What is Kuleshov? 

for example lets say you have one shot of a guy just sitting on a bench looking into the distance, but you don't know what he is looking at, could be anything, it then skips to a shot of two people on a bike, it gives you the feeling he is looking at them, that are riding the bikes. Or you could go to a shot of kids in a park playing, it also gives you the feeling that he is looking at them and it helps you think of what kind of personality he has.

I will show a short clip here of Alfred Hitchcock explaining it, in the easiest way to understand that I think is possible. Click here.
