This document discusses the concept of "attractions" in cinema from several perspectives across different time periods from 1917 to 1930. It defines attractions as aggressive or sensual/psychological aspects of theater that produce calculated emotional shocks in spectators. The "Montage of Attractions" manifesto from 1923 describes attractions as elements that subject spectators to impacts to perceive the ultimate ideological conclusion. Later discussions focus on how attractions can produce useful class-conditioned reflections aligned with social principles rather than just exciting unconditioned reflexes. The concept evolves to see attractions as totally presented facts or actions combined to condense spectator emotion in a specific ideological direction.
