As for Stone, he concocts a story with just enough inter-sprinkled history to make it semi-plausible if you're a conspiracy theorist.

Says you!


He does play a little fast and loose but it's the new normal, no? The Soviet Union was indeed a phucked up place for most of it's history. I read one of the 'Catherine The Great' historical treatments and really enjoyed the section on Gen. Potempkin moving his village down the Volga? ahead of Cathy's royal barge everynight. It says a lot about the Russian character.
I see parallels in theater/Hollywood set making. Hmmm, that would be fun for a new crossover career, I'm getting a little tired of fixing all of the shit that renters keep breaking around here in Orange county.
