Похвалы создателям. Получился достойный и сильный фильм. Смотрится на одном дыхании. Много приведено источников и документальных материалов. Версий. Звучат и самые смелые: здесь авторы оговариваются, что это всего лишь версия (к каждому конкретному случаю). Во всяком случае итоговая версия выглядит логичной и правдоподобной.
Для всего сериала выбраны пожалуй самые громкие темы советской эпохи, самые громкие имена. Только в коллекции УМКИ 3 картины, а в анонсе упоминается и 4-я - о "Потёмкине". Где же она?

Такі фільми дуже потрібні. Люди повинні знати правду яку від них ховали.
