I am just thinking that many of us do not know to appreciate that we were born to average parents, having averages lives, at times struggling, at times in happiness, but we own our lives.
Well said.
EXACTLY
ya. living normal is sometimes the best you can get. People are just getting out of control when they involved with power and survival instinct. it is just completely brutal. wouldn't surprised they got insane sooner or later.
Yes, beautifully said.
Average is dull, nothing to be proud of.
These kind of documented videos should be taught in American History Classes, and all free Nation's Classroom. 🙏🇺🇸🙏🌏✌️
I find these videos very interesting. I think it's important that we know history, especially when we have people like Svetlana to give us first-hand experiences.
A traitor, unlike her father who was a great man
@@bitterballs356 A great sociopathic murderer!
@@bitterballs356 hahha.
Сталин был жалким и трусливым психопатом, очень похожим на сегодняшнего Путина, слава Украине 🇺🇦
@@bitterballs356svetlana never betrayed her father
How tragic!!! I didn’t know she had children. She was someone who needed intensive therapy. I know she wasn’t willing to do something like that; and besides, she was virtually kryptonite. She could not get away from her father’s horrendous legacy.
Nonsens! No one needs therapy! Everyone needs LOVE!!
A small simple comment from one who has studied the Russian Revolution most of my adult days: When she is resting in bed after giving birth, she really looks like her father. Her life was what she made it and I do suppose she did find some happiness and gain. Money is great as it answers all things, but for her it was not going to bring her what her soul possibly longed for. Thank you for a great video.
Great historical video . . . .
She was a colorful courageous yet restless soul
She didn’t appreciate her financial success. Whatever we don’t appreciate Life takes away from us
Regardless it wasn’t an easy life for her
I hope she is at peace now
@R K I believe there's many people born into money that never appreciated it. They still have money.
@@jrmckim life is ongoing. What you see is only a moment in time of another persons life. Laws of Life are absolute & favor no man or woman no matter their position
Yes, his image but for a moustache and a pipe.
Brilliant documentary !
Didn’t have the clue that she lived until 2010’s
Whata life sorry for her children though
I can't imagine how Olga feels when she goes somewhere & maybe sees an old magazine cover with her grandfather on it. I wonder if she's ever even wanted to go to Russia to meet her half sister.
Most supposedly she just feels somehow odd about the fact, that her grandfather was Stalin, since she never got to know him. And as she grew up in the US maybe she would've wanted to get to know Russia just out of family interest, but nonetheless it would be a foreign country to her.
@@hoodyniszwangsjacke3190 So true! I just can't imagine how I'd feel in her place. It must feel very odd.
He is not from Russia, but from Georgia. And he is not Russian. But how will you even know that?
What a story! What a story!
Utterly tragic. She couldn't reconcile her family & past, and who can blame her? I cannot imagine what she must have thought & felt about her dad. His entire family doomed to death & misery from the start. Horrific.
And I could have done without seeing murder.
Stalin had Hitler beat in murder's

Excellent balanced documentary!!! Thanks for allowing us to learn about person!
When I was in college in Vietnam taking international history, my instructor cited Stalin's phrase "I don't exchange a private for a field Marshall" with so much pride, i did not know the whole context. The propaganda made it like Stalin had sacrificed his family for the cause of the nation. Anyway, the worst actions that Svetlana took was to marry someone within a short time. Also, being raised as a privileged daughter in the former Soviet Union would not make her successful in the United States at all. She did not understand the concept of earning money and making a plan for the old age.
An interesting perspective
I think she subconsciously needed to suffer as she didn't deserve any better.
Thanks so much for the eye opening documentary.
As mentioned, Svetlana was the wife of Wesley Peters, the chief assistant architect of Frank Lloyd Wright. But she was Peterson's second wife. His first wife was also named Svetlana. She was the daughter of Frank Lloyd Wright and his Yugoslavian wife Olgivanna.
@DONNELLO Your comment brought me back to my regret over the way I stated my own. Long ago, when I first learned that Wesley Peters had two wives, both named Svetlana, I thought that it had to be one of the strangest coincidences ever. How many women in America had the name Svetlana? I'm Slavic myself and have never heard of that name except for these two. Yet in my post I failed to emphasize the coincidence that motivated me in the first place.
Fascinating. Thank You
Excellent documentary.
Who told you that Vasilii Stalin was buried alongside of his mother?. He died and was buried in the city of Kazan and later was exhumed and taken to Georgia for burial. Have you guys researched the facts before putting together this movie? I doubt it….I doubt that he was imprisoned, he was, probably, arrested for a short time and sent to exile to the city of Kazan where he worked at the plant manufacturing military jets. He indeed suffered from alcoholism and died as a consequence. And as I wrote earlier he was buried at Arsk cemetery in the city of Kazan.
