Stalin, Roosevelt, and FDR, drawing much from the relatively recent release of Russian files from that era as well as memoirs from the key participants. FDR comes off as a master manipulator, keeping US intervention until the very last to exhaust the Russian state and leave it less likely to pressure for more territory after the vanquishing of Germany.
There is plenty of infuriating factual information here, including the lack of concern about the treatment of Jews and the appeasement of the Nazi war efforts. The apparent disinterest of the Allied nations to the plight of Eastern Poland, brutally possessed by Stalin, is one particularly upsetting sequence.
If you're a WWII history buff, you'll enjoy the word-for-word transcriptions and characterizations, all nicely tied up with rare actual film footage.
