The collaboration between the movie's director Ermlers and main actor Nikitin has been compared to oil and water. Nikitin was from an aristocratic background with an excellent education, and he was a confirmed admirer of Stanislavsky's Method. Ermler was a believer in Vsevolod Meyerhold's more external approach to performance and campaigned for slogans like "No feelings!" "No transformations!" "Down with Stanislavsky! "Long live Meyerhold!". In all, the two artists made four films together and by the end of shooting Oblomok Imperii, the two could no longer tolerate each other and never worked together again.
