Those are some outstanding quotes!

I know a lot of people assert that he was some kind of propagandist for Joe Stalin, but that's not the impression I get from watching his films.

If you look at the subtext of a film like "Alexander the Great", there are a lot of subversive messages inserted into the dialogue.

Personally, I don't have enough information about the man to pass judgment, but in my opinion, he seems to have a lot in common with Shostakovitch.
