Allusions to Animal Farm

Animal Farm is a direct parallel to when Stalin ruled the Soviet Union. Napoleon, the bad pig, represented Stalin in everything he did. First he started out and made false promises, and was able to capture the attention and trust of those around him. Then as time wore on, he began to change how he ruled and how he treated those that were supposed to be his equals. He made it very clear that he was superior.
When you read Animal Farm, no other movies, no other books come to mind, just the time when Stalin ruled.
