I like how Stalin was begging for opening of the second front whereas he could have done it himself in 1940 when all German army was in France. The British however were defeated on land and absolutely had no resources for a massive landing endeavor in 1941. The Soviets in fact were content cooperating with Hitler for 2 years when England and France remained Hitler's principal adversaries.

An incredible production. The Split Screen conversations are a novel approach to what must be the mail/telegraph communications between these three men. And the scenes shot against the back-projection of black and white documentary footage. Excellently portrayed by Hoskins, Lithgow and Caine - three of the movie 'Greats'. Thanks BabyBoom, for preventing me from going to bed! ))

I concur and would like to associate myself with your assessment as to the effectiveness of the split-screen conversations as a vehicle to getting stale written communications on to the screen. It sounds relatively easy to do, but if it had not been done as effectively it would’ve been almost as dull is reading the initial missives in the first place. Mind you I would never find reading these messages dull! :-) But this is a good way of getting casual studiers of history into the minds of these three men

What this and most WW2 productions leave out is that Stalin feared greatly that Japan would attack the Soviet Union as Germany did, thus creating a 2-front nightmare for the Russians. Stalin held most of his Siberia troops in place for this possibility, until 1942, especially in the battle of Stalingrad. There is no mention of the incredible victory of Midway in this piece, which took the pressure off of Stalin’s fear of an attack from Japan.

That ain't quite right. Ever heard about Richard Sorge, German communist, who spied on the Nazi ambassador in Tokyo ? You should read up on him. He was the one who informed STAVKA about Japan not planning to enter the war against the USSR. He gave his life for that intel and was awarded Hero of the Soviet Union posthumously. A truely noble character...

The main point in this series is to watch how the relationship of the characters develops. How Churchill did in fact do everything possible to push the D-Day landing off the table. On the other hand FDR saw a great opportunity to put America in a position to rise up by leading the western European war while Stalin (Russia) won the eastern European war against Hitler. As we know the British Empire fell and the American one rose. With the dealth of FDR the Cold War began under Truman. The script and actors are dynamic.

@teslagod2003 Yeah. It was all Truman's fault that Stalin turned eastern Europe into a bunch of puppet states while Truman allowed Japan and Western Europe to return to autonomy. The USSR was every bit as responsible for starting WWII as the Germans. They were essentially allies. Stalin was an idiot for expecting Hitler to honor the non-agression pact and was again an idiot again when he refused to recognize what the rest of the world knew all the time. Hitler was going to betray him. To expect we could have had a world wide group hug with him once our interests diverged is a fantasy. Stalin was a paranoid monster that was every bit the mass murderer Hitlers was. The only difference is he was OUR mass murderer. As they say, nations don't have friends, they have interests. And take a class in grammar and when to use capital letters.

You will have to watch it with subtitles, it's in French. French director Jean Renoir was the son of artist Pierre Auguste Renoir, fought at the WWI front and just barely avoided having a leg amputated. I've always felt his film is like a visual haiku - if you've seen Akira Kurosawa's Japanese films 'Ran' or 'Dersu Usala', you will see the same use of a spacious silence in Grande Illusion.

Kudos to Michael Caine. I did not immediately recognize him. I watched a good hour of this program before I noticed his name in the credits and wondered what part he played. It needed a good close look at Stalin before I could identify Caine by his eyes. I never thought he could disguise his accent so well that I would not know him by his voice. I don't know if that is considered a good Russian accent but it was certainly convincing enough for me.

When I saw the cast, I thought it was Lithgow playing Churchill but Hoskins does a PHENOMENAL job, providing all the spine and dignity inherent in the man. Lithgow was less effective as FDR and would ALSO be great as Churchill 20 years later.

Actually, I've never seen a bad portrayal of Churchill, have you? Bob Hoskins is one of my favorite actors and did a perfect job here. I'd never have looked at him and thought "he'd make a great Churchill." Luckily the casting director did.😊

Perhaps this has already been asked and answered and I simply missed it. If so, I apologize. But, was this originally a play/stage production. It’s excellent and incredibly well-acted and executed but has that quality to it which seems suited to the West End of Broadway. Again, I say this with due respect for a phenomenally acted and produced WWII character piece.

LOL That guy Stalin was dead on with his characterization of Churchill and the English, in Tehran. They would never have tried an invasion of Northern France had they not been pushed by the US and Russia. To this day, I have a hard time believing they withdrew 350k troops from Dunkirk without putting up a battle.

@@alexcarter8807 ,. They put an act of betrayal behind a screen of a poor excuse. Britain had no hope of ever defeating Germany. If they had it was then with their backs against the channel, a 350k man Army, and the Royal Navy's guns firing over their heads. Instead they ran home with their tails between their legs and respect shattered before the French. In 1941, they betrayed their Pacific Allies, Australia and New Zealand. Abandoning them to defend themselves from Japanese aggression, without their troops. Troops they had every intention of keeping under their command in N Africa, Greece, and India. They even attempted to get FDR to abandon the Pacific, and give our full weight of power to defend Britain.
