@@r-saint Basically, they needed to characterize Beria and the Soviet methods, but most of their worst atrocities were years in the past by now. Beria actually started being uncharacteristicly merciful and generous right after Stalin's death, likely in an attempt to gain legitimacy and not inflame public opinion against him even more than it was. You can't really characterize why the Russian people hated him from his actions in the specific time period they are showing. Similarly, the civilian train massacre never happened, but is a stand in for things he was known for from earlier. Beria was an abomination, and in film visuals are critical to establishing character. Depicting him on his best behavior, which he was at this point, undermines the purpose of the film.

Russian joke about Stalin era. NKVD Chief - "Comrade Stalin, we have discovered your lookalike. What are we gonna do with him?" "Execute him." " Maybe it's better to shave his mustache?" "It's a great Idea! Shave off his mustache and then execute him!"
I've got a good one. A man goes into the streets of Moscow and yells : “I am tired of this guy with a silly mustache and stupid rules being a leader!” A soldier heard him, so he goes and catches him, later he brings the man to Stalin. Soldier says to Stalin what happened and Stalin asks the man : “Who were you thinking about when you yelled in the streets?” Man responds: “Of course i was thinking about Hitler!”; Stalin lets him go but then he stops the soldier to say: “Who were YOU thinking about?”.
Stalin personally inspected the Death Lists and as he had a photographic memory he would see names that he knew even from his youth in one case a neighbour who had been very kind to him appeared on the list, Stalin thought all night about sparing him, yes but had him sent to a Gulag just because he was on a list.Another time his NKVD bodyguard a Major moved so quietly that Stalin challenged him to creep up silently he did so and was executed the next day as a "reward".
@@shahrulamar5358 I was not aware of that, it took 2 days for someone to check on him as they were so scared of him he suffered a stroke first and when he was unable to call for help he got an celebreal bleeding a death sentence,a just and well deserved ending for such an evil creature.
I'm just sad no one has a video on the executioner scene, where he is shooting prisoners one by one in the head, and he's taking aim at the next guy while another officer comes in and says _"Stop shooting."_ *BANG* _"We don't need to kill anyone else bla bla let's get out of here."_ And they both just leave, not even caring about the prisoners anymore. And the guy that was next in line looks down apprehensively at the dead guy next to him. Lol that was a priceless scene.
When the Germans invaded the USSR in 1941, the NKVD, ahead of the advancing Germans were doing exactly this, that is, executing political and other prisoners in the 1,000’s and then downing tools and running off - “lets get out of here” when the Germans came too close. Several cities and towns in the border regions and southern Russia were scenes of such massacres.
Да, это потешно, если знаешь что снимали фильм иностранцы. От русского режиссёра я бы такую "сатиру" не понял и не простил. А так да, в очередной раз посмеялся над "тупыми американцами" как Задорнов.
I like how all the Stalin doubles were summarily executed. Just like in real life. (Only 3 of his doubles survived execution) one of them was able to write a book. I can't remember the name of the book offhand.
@@f.8861 That's one of the things I love about DoS, It doesn’t go for accuracy, but the general vibe of scene. The actor playing Stalin, had the presence and vibe of someone with Stalin's power. He played nasty and selfish just right. The tone of threat in his voice and how he speaks etc... Great casting for the whole film! 🤗
I was struggling to figure out who he was, but I think that was Officer Kobulov who was later shot after he and Aslanov interrupted Beria being rounded up.
Very daring for a satirical film to take on such a horrific subject matter. But it works as the film demonstrates perfectly the horror but also the absurdity of what is happening in this scene. This dual observation gives an unexpectedly well rounded perspective. Mind you, I couldn't imagine a satirical film taking on the holocaust, holodomor or bosnian genocide.
It’s really only because whole a lot were murdered most were either sent to the gulag or kicked out of the country most deaths came from shitty policy at the start of the USSR and it didn’t get better until 1947 when the famines finally stopped
This scene terrified me when I first saw it. Thankfully, this never happened: the dacha staff attended Stalin's funeral, and some of them later admitted to hating his guts.
