azdak has been posting YouTube segments of this series, made for Russian TV in 1973. It is based on history, specifically a Russian agent who had worked his way high into the Nazi government in order to work against Hitler's orders to destroy Russian in the last months of the war. For those of us who grew up hearing fictional Nazis and Germans of WW II era speaking German, fake German, ridiculously-accent English to remind us that they are speaking German, hearing them speaking Russian is odd, but that goes away in how tightly the suspense begins to wind you. Especially as all the characters are three-dimensional.
