(Don't forget Stalin signed a deal with Hitler that also included the division of Poland that sparked the war in September 1939. Hopefully we'll be able to see this important film soon in America.

It is a shame such a man was ever thought fit for negotiating by the Allies during WWII. The evils of communism stem from such perverted individuals who held the world at ransom. Is Stalin any different from the Fuhrer?
