Oliver Stone's 'Secret History' to put Hitler 'in context'Â
"Stalin, Hitler, Mao, McCarthy -- these are people who have been vilified pretty thoroughly by history," Stone told reporters at the Television Critics Association's semi-annual press tour in Pasadena. "Stalin has another story," Stone said. "Not to paint him as a hero, but he fought the German war machine more than any single person. Hitler is an easy scapegoat throughout history. He's the product of a series of actions. People in America don't know the connection between WWI and WWII. I've been able to walk in Stalin's shoes and Hitler's shoes. We're going to educate our minds and liberalize them and broaden them. We want to move beyond opinions. Go into the funding of the Nazi party. How many American corporations were involved. Hitler is a product of a series of events, just a man who could have been assassinated." Â Stone said that conservative pundits will dislike the show.