Yeah but this scene never happened, the NKVD never massacred Stalin's Dacha staff and guards, undoubtedly some of them were killed or imprisoned for one ridiculous reason or another but most lived to the end of the soviet union where they could tell their stories about how big of a dickhead stalin was at home.
You really get the feeling that everyone has just barely an idea of what they need to do but they try to do it convincingly so as to not get shot themselves.

the thing is, when purges start happening you can't stop, machiavelli argues that being feared MAY be better than being loved for a ruler, but in truth a feared leader needs to maintain that fear, a beloved leader mostly just has to keep people from hating him when you start purging you have to keep doing it, hatred for your regime is everywhere, high and low I don't think that blatantly shooting your own men was to common but similar events did happen, entire staffs being murdered to make sure they could not talk, entire officer cores exterminated because they were simply to comfy with their troops and so on in the end the machine burns itsself up, you can't kill everyone or rather wil either fail to do so without revolution and can't find many willing to exterminate huge numbers of their own countrymen
Machiavelli actually never syas being feared is better, being loved is the better thing for a prince, however, being loved is a lot harder to gain and keep, while being feared is easy. so at the end of the day if you cant be loved be feared

the events that happened in the movie weren't accurate in the sense of the time at which they appeared, but were accurate in the sense that things like this actually DID happen in the Soviet Union
@@jackrutledgegoembel5896 From what I've heard, yes. Though they require a few google searches. One such case is the concert that was at the start of the movie. The film depicts it as being one of the last things to happen before Stalin suffered his stroke, but happened a few years prior. But there are some events that occured that are true to its nature in the film, such as the young and old doctors and the inexperienced operating on Stalin, mostly because the doctors on his original medical staff were all arrested a year prior in what Stalin called the "Doctor's plot". I wasn't able to find anything on the shooting that happened during Stalin's funeral when the NKVD opened fire on crowds coming in off trains, only that the NKVD apparently DID replace the Moscow guard, and Beria shut down the trains coming into Moscow. I could be wrong on this, take my info with a grain of salt.
@KfC It made perfect sense, When Stalin died, anyone who worked in Stalin's dacha could have contributed to his death. There for they sent his staff to gulags and a firing squad, And they looted stalin's dacha just based out of greed. Of course there is no record of it actually happening, But hey, why would there be any record of it if the entire purpose was for it to have never happened, Plus it would have toppled the MVD.
Matthew Redman He is a liar and a fraud. He comes up with vicious accusations when he himself was a commissar. When he got arrested for involvement in contra Soviet conspiracy, he wrote horror stories about his detainment when he in fact got better cancer treatment there than most Americans can afford with their healthcare today. He is a traitor who fetishize Nazis. When a memorial was erected to him it didn’t take long for someone to plaster «ИУДА» over it.
This one clip pretty much sums up the entire USSR and its history. Please keep this in mind the moment you decide to praise a system you never actually got to suffer.
@@stedmanwheless5372 Solzhenitsyn thought the Soviet Union was a Jewish conspiracy to destroy "Holy Russia." His book was fundamentally a political piece not one of real history. Soviet nostalgia remains common today. Either way, the NKVD was going around executing people for shits and giggles or as a pastime.
Stalin had a meeting to go to at 10AM but he never came out of his office. The security guards at the office door were to frightened of disturbing him to knock or investigate. At 1PM they finally entered his office only to find him dead of a heart attack. Had they investigated earlier Stalin might possibly been saved.
actually he died of a stroke. i think it took a few days for him to crap out. literally, everyone was too terrified to do much of anything one way or the other.

The first time I did not realize it was a "black" comedy. Had to watch it a second time before it became funny. Third time was hilarious. I can't wait for the film after Putin passes, but I will not live that long unfortunately. They might do the comedy on how Putin came to power and then started invading things. His lies and distortions are classic.
They obviously knew they were being sent to their deaths. That bloke with the gun who chases after them was probably waiting for them around the corner, they saw him, realised what was happening and ran.
@@albertsitompul5520 they were tricked and were about to be killed just like the other people who were there when stalin died. They realized that and were trying to get away. You can see the officer chasing them already has his gun out.
