Nevsky/Stalin

[Henry]

Begs the question: would a film currently glorifying the USA be inherently
pro-Bush.  Sure it would.  But it's hero wouldn't necessarily represent the
Bush-baby himself.  Ivan the Terrible (the Awesome) ruthlessly united the
Russian states, which makes him a more obvious Stalin.

And that's a fine opinion, just not one shared by the people who put  
on and reviewed the recent "Shadow of Stalin" series in LA.

I disagree with that. If we speak allegorically, the film glorifies  
the might of Soviet arms, the unity of Russian people when under  
threat, and other patriotic stuff. It isn't a panegiric to Stalin.
