This is wrong. Putin was the partner of the oligarchs?(then the documentary contradicts itself and says he left because he was jealous of thier power?) I wonder how they're going to spin why he jailed them, and put the money back in the hands of the people. They get the philosophy of Berezovsky??...he's a criminal, why interview him?
Sobchak's widow was only complimentary of him, but the voiceover afterward demonizes him. There was no direct tie to Spag. Who wrot this?
The breakup of the USSR was a geopolitical catastrophe. Brezhnev was to blame, for being unamenable to reform, and rigid relapse into Stalinist reaction that was anachronistic to the social and economic realities of the 70s and early 80s in the USSR.
They needed a leader like Deng Xiaoping, but as well as economic reforms to improve people's lives, social reforms to gradually increase civil liberties and intellectual freedoms.
The producers of this should be ashamed and join a monastery in penance. Isn't the subject a bit too serious for showing old photos with spooky music and saying, "Ooh Putin's shady and dangerous. Be afraid." Sure your British audience is sure sore over dependence on Russian government-owned oil, but it's still pathetic to play into those feelings the same way you can provide catharsis with a horror film. Congrats. You show as much reality as A Nightmare on Elm Street.
@schkum Well, this is a WESTERN film about Russia so don't be surprised. If Putin was more democratic and more subservient to the West, then he'd be portrayed as a hero of change. I've watched a LOT of British/American films on Russia (my favorite subject!) and they all, more or less, portray Russia in a negative way.
Imagine if Putin got rid of the Russian military, American/British politicians would be creaming their pants.
@RussianSoviet5445 You know that Russian goverment won't tell u whats happening, they lie to your own people, u must be retard if u cant understand it. I feel sorry for you. One day u will backstabbed by your own country. Better live here in Europe with nice people and goverment than there with nice people, low money, ugly cityies, dumb goverment, wrong history lessons. Have fun
I like Puitin.

It's all academic now, though.
