The story of the rise and fall of Soviet Marshall Georgy Zhukov.

Zhukov

An EPIC series

The Mini-series &quot;Zhukov&quot; is a tremendous piece of television art. Well done, well-acted and providing an in-depth explanation of several aspects of the Marshal&apos;s life.

First, we have a wonderfully detailed look at the Military life of Zhukov as the war ends and his elevation to the head of the military, of a post war Soviet Union. Secondly, we then examine the political machinations of a government afraid of the power that they and circumstances thrust upon the victorious Marshal. And thirdly and lastly. We have a perhaps OVERY close examination of the romantic and family life of the man.

The acting was superb, except that I am a bit disappointed in the fact that none of actors seems to be able to express the process of simple aging, they all look like children imitating elderly people. The character of Misha, Zhukov&apos;s brother/cousin, appears old from his first appearance and is believable while the others &quot;age&quot; from the over application of make up which is rather unconvincing.

All in all the flaws are minor except one - the subtitles in English are terrible translations and run by much too quickly, but otherwise there is no damage to the excellence of the finished product.

Personally. I could have done with a little less of the romance which gave the production a whiff of Soap Opera to it, but nothing is perfect!
