If you loved Ivan the Terrible, Part II: The Boyars' Plot, try Battleship Potemkin
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Sergei Eisenstein, and they both carry the epic, foreign gem mood tags, and they sit in Drama / History territory. If that's the register that drew you to Ivan the Terrible, Part II: The Boyars' Plot, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Battleship Potemkin is
Odessa, summer, boots on stone stairs. A battleship in harbor, sailors riot, townspeople march. Eisenstein grounds his montage in revolutionary fervor.