@@fds7476 Actually I would, but it was still interesting to have different English accents - it helped convey how in the USSR you had different ethnic groups with differently accented Russian
@@IrishCarney The Problem with that is, giving people the portrayed country's accents will be at best lazy and at worst offensive. If you want the true 1950s Russia feeling, learn russian and have a loaded gun at any time pointed at you. Otherwise using accents and dialects of the for the movie used language grants additional perks to underline the general representation of any charakter. A Geordie Dialect conveys not just a region but also a general vibe how this dialect is perceived by English speaking ears.
Did the Doctors die in this scene? I cant work out who they are executing on the grass. Because equally, I definately saw some Doctors loaded onto one of the lorries. So i cant figure it out!
@@ultrakaiser8547 Literally nothing happened to them. Stalin's housekeeper even wrote a memoir about her life and relationship with Stalin, she had nothing bad to say about him. While that should obviously be taken with quite alot of salt, nothing bad happened to Stalin's staff after his death
@@commandoslayer They knew many facts about Politburo since most policy questions Stalin decided with them on his dacha. Also they could have said something inconvinient about Stalin's last hours or days. Even slightest threat to power must be eliminated -- that's how things worked in USSR.

Theres a deleted scene where a Maid comes on to Beria and he says not tonight, Stalin just died cant you smell it? You will be suitably punished later, she runs out of the house in fear past the events in this clip then gets blown up by a mine, someone else asks what happened, are they under attack? and Beria says 'just an animal'. It was probably cut because they deleted the running plot thread of Beria molesting women of which several scenes were filmed.

Yes, here we have the true son of Stalin
Maduro whishes to be Stalin but he is nothing more than dumb fuck who is standing infront of the TRUE power in Vzla: Diosdado Cabello
@@dv2045 nah, he is not sponsored by the CIA
@@marshalondro9692 Diosdado does not need to be sponsored by CIA, he has got enough money to buy it
@@dv2045 Yes, he got everything from the USA. They sponsor him so he gets to power and sells all of Venezuelas oil to America

And the guy getting shot at the end is your sibling snitching on you
These particular executions did not happen, however execution such as this were carried out so often in USSR.
Soviet Union was like Squid Game without the prize
The prize was leaving it😊
More true than can be imagined.
When you can’t afford a moving company, so you call in all the lads
Brilliant movie, highly recommended.
How it feels trying to pack your apartment and move on the same day.
Total misunderstanding how NKVD operated. They would never delegate so much authority down to so many people.
They would also execute way more people
You know this isn't a documentary, right...?
Almost certain it’s a joke
He was a "god". They need to keep the story "proper".
Nico Watts He was a worker, the «great leader» is only existant in Juche.
Stalin was an evil murderer and psychopath
@@birdhovno why evil?
@@Семен-ш7щ8у ok, he was a good murderer and psychopath
Amen!
If this is a truthful representation of history, it is no wonder Putin is like he is. The Whole Russian nation has been traumatized for generations
the events that happened in the movie weren't accurate in the sense of the time at which they appeared, but were accurate in the sense that things like this actually DID happen in the Soviet Union
@@terrypennington2519 what is the source of things like this happening? are there records of specific real events like this?
Even before the Soviets that nation in terms of having people control anything is relatively new
@@jackrutledgegoembel5896 From what I've heard, yes. Though they require a few google searches.
One such case is the concert that was at the start of the movie. The film depicts it as being one of the last things to happen before Stalin suffered his stroke, but happened a few years prior.
But there are some events that occured that are true to its nature in the film, such as the young and old doctors and the inexperienced operating on Stalin, mostly because the doctors on his original medical staff were all arrested a year prior in what Stalin called the "Doctor's plot".
I wasn't able to find anything on the shooting that happened during Stalin's funeral when the NKVD opened fire on crowds coming in off trains, only that the NKVD apparently DID replace the Moscow guard, and Beria shut down the trains coming into Moscow. I could be wrong on this, take my info with a grain of salt.
An underrated comment. As a Russian I totally agree.
Nice to see them turning up in Opel Blitz trucks.😁
"Where the fuck she come from!?!?" Fucking killed me

Ok this is a parody but there's truth in it.