On November 20, 2002, his body was reburied at the Troekurovskoye Cemetery in Moscow.
The best historical evidence suggests that Svetlana's mother committed suicide. Of course, Stalin was a ruthless SOB so anything is possible. But this documentary should have at least mentioned that the most plausible explanation offered by most historians (Russian and non-Russian) is that she committed suicide.
I was thinking that Stalin either beat her to death or shot her. But the documentary only suggested a suicide.
Yes. Also Stalin later took revenge on the family member who had brought the automatic pistol as a gift to his wife, from Germany. "Couldn't you have brought her something better?"
Like all of the current suicidal oligarchs. Very ironic.
She was veryyy vocal against Stalin & had a very huge public fight. Many of Stalin's flying monkeys were critical of her & might had feared she could influenced him. They could had killed her, unbeknownst to him & made it looked like suicide. She was a strong woman, a fighter & stood up to him. I seriously doubt that she killed herself & leave her children in the middle of that craziness!!!
There needs to be a documentary on how she lost her money! 3 million back then was an obscene amount of money. And that was only for her first book.
I was just thinking the same, how in the heck could one person who didn’t live a high lifestyle go through all that money. Boggles the mind. I guess buying that farm for her husbands son went through a bit but not three million plus her royalties from her book.
She gave it away to charities.
A heartrending and wonderful film, thank you so much.
She was obviously an incredible woman. How she could get so many men to fall in love with her and marry her quickly. Even the right hand of Frank Lloyd Wright. An amazing story
she had a high I.Q. im not saying thats the reason
Her father being the "tzar" of Russia might've played a great role. Opportunists trying to climb up the power ladder
Yea an incredible woman who abandoned her kids
Thank you. History is revealed one more time.
Amazing story of an incredible woman.
That was her dad. No one talk about him. You defend your family because you love them no matter what they have done. It's hard for other people to understand some times in life.
Idk about that
My Dad has her book 'Svetlana' first edition. She couldn't ever get away from the shadow of her father and wow, did she go through men.
Running from her brokenheart, and mind, so terribly devastating, and sad. 😢
Did you see her ?? Chew your own arm off in the morning, so you can sneak out.
"Going through men" is a childhood trauma response. People judge harshly without knowing that it's just their subconscious pain acting out 🥺
She was petrified of the KGB coming after her. My sister went to elementary school with Olga briefly and my mother befriended Svetlana. When she sold her house in NJ (not Princeton but Pennington) the new owners would drive by to show family the house they were buying and Svetlana thought it was the KGB. I know it was the new owners because my mother knew them and I became friends with one of their daughters.
Sleepers??
Khrushchev's son forgot to tell his father participated very actively in Stalin's purges.
Also Mikoyan's son forgot to mention, that his father was even worse, than Stalin(((
Selectively too! ✅
And what choice they had????
She was destined to die as she died because she was spoiled & vulnerable,never knowing how to take care of herself. $3- million was a LOT of money in 1967 equal to $27- mil in 2022. She never knew the value of money, nor cared to. Place on top of that the trauma she suffered growing up, I’m surprised she was as mentally stable as she was.
I wonder if she ever met with the woman who faked being the sole survivor of the Tzar family murdered at time of the revolution? She was living in a small modest house just outside Washington DC.
I think it was self inflicted. Subconscious or not, she needed to suffer as penance.
even this documentary is more about her father
She was a spoiled brat.
Triste historia 😭 la sombra de su padre siempre la persiguió
a Tragedy,without Ending!!! So many-all over the world-live the sins of the Fathers!!! To me; the greatest Tragedy IS; The continuation of ALL!! In my life the learning has never seased: " World Peace Begins At Home"
What a mom ! Leaves her kids (17 year old daughter) behind in Soviet Union !
She was a spoiled brat.
@@deeplorable8988 true !
Don't judge. She was intelligent woman, so thankful for her memoirs. Svetlana❤️
Sins of the fathers always catches up with the innocent children...very sad. A common life is far much happier.
May you finally find peace Svetlana. Be that guilding light that seemed to be in you!
Wow Svetlana caught a hissy fit. Not wanting to talk about her father. She did not realize that without the fact of who her father was no one would want to interview her. And to make matters worse she did nothing in life to distinguish herself in any way.
Who said she wanted to be interviewed? She wrote two books. Did you?
What a tragic life. Trying to run away from a father with a legacy of Love, Hate, Fear and Respect all at the same time.....
