Part 2 of the 1962 documentary “The Truth About Communism” continues its explanation of the terror presented by the Soviet Union and its ideology. Narrated by Ronald Reagan (who as United States President nearly 30 years after this film would influence the fall of Communism), the picture opens in Czechoslovakia where democratic elements, led by President Edvard Benes, hoped the Soviet Union would allow Czechoslovakia the freedom to choose its own form of government and aspired to a Czechoslovakia that would act as a bridge between East and West. Communist leaders pushed for a coalition government instead, with Klement Gottwald as prime minister, and in 1948 took power. To divert attention, Reagan explains Stalin ordered violent protests in Colombia (mark 02:25) with riots killing 1,000 people and destroying more than 100 buildings. Stalin then blocks access routes into Berlin, Germany (mark 02:55) leading to the Berlin airlift (mark 03:15). In June 1950, with Stalin’s prompting, North Korea and South Korea go to war (mark 07:50) as battle scenes flood the screen before a truce is declared in 1953. The film returns to the Kremlin at mark 09:20 and an explanation of how Stalin executed hundreds of Jewish doctors and leaders after accusing them of conspiracy and espionage. His purge continues until news of the Soviet leader’s March 1953 death as the headline “Stroke Fells Stalin” flashes onto the screen at mark 10:08. “The end of a tyrant,” Reagan says. <p><p>We then follow Khrushchev’s sudden rise to power as secretary-general of the Soviet Union (mark 12:35) as he staffs key positions with his own followers and at mark 13:10 is shown delievering his de-Stalinization speech (a process of political reform in the Soviet Union consisting of changing or removing key institutions that helped Stalin hold power). There are scenes from the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 starting at mark 15:27 and the subsequent Soviet response (mark 20:20). Reagan discusses the role of propaganda in the spread of Communism and reminds the viewer of Chairman Mao’s prediction that war with the West is inevitable (mark 26:35). As it winds down, we see scenes of President Dwight D. Eisenhower being protested during a visit in Uruguay (mark 30:32) and Vice President Richard Nixon being protested by Communists in Venezuela (mark 30:42). As more scenes of violence fill the screen, it nears its end with the construction of Berlin Wall (mark 31:35) — as people desperately flee through the barbed wire. <p><p>We encourage viewers to add comments and, especially, to provide additional information about our videos by adding a comment!

A crawl at the opening seconds of the 1962 film “The Truth About Communism” explains that this film was shown to Alexander Kerensky, a lawyer, politician, Minister of War, and minister-chairman of the Russian Provisional Government overthrown by Communists in the 1917 Russian Revolution. Kerensky introduces the documentary starting at mark 00:35, explains how he had been leader of the provisional government before being overthrown, and notes that the Russian people are victims of Communism. A passage of the Manifesto of the Communist Party (including the proclamation that the “proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains”) flashes on the screen at mark 02:25 before scenes of the revolution (taken by Russian cameraman as they occurred) are shown. Leon Trotsky, a leader of the revolution and a founding member of the Red Army, speaks from the back of a train at mark 03:00, and at mark 03:10 we learn of the film’s narrator — Ronald Reagan — who as United States President nearly 30 years after this film would be influential in the fall of Communism. <p><p>Reagan explains that it will be up to the audience to help meet the Communist challenge in the world and we see a map showing the “conspiracy that is communism” (mark 03:50) as well as Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev (mark 03:56), Chinese Chairman Mao Tse-tung (mark 04:14), Cuban leader Fidel Castro (mark 04:22) — all of whom claim that co-existence with capitalism is impossible. “There target is us. Our institutions, our religions, our families, our children,” Reagan says. He goes on to describe Karl Marx as “a sick man … sick in body and spirit.” We witness the abdication of Tsar Nicholas II at mark 06:00 and the arrival of Vladimir Lenin in Petrograd (St. Petersburg) at mark 06:20 as he speaks before a crowd of onlookers. We see a young Kerensky before the Communists take over the country and are shown executing anyone who stands in their way (mark 07:00). US President Herbert Hoover is shown at mark 08:28 as he pledges aid to Russia and its people. Following Lenin’s death in 1924, Josef Stalin (mark 08:57) takes over as Russia’s leader, changing the course of history. <p><p>As the film continues, we learn of the exile and eventual murder of opposition members such as Trotsky, the abolishment of religion, and the rise of atheism. Children are introduced to military training at an early age and independent farms are turned into collectives, with the drama playing out in various scenes beginning at mark 13:47. Secret police forces and slave labor camps are created (and shown at mark 15:10), and some like Soviet writer Maxim Gorky (shown at mark 17:08) mysteriously die. In the wake of these purges, Reagan explains, Khrushchev begins his rise to power. With Adolf Hitler’s (shown at mark 20:55) rise to power in Nazi Germany and the onset of World War II, Stalin and Hitler agree to a non-aggression pact — only to be attacked by Germany (mark 30:05). By the end of WWII, Communists occupy all of Eastern Europe and one-third of Germany. By 1949, “China falls to the Reds,” Reagan says at mark 37:10. “Another 700 million people under Communist control.”<p><p>We encourage viewers to add comments and, especially, to provide additional information about our videos by adding a comment!