Tech 83 Studio Very little, they never purged his dacha like this, it makes no sense
@KfC It made perfect sense, When Stalin died, anyone who worked in Stalin's dacha could have contributed to his death. There for they sent his staff to gulags and a firing squad, And they looted stalin's dacha just based out of greed. Of course there is no record of it actually happening, But hey, why would there be any record of it if the entire purpose was for it to have never happened, Plus it would have toppled the MVD.
It doesnt have to make sense. After reading the gulag archapelago by Alexandr solzhenitsin you realise they shot people just to keep their quotas up.
Matthew Redman He is a liar and a fraud. He comes up with vicious accusations when he himself was a commissar. When he got arrested for involvement in contra Soviet conspiracy, he wrote horror stories about his detainment when he in fact got better cancer treatment there than most Americans can afford with their healthcare today. He is a traitor who fetishize Nazis. When a memorial was erected to him it didn’t take long for someone to plaster «ИУДА» over it.
@@matthewredman7814 practically a fiction book
This one clip pretty much sums up the entire USSR and its history. Please keep this in mind the moment you decide to praise a system you never actually got to suffer.
Did you suffer it?
I hate all forms of Government, even if it's a decent one.
@@IgorPrototype90 Solzhenitsyn sure did.
@@michelveilleux1275 Compare to Stalin, Mr Trump look almost like a saint. 🤔🤔🤔
@@stedmanwheless5372 Solzhenitsyn thought the Soviet Union was a Jewish conspiracy to destroy "Holy Russia." His book was fundamentally a political piece not one of real history. Soviet nostalgia remains common today. Either way, the NKVD was going around executing people for shits and giggles or as a pastime.
Probably one of the best days for the Chechen and Ingushets
As they say, comedy is tragedy plus time
The british accents make it more hilarious for some reason
Especially Jason Isaac's. Kinda makes him sound like more of an asshole, best performance in the whole movie
i loved the fact that they arived in opel blits truks even when the extra trucks in the back were soviet made trucks from the 70s
Holy shit
Cato from Rome is the doctor
Mind blown
Well, at least they’re efficient
That's quite the eviction notice.
Looks like NKVD arrested many Stalins at there. Nice.
Stalin had a meeting to go to at 10AM but he never came out of his office. The security guards at the office door were to frightened of disturbing him to knock or investigate. At 1PM they finally entered his office only to find him dead of a heart attack. Had they investigated earlier Stalin might possibly been saved.
actually he died of a stroke. i think it took a few days for him to crap out. literally, everyone was too terrified to do much of anything one way or the other.
НКВДшники едущие в немецких грузовиках Опель Блиц - это "сильно"! Нет, такие машины были после Войны в СССР, но наврятли они использовались в Московском гарнизоне НКВД
Don't worry everyone, it's comedy kind of movies
Ohh yes, really "ahhahaa" how russian say. (((
0:13 isn't that a german Opel Blitz truck...!?
You think the Russians didnt keep a couple souvenirs from WWII.
The first time I did not realize it was a "black" comedy. Had to watch it a second time before it became funny. Third time was hilarious. I can't wait for the film after Putin passes, but I will not live that long unfortunately. They might do the comedy on how Putin came to power and then started invading things. His lies and distortions are classic.
In Russia you don't retire, retirement retires you😂😂😂😂
Vladimir... is this what keeps you up at night?
1:07 why did they run away?
They obviously knew they were being sent to their deaths. That bloke with the gun who chases after them was probably waiting for them around the corner, they saw him, realised what was happening and ran.
Those are army troops running from the NKVD which is like the political police for pretty much everything.
Looks like the purpose for uploading this particular segment is going to remain a mystery to all but the most smoked out bros of the poster.
In Russia you end when your contract ends
i love how a soviet soldier finishes the cup of wine and throws it
"I'm supposed to kill the NKVD NCO."
01:25
"Funny, he told me the same thing."
This is like Trust nobody, not even yourself...........
One more movie for Putin
I wonder if all the Stalin lookalikes found a new job after this debacle
Did the NKVD commander also shoot himself at the end?
