So, there's this short documentary called 'The Stalin That Was Played by Me' from 2006. It’s intriguing how it dives into the life of Evgenij Dzhugashvili, Josef Stalin's grandson. The tone is somber, reflective—you can feel the weight of family legacy hanging over it. The pacing is quite measured, allowing you to really digest his complex feelings about his grandfather. What stands out is Evgenij's striking resemblance to Stalin, which the film plays up alongside his admiration for a figure who, let's face it, rejected him pretty harshly. It’s a little haunting, actually. You get a sense of nostalgia and conflict, which is pretty unique for a documentary. Definitely gives you food for thought about identity and legacy.
