Marginal Utility: The Pleasures of Propaganda
Many doods my age may best remember the Cold War as a double header of boxing matches in part IV of a raging boxing series with the first fight getting a former American champ literally killed in the ring by ultra villaineous boxing nightmare that was Ivan Drago. Then the fallen yankee's buddy and current world HW champ vowed to avenge his homie's death in a fight all the way in Russia (but actually filmed in the good ol Agrodome in the PNE) where Drago uttered 4 immortal Cold War words to his Italian American opponent.
But a recent documentary entitled Animated Soviet Propaganda may better animate what the domestic Soviet propaganda machine was all about as it covers the more than 4 dozen animated proganda films made by those evil ol' Commies.
