UsefulNotes/NaziGermany).

* ProtagonistJourneyToVillain: Ivan's slow journey from heroic young king to bitter tyrant is the core of the story, and infamously a reason for Stalin's poor reception to Part II. Stalin related entirely too hard to Ivan Groznyy, and didn't like the implications for his ''own'' tyrannical rule.

* HeWhoFightsMonsters: While fighting against insidious, immoral, and corrupt boyars, the tsar slowly descends into brutality, paranoia and outright madness. Most notably in Part II, Ivan IV gives a MotiveRant as to why he hates the boyars, noting that as a child they separated him from his mother. At the end of that, Ivan IV kills Vladmir in front of his mother Efrosinia. Film historians, noting the subtext and the Freudian themes in the film, suggest that this was part of the film's critique. [[FullCircleRevolution Ivan IV is a populist monarch who appeals to the people rather than the nobleman, but he ends up becoming the tyrant he had opposed to start with]], noting that this was part of Eisenstein's SelfDeprecation on the entire Soviet generation.