@Barrack Obama Vlogs Y'know, in case he was a bourgeois infiltrator...
You never know...
No he was killed during the coup scene.
No, he was taken care of later in the film after he interrupted Beria being rounded up and gagged.
Three people can keep a secret along as you kill two.
1:26 why did he execute him at the end?
He was a commanding officer who have orders to kill and a witness, which means he was a liability
I see
Another question
1:07 why did these 2 ran away from the other officer?
@@albertsitompul5520 they were tricked and were about to be killed just like the other people who were there when stalin died. They realized that and were trying to get away. You can see the officer chasing them already has his gun out.
Nothing puts me in 1950s Russia like the sound of British accents.
It's an English-language film.
Would you rather have Russian-accented English?
Spies. Every last one of them!
@@fds7476 Actually I would, but it was still interesting to have different English accents - it helped convey how in the USSR you had different ethnic groups with differently accented Russian
@@IrishCarney The Problem with that is, giving people the portrayed country's accents will be at best lazy and at worst offensive. If you want the true 1950s Russia feeling, learn russian and have a loaded gun at any time pointed at you. Otherwise using accents and dialects of the for the movie used language grants additional perks to underline the general representation of any charakter. A Geordie Dialect conveys not just a region but also a general vibe how this dialect is perceived by English speaking ears.
Think of it what will happen when the queens dieds
They got NKVDapped
When the homies help you clean up the house before your parents come home
Did the Doctors die in this scene? I cant work out who they are executing on the grass. Because equally, I definately saw some Doctors loaded onto one of the lorries. So i cant figure it out!
Forse erano i sosia
Could be bodies covered in white sheets that they put over their heads before shooting.
I like that NKVD arrived on captured Opel Blitz cars
I loved the comic more than the film adaptation
Nobody cares that you read the comic?
I have a question about why the NKVD drives a German truck
Трофей.
What actually happened to Stalin's Servants, cooks, and maids?
@Lord Admiral Spire not u.
"happened to Stalin's Servants, cooks, and maids?" nothing. Has a legend putin was Stalin's cooker son)
@@ultrakaiser8547 from what I read, gulags closed up after Stalins death
@@ultrakaiser8547 Literally nothing happened to them. Stalin's housekeeper even wrote a memoir about her life and relationship with Stalin, she had nothing bad to say about him. While that should obviously be taken with quite alot of salt, nothing bad happened to Stalin's staff after his death
One of the servant's grandson became president of Russia.
Ea asset flipping the level for their next game
Can someone explain why did they execute or at least tried to execute the guards?
Because Stalin died.
@@r-saint And why? Did they blame them? The soldier at the end being shot, why him also?
@@commandoslayer They knew many facts about Politburo since most policy questions Stalin decided with them on his dacha. Also they could have said something inconvinient about Stalin's last hours or days. Even slightest threat to power must be eliminated -- that's how things worked in USSR.
@@r-saint I saw the movie and understand now. Those in blue caps are the NKVD, Berias men. Those in red caps are the Soviet Army. Still the last one I do not understand why they shot him if he was also NKVD.
@@commandoslayer Read about Yezhov terror. You'll understand NKVD. It's like any mafia. Disposing of perpetrators of any crimes, then do more crimes, then repeat.
Holy shit i forgot this scene. Their shooting so many different people idk who their even after. Goddamn everyone was getting shot from the help to damn guy giving orders. Holy shit 😂
Шикарная сатира
My dad after saying he was just goin to leave with half of the properties
Theres a deleted scene where a Maid comes on to Beria and he says not tonight, Stalin just died cant you smell it? You will be suitably punished later, she runs out of the house in fear past the events in this clip then gets blown up by a mine, someone else asks what happened, are they under attack? and Beria says 'just an animal'. It was probably cut because they deleted the running plot thread of Beria molesting women of which several scenes were filmed.
It is so historically inaccurate that it circles back in on itself and becomes the most accurate depiction of the Stalinist era there is.
I like fantasies about Russia, maybe because I'm Russian. I like Star Trek, but I'm not an alien.👽
I love the leather overcoat as a part of the NKVD uniform...😈
