        anastasia:

        • rasputin doing evil magic causes the october revolution
        • the main character is a royal family member
        • bolsheviks are depicted as mindless zombies under rasputin’s evil spell
        • royals are depicted as sympathetic benevolent autocrats who never ever encouraged antisemetic pogroms
        • Lenin not mentioned but originally supposed to be the villain insted of Rasputin
        • wildly ahistorical even for a cartoon
        • has a few numbers, but mostly not a musical
        • the tsar is still in power october 1917 even though he abdicated months earlier
        • the tsar gets killed in october 1917 even though he was killed in 1918

        this is unsatisfactory
