Don't get me wrong, I'm not some super evil communist planning to take over the world... But wow.

I saw excerpts of a Stalin propaganda film about the October Revolution. The guys playing Lenin and Stalin looked nearly identical to the real people.

The actors playing the peasants did an excellent job as well. However, some sets we're bland and lacking in personality (i.e. Lenins HQ, which doesn't have many pieces of furniture, etc.)

Finally, Trotsky looks like Colonel Sanders. A communist Colonel Sanders.
