*Yes, it's not a documentary, and it compressed some timelines, some events
happened over months not days, and some people were composites of several
real people. We **will never know for certain exactly what happened in the
time immediately after Stalin's death, but none of the events depicted in
the movie were invented out of whole cloth. And the movie didn't include
some even more outrageous rumors that were floating around at the time.
Some have criticized the costumes used in the movie because General Zhukov
was wearing a ridiculous number of metals, however the director insisted
that they use FEWER medals because if they used as many as the real Zhukov
did nobody would believe it.  *
