I am unable to just understand one bit of SVD.
Given A=USV
where U is the eigenvectors of the correlation matrix between the entries S is the eigenvalue matrix and V the transpose of eigenvectors of correlation matrix between the features.



In the case of movie examples(from here at 9:52 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5mlg91as1c&t=616s) U represents the relation of users to categories while V of movies to categories. How are they both expressed in the same basis i.e the same formulation of categories? If U comes from the covariance matrix of the users shouldn't it represent the principal direction of users?



While V represent the principal direction of movies? A user is written as a linear combination of a different user basis than the movie basis. I am not getting how they are in the exact same basis.



I understand that if I write every movie as a linear combination of some categories and users as a linear combination of their affinity to those same categories then we just do a dot product. But here the basis is different as it is of two different covariance matrices. What am I missing?
