Khrushchev's autobiography is a great look at Stalin in his final years. Stalin also enjoyed making Khrushchev dance at these events, and there were a few occasions where officials lost their temper with Stalin but managed to avoid any consequences for whatever reason

Look at him, lying there in a pool of his own indignity

That whole movie is awesome. I would've never thought of Steve Buscemi as Kruschev but he was incredible.

Yeah an good dark comedy .

I found that movie really boring. I kept waiting for a good joke. Fell flat to me but glad someone enjoyed it. I did really wanna like it

If you want to know about Hitler's personal life and routine read Inside the Third Reich by Albert Speer. I couldn't put it down, one of the most fascinating books I have ever read.

That would be an interesting take.

A day in Hitler's life is mostly shouting at people and looking for Fegelein.

The part with the scapegoat is how western historians would interpret it... In reality Ezhov was the crazy one... Stalin would not ever want to just kill people randomly, who did nothing... If so, then counterrevolutionaries, murderers, rapists etc... But Ezhov had a fetish shooting people by himself... so it was Ezhov who was the psychopath... and yes there were purges in the party, but thats a different story

@@mikhailalmaz Are You certain of that? Because I read of a story that during the performance of 'The Swan Lake' when there was an intermission, Staling went to the nearby NKVD prison, shot or ordered five random prisoners to be shot, then returned for the next act of the ballet.

He loved Westerns

most dictators are film buffs. Hitler was a fan of Charlie Chaplin till he made the great dictator and even offered a bounty equivalent of $10,000 at the time if Clark gable was sucessfully captured alive if he was shot down he also secretly loved to draw Disney characters on his downtime. Kim Jong ill had south Korean actors actresses and directors kidnapped to do movies for him his son had a collection of 10000 DVD movies. Saddam Hussein plunged $30 million of government money into the production of an epic war movie starring British acting legend Oliver Reed. The film was called Clash of Loyalties, it was made in 1983 Colonel Gaddafi set up a state-funded channel that constantly replayed his favourite film: The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai ' Mussolini in the 1930s approched columbia pictures with a milion dollars to do a biopic about him and his rise to power.

Stalin loved John Wayne movies, and then tried to get the Duke assassinated, but Stalin died before it could be carried out. Khrushchev, another John Wayne fan, saw to it that the order was cancelled.

Great idea

Also the Katdyn incident with Vasily Blohkin.

But after the japonese embassy protest against german intervention, they stop supporting China, preffering to stay with Japan, mostly because at the time seems that Japan would win the sino-japonese war.

Interesting fact: Both Khrushchev and Brezhnev were also big fans of American western films/shows (Brezhnev's favorite was The Rifleman IIRC, he even personally met with star Chuck Connors at an event). One possibility as to why the Soviets would enjoy them so much is that they viewed the films as often showing common men standing up to elites or tyrannical forces (which they may have compared to the proletariat people smashing the bourgeoisie). A very intriguing US-Soviet connection across the Cold War.

Yup I know it drove Stalin crazy I'm 100% sure cuz of how populer he was in the Soviet union but I think Stalin did try a smear campaign agenst him.

@@leomduffy794 not rly

Didn't stop him before the War with his purges.That disarray, and leadership vacuum allowed the Germans to initially roll over the Red Army during "Barbarossa".

There was another reason: he was a genious tactitian, and Stalin wanted to to keep him ,,just in case" in case of war with West.

This is historical revisionism, there was no indication of an execution of Zhukov being considered at all. Zhukov was one person Stalin trusted with his life.

I absolutely remember that too it was mentioned in one of their old videos from 2018 when it was about simply who Joseph Stalin was in short form would’ve been nice for them to include that in this video especially considering this vid is basically about who he was and his day to day life before and after he became dictator of the Soviet Union until his death

More like he wanted to find a way that if they're not following his orders, he can order to purge them. He's been a dictator, after all. He couldn't trust anyone

In Roy Medvedev's book "the unknown Stalin" it seems that it was actually Beria who was reluctant to call medical assistance to that dacha, although all if them had motive not to help save life of leader who planned to kill them eventually.

Khrushchev wasn't just involved. In July 1937, they started period know as Great Terror, in which commission of 3 men (from NKVD and Party) could investigate, arrest, sentence to death certain number of people for "counter-revolutionary activities". When setting a quota, Khrushchev came and demanded that 8000 people be set as a limit in Moscow. Stalin responded that it can't be that many, but Khrushchev insisted. Initially, 5000 executions were allowed, with Politburo approving more later that year. In 1938, Koisor, leader of Ukrainian communist party was called to Moscow, where he was executed. He was then replaced by Khrushchev. In Moscow and Ukraine, terror very intense compared to many other regions. Even Jezhov (NKVD boss) and other members, criticized excesses in those areas even before summer 1938 when most of Politburo started to see it Terror as a chaotic mistake. Stalin was a dictator that kept himself in power by excessive violence, but I wouldn't believe Khrushchev and Zhukov when they claim that Stalin is solely responsible for Terror, famine and losses of 1941-1942, while they only kept their mouth shut and were doing their job (and are therefore mostly responsible for calming of terror or win of 1943-1945). Both of them were at the side of Stalin, fully willingly participating in the system and did their own "mistakes" that were paid in lives of hundreds of thousands of Soviet citizens. Read about operation Mars for instance.

@@bigchezzy8989 "People who don't miss soviet union don't have a heart, but people who want it back don't have a brain"

"You must understand. The leading Bolsheviks who took over Russia were not Russians. They hated Russians. They hated Christians. Driven by ethnic hatred they tortured and slaughtered millions of Russians without a shred of human remorse. The October Revolution was not what you call in America the "Russian Revolution." It was an invasion and conquest over the Russian people. More of my countrymen suffered horrific crimes at their bloodstained hands than any people or nation ever suffered in the entirety of human history. It cannot be understated. Bolshevism was the greatest human slaughter of all time. The fact that most of the world is ignorant of this reality is proof that the global media itself is in the hands of the perpetrators." -Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
