A really surprising film. Let me start 1st by saying the musical score is fantastic.  The movie was very inspiring and breath taking. Its scope was worldwide. I didn't know for sure what I was getting when I ordered the movie but I was pleasantly surprised by the content of the film. Its also interesting because it was made while Stalin was still alive in 1953 so you see a real Marxist Leninist film unlike some of the late Soviet films. This film doesn't beat around the bush. It it pro working class,pro Socialist,and and does a great job at it.
