In 1920, there was a reenactment of the 1917 Storming of the Winter Palace on the third anniversary of the event. It was this reenactment which provided the inspiration for the scenes in Sergei Eisenstein's film October: Ten Days That Shook the World. Likewise, mass pageants were used to commemorate civic events like 150th anniversary of the founding of St Louis, held in 1914.
