Film Lesson: Doctor Zhivago

The film Doctor Zhivago Is a film about the russian revolution and the destruction of Czar Nicholas II and how the Soviet Union was Formed. The movie was about love and war at the same time. When Doctor Zhivago goes to war to help treat hurt soliders he meets a very beautiful nurse and he falls in love with her. But he also had a family back home which he loved dearly.

After when doctor Zhivago came back to his house where his family lived saw how communism had takken over Russia and his house was filled with poor people. And this was a perfect example of communism because it shows how all people are being treated equally and the rich were no longer the ones with all the big houses but the shared with the poor people.

The reason that the Russian revolution heappend was because of the unfair treatment of the lower class people in russia. They had to face "overcrowded housing with often deplorable sanitary conditions". They complaint that they had to work long hours. The often had to face risk of injury and/or death at work sites because of poor saftety and sanitary conditions.
