Film Lesson: Doctor Zhivago

The film described about the Russian civil war and how the Russians quit from the world war I. Right after the beginning of the world war, the Russians lost a lot of people and thousands of people were wounded. The people got tired of the war and wanted to go home to their family. So they argued with the political leader called the czar and took over. The czar was sent to jail and there were no more king or master for the citizens. The people were free and do which ever job they wanted. In that way no one had to starve when they aren't capable of earning. That is how communism was born. In the movie the doctor wants to help the people that are wounded in the war and later on he had different problems in the communist society.
