Ted Turner’s Portrait of the Soviet Union


"The Soviet Union, draped in history, born in a bloody revolution, bound together by a dream that is still being dreamt. The dream of a socialist nation marching toward the world’s first communist state."

"Once the Kremlin was the home of czars. Today it belongs to the people."

"Atheist though the state may be, freedom to worship as you believe is enshrined in the Soviet Constitution."

-- Statements by narrator Roy Scheider during three night WTBS cable "Superstation" series aired in March.