It was very well presented by the filmmakers and I enjoyed watching it . But l noticed that that none of the films about Svetlana mentioned ( perhaps they didn't know) that she died in Bristol (UK) were she was living in one of retirement homes, receiving reasonable state pension. I learnt about it from a couple who stayed at the same place. They spoke to me about her when they leant that l was from Russia. They also said that they had to organize her funeral as no relatives or old friends turned up for her funeral. Perhaps the retirement home was somewhere near Whiteladys Road in Bristol as l spoke to them at an Exercise Club off Whiteladys Rd.
Fantastic listening to this documentary.
Many thanks!
, excellent documentary
Thank you ..❤❤❤❤❤
Lovely, ... & my mother and her sister were starving, their father was in prison fir wanting a free Ukraine & their mother was struggling, fighting in lines just to get bad bread.
Rather tragic, sad. Very interesting.
Thanks 🙏👍
Wow Stalin who was a Georgian suddenly became Russian.
Just because he was a. Monster doesn't mean she was its a coin toss we don't ask for the parents we wamt you get what you get some are lucky, some not so much, sometime a nightmare. Pol pots.daughter is a kind person
Do you have the proofs of him been monstrous as you call him so!?
@@janestones323 Stalin is up there with Hitler, Mussolini ,Pol Pot and other strong man leader who lead there people to war and genocide also rcausng the death of people close to them duei there own paranoia
She is the ray or star wars
She actually entered the usa already a milionare.She was worth 9milioj dollars
Well done.
How dreadfully sad…
Very interesting! I just subscribed.
What a family story.
Secrets are like zombies..
they never truly die.
Listen joey Stalin was as ruthless as they come
Yakov his son was more of a hero and a man Stalin could of ever been
When I was young, I "learnt" that the Germans killed him. It was probably part of the Soviet propaganda. It was more logically that he committed suicide, due to no future ahead of him, if/when he could return to Russia. Stalin mistreated his daughter-in-law, Yakov's wife, even though he liked her. His reason was that her husband had not had the courage of committing suicide just before he was arrested.
They say the children pay the price of the sins of their parents….
How does one process the fact that their father is perhaps the worst monster in the history of the modern world - worse even than Hitler?
Killed a lot more than Hitler, not as many as Mao.
She probably didn't care and loved being pampered
I do not admire her or her brother’s how hard it must of been in youth unaware then while maturing becoming aware of the monster their father truly was and yet loving him . Her children yes that was hard for them cause it’s still being abandoned even if they are 17 and 21 that’s sad . The part of her life where her brother is denied the trade that horrific to me how one with so much power could have did the trade but his twisted ego of power over powered love of ones own child . I don’t believe starlings children were like him they suffered cause they were his children. I pray the 2 girls are ok
49:28, Svetlana explodes in anger.
That was scary.
@@alextaylor8776 just a HissyFit,you scare easily.
@@patmiddleton3947 I do, I’m getting old.
Why is the narrator calling her Svetlanner? And Olger? It’s SvetlanUH. And OlgUH.
I found her daughters store in Portland, but it was closed. Wonder if she opened somewhere else.
Funny how A son dies but an daughter escape the shadow of her father alive respect to that.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Svetlana Iosifovna Alliluyeva was definitely her father’s son, from her angry outbreaks to her several marriages to her iron will. She either didn’t or wouldn’t acknowledge that she was of interest only because she was Stalin’s daughter. Her father was responsible for millions upon millions of deaths, and he also murdered her mother. How can one live with such burdens? I’m fortunate to have had wonderful parents. Poor little rich girl Svetlana. 😢
her mother commited suicide-so i guess maybe, in a way
False. Pure fabrications. Aren't u tired of defaming Stalin. U have been doing this since the 1930's?
The reality is absolutly different...
It is a bit of an exaggeration to say that she died:"in utter poverty". Anyone believeing that has not SEEN "utter poverty".
After seeing the movie "The Death of Stalin," I wondered what happened to Svetlana. Now I know. Sad life. I was happy to see that Stalin's grandson looked nothing like him. The world could do without another Stalin. Could also do without a Putin for that matter.

Why do the crowds cry for this monster??
In April 12, 1967 Svetlana arrives in New York at 42.
The most famous defector was Rudolf Nureyev.
Whats up with the sons and the tragedy of their young lives?....does it ensure no successors then or is it comeuppance for the atrocities of blood on the hands of Stalin?
Truth evetually manifests itself.
16:10, this witness testifies that Stalin was an affectionate father.
WHY do I find this hard to believe???
@@ms.chrisie8040 it's not hard to believe; even a monster like Stalin can show affection when they want to!
Hitler could also be affectionate.
@@Gail-gf7km yes, that's certainly true, because I've seen him in films & photographs with children cuddling them affectionately. But only as long as they were white. Hahahahahaha!
