I've been watching this in bits and pieces (it's 3 hours long) but it's pretty good once you settle into it's rhythm. Also kind of scary, to see how easily people line up and clap on demand - there was a lot of that in the old communist days, like it was all the fun available.
And the politics - pure mind-numbingly useless bullshit from top-to-bottom. I would've shot somebody.

I'm watching to see how Ceausescu did it, or was it all party organ bullshit? He was just some little shrimp - again - someone with no discernible leadership qualities, pumped up to epic heights.
At this point, I figure people will "follow" just about anybody,...
