Russian Lullaby from Circus Цирк (СССР, 1936) — Stalin’s favorite movie

Like Vladimir Putin’s Russian🇷🇺Federation, Josef Stalin’s Soviet☭Union was based—and for the same reasons. No wonder Putin seeks to fully rehabilitate image of Stalin as heroic leader (although he enslaved and mass-murdered millions, Stalin’s popularity cult never faded in Russia).

Stalin’s favorite film of all time was 1936 Soviet classic Circus (Цирк). Lyubov Orlova stars as Marian, a blonde White woman who had mixed-race black baby so is chased out of USA by a racist American lynch mob. However she escapes to find love and acceptance in USSR where racism is illegal.

A blond White man Ivan falls in love with Marian and will raise her black child with her, while racist White men get cucked, are mocked as Nazis, and get literally laughed🤡at—at a circus!🎪 The climax scene depicts Soviet victory over racism, and friendship of nations lullaby sung by mixed-race couples to her black baby in Russian, Ukrainian, Georgian, Uzbek, and Yiddish.

Stalin loved Circus so much, he almost made a song from the film the Soviet anthem, and the 1936 classic was the last film Stalin chose to screen before his death in 1953.

Circus is what the good old days look like to Russians who miss USSR superpower that won Great Patriotic War in 1945, put the first man in space—and invented the ‘cucked’ genre!