It's normal for abusive psychopathic narcissists to show affection when you do what they want you to do. Jeffrey Dahmer was also capable of showing affection
Not AlliluEva, but AllilUeva. (the name comes ftom "Alleluja")
Again, Stálin was a bloody JESUIT!!!
Svetlana
....definition?
Of the Stars? Sky? Heavens?
Anyone know for certain?

So sad...😢
Very interesting but a lot of obvious gaps. Perhaps some fear of genetic sociopathic tendencies would be valid too. thanks
the most interesting thing about that girl imo it's that she is among the first people bearing it and being a daughter of stalin it helped to popularise it further, that name is an interesting one because before the revolution a human couldn't be named like that but a warship or a literary heroine could since the russian orthodox church didn't recognise it, it was invented in one 19th century poem and got pretty popular but... unusable. after the revolution people stopped caring about the church opinions and furthermore the modern russian orthodox church recognised it by finding a patron saint, saint photina, with a differently sounding but similar in the meaning (lightbearer, lighty... not exactly but you got the idea) name
it - her name of course lol
❤
Sergei K, the political scientist, should have stuck to speaking Russian. I understood almost nothing he said. Must have been full of pride of speaking a foreign language. Very foreign to him, indeed. 🤦♂️
So accidental death is a Russian thing.
6:30
Fall in love with her get thrown into a gulag a year later she is with someone else while you suffer was it worth it really 😢😢
Well, the apple didn't fall far from the tree with her. She seemed courageous, thoughtful, empathetic...and abandons her teenage children in Russia to go to the US and be "I'm free!" and be paranoid like her dad. If she had taken time to listen to people she would have been amazing.
I don't think she's such a bad person.
So even as an old woman she’s throwing tantrums. That’s classy! 🙄🙄🙄
She let out poisonous hostility--we needed to see that to know how unhappy she was.
Yes, he was Stalin, who said his son, " I'm not Stalin, the entire Soviet people are Stalin."
He was the same Stalin who refused to exchange his own son captivated by the Nazi Germany with Paulus, the German General.
He built up Soviet Union.
He build up Soviet Union ?
On more than 20 MILLION Russians that were killed under his Terror regime !
You need to learn about history before you write such nonsense !

So sorry for these poor kids! It's our duty to save them ! Tell me - I have seen enough and years ago I travelled to Somalia - you are aware that even with little food, water and the basic things to live the reality is the following: girls forced to marry as young 13 and are always pregnant if they survive by the age of 30 they give birth to 8/10 children half will die in the first 24 months and they suffer every day of their life....is it normal, is it ethically acceptable ? First thing to do to spare them pain before they die would be to help the mothers not to become pregnant ..every unborn child will be spared hell on earth and also help the others to live more decently. A balanced BIRTH CONTROL policy MUST be proposed and made acceptable....the "fathers" forced to take responsibility
I know that it will not happen because of silly excuses like "it's their culture" really? In some way you are also responsible for this endless chain of sufferance.
100% correct! The suffering of small children must end! NOW! It has been lasting for tens of thousands of years.
First of all stop opposing American law and Authority on other nations🐺🐺🐺
She turned to be as crazy as her father.
It must have been hard for her.
If his daughter had called him out on any of his private behavior or public failings or political killings, he wouldn’t have been an affectionate father any more-extreme physiologic naricissist.
Psychopathic
Svetlana wouldn't have been anywhere too...
He might have killedher like he did her mother.
It would be better production if the reader learnt pronounce the names of the main personages in this story...
While it was obvious the Russian Empire was in a bad way and in a major need of a progressive and industrious tsar, there were none to be had. Problem is the last truly progressive Romanov was Catherine the Great. Almost every tsar in the 19th century was more concerned with maintaining autocracy than advancing the country and people themselves. Unfortunately they had to go bc they were all obsessed with their own personal power. They were treated like gods and Russia as their personal property. Their selfishness brought about an all powerful tsar that killed millions upon millions. Stalin made himself the tsar, communism the religion, and Russia as the most important. He made some slight changes to what every Russian already was accustomed.
Stalin was monarchist. Saved Russia from comunism. 70% of Russians still like him for that!
It shows that schizophrenic paranoia runs in the family
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Pretty girl she was. Sad to see her getting this hysterical attack in the old people's home at the end of this video. Weird that I think Svetlana was exactly the type of girls Adolf Hitler very much liked. Kind of Geli.
alcohol caused all the wrong actions
She had a hard life. She wanted out of Russia.

Her murderous father killed so many innocent people, but she still defended her father, she won't let people talk about her murderous father, Stalin's descendants should all go to hell.
Too weird for me,,sounds like a blown up tragic soap opera.
