Have any of you watched this docu-series? I was searching for the movie “All Quiet On The Western Front” to add it to my watch list.
When I found it I started to look through the recommended “similar” movies/series offered, and I saw this thumbnail that had a bright red background with a gold leaf crest that reminded me of the Soviet coat of arms.
That plus the title made me suspicious so when I clicked on it to see the description, imagine my non-surprise that communist leaders were mixed in with actual fascists.
I haven’t bothered to watch this six episode documentary due to this stupidly common conflation of Stalin and Hitler. But maybe it’s different? If any of you have watched it, I’d love to know if it’s the same shit as always or actually something refreshing, a bait-and-switch perhaps. I just don’t want to waste my time on bullshit lol
I won’t waste my time with watching this drivel either, but in general Netflix’s documentaries are lacking. I’ve watched a bit of Dirty Money and it’s all the same - an hour discussing the what and maybe the how, exploring how some victims lives were ruined, but never even once asking about motive. The viewer is left to assume that financial crimes of the largest scale are to be expected, that they happen for no reason, and there’s nothing you can really do to prevent them.
