Montage Editing Techniques

Summarize one of Pudovkin's techniques outlined in this video essay that interests you. How does it contribute to the storytelling in the modern movie clip that the narrator talks about? Why do you find this interesting?
Parallelism contributes to the storytelling in the modern movie clip by placing an obvious symbolism or allowing time to flow naturally for the audience. This technique can create a sense of correlation between the shots in a more elegant way. I find this very interesting because these shots successfully achieve similar shots in different time periods in different locations yet they still flow nicely together due to the visual similarity or audio similarity. Parallelism is also interesting because the two different shots can contain a suggestion for future events in a plot.
