This article is about a movie made to show the atrocities of Stalin’s rule in Russia. The movie is meant to show how Stalin and Hitler were both equally ruthless killers of their own people. The movie fails to present the subject matter in a respectful way, falling far from showing how truly horrible it was to live in Russia during this time. This is an instance where film is not a effective way to show people the horrific events because in the process they belittled it. There should never be an agenda when trying to portray a historical event that caused death and pain to millions of people.
