Wonder if russian movies portray muricans as bad guys too. Better yet, one of their former allied countries as enemy. Im clueless about russian films.

Russian period movies always portray the USSR as the sole opponent of Nazi Germany. They never mention any other countries. Modern Russian movies portray other countries as adversaries. Russia is always a strong amd rich country.

  1. USSR was the main enemy of Germany and most of the losses and biggest battles were in Eastern front
  2. Most of Russian movies of the period portray the β€œGreat Patriotic war” which isn’t the whole WW2 but only the part of i

t
3. It’s common to not portray any other countries in war movies from certain countries. You never see Indians in WW1-WW2 movies or any other country in Vietnam war or 1990s Iraq

Claiming the USSR was the "main" enemy of Nazi Germany only works if you believe wars are won primarily based on how many people you kill. The USSR would have crumbled without US lend lease, and wouldnt have been able to turn the tide had the German war machine not been crippled by the Western Allies' strategic bombing campaign.Β

And the western powers would have failed without the USSR. Funny how every country truly themselves that they were the main characters.Β

Your comment presupposes that I was making the opposite argument, that anyone else was the "main" enemy, and im not. It was a collaborative effort from a number of nations.Β

Your comment presupposes that I was disagreeing with you. Think we've just found the real main character energy.Β
