      That movie probably for the most part utilized resources which could not aid the front any further.
      Money, for instance is not important in war as its value is highly manipulated by the state (usually by very high inflation brought about by excessive printing of fiat money to effectively decrease the value of labor and material. Not sustainable in the long run, but effective at lowering the already huge cost of the war to the state).

      If Russians claim they "liberated" a nation, and such nation claims they didn't, then "liberated" nation was not liberated at all, just occupied.
      If you disagree you stand on the occupant side, it's the same thing as saying that Leopold II liberated Congo.

      The Soviets purposefully left the poles in the Warsaw uprising go die
      And it wasn’t a “Quasi satellite state” the first Polish communist constitution literally had personal amendments by Stalin himself, the communists in the early years killed thousands of poles who opposed the regime and wanted a free Poland, Witold Pilecki, a Polish resistance leader who infiltrated Aushwitz and later escaped, had his fate sealed when tears after the war the communists arranged a kangaroo trial sentencing him to death, he was shot in the head with no dignity

      A staunch ally and supporter of Emperor Napoleon I of France, Poniatowski voluntarily took part in the French invasion of Russia of 1812. Injuries received during the fighting for Moscow eventually forced his return to Warsaw, where he worked on the reconstruction of the Polish forces intended to fight in Germany. Covering the retreat of the French army after Napoleon lost the "Battle of the Nations" at Leipzig (1813), Poniatowski was repeatedly wounded and drowned in the Elster river.
