Acrylix - Innocent
Discovery Channel The Red Bomb 2of3 End of Innocence XviD AC3 MV A more detailed investigation of Russia's nuclear coming-of-age, this episode traces the atom bomb back to its infancy - to a time when state-sponsored Russian physicists were sent to Cambridge in pursuit of an obscure new technology. But the Bolshevik government was slow to catch on to the strategic importance of atomic energy, continually dismissing it in favour of good old traditional weapons.
The Americans had Einstein, Niels Bohr and a state-of-the-art testing base in New Mexico. Meanwhile, the Russians had a "tiny cluttered laboratory" in central Moscow later upgraded to a tent in a muddy field and no uranium to speak of. Told by the men who were involved, this is a tale of success against the odds, achieved thanks to an eccentric yet dedicated network of scientists and spies including a bicycling femme fatale nicknamed "Red Sonya", and the fatal negligence of MI5.
Ethical scruples were continually shelved - America's bomb-building project was validated in the name of beating Hitler, while Russia justified its atom spies by claiming the right to information that its allies should have shared. In 1945, Niels Bohr tried to persuade the Americans that to drop the bomb would be to open a Pandora's Box of horrors. He urged Roosevelt to collaborate with Stalin on the bomb - but the President refused to listen. With post-Cold-War hindsight, Bohr's futile efforts appear as the doomed actions of a tragic hero.
The film is powered by priceless testimonies from Yuly Khariton, "Red Sonya", Ilya Starinov and Anatoly Yakovlev, to name but a few somebody seems to have gone through Stalin\'s address book. Also includes a rare archive interview with the famously taciturn Klaus Fuchs, the mole who infiltrated the American laboratories. - RoadRock Test Drive Unlimited Acrylix - Innocent
