=Plan of the Investigation (100-150 Words) Tips]=

This investigation focuses on how the film Rasputin is useful to the historians studying the fall of the Tsarism in Russia in the twentieth century. I have chosen to focus on this question as the film tries to describe the life of Rasputin while describing the reasons of the downfall of the Tsarism in 1917, so it might be useful to the historians. I am going to analyse the film by observing the key scenes and comparing it to the real facts occurred at the time. In order to answer this question, I have structured my analysis into two parts. Firstly I am going to focalise on the general background of the situation of Russia in 1917. Whereas the second part is going to be focused on the individual aspects of the film Rasputin by Uli Edel and what this film is useful or not to the historians trying to understand what happened and how the Tsarism fell. Also I will look at some books as //Rasputin: The saint who sinned// by Brian Moynahan, and //The fate of the Romanovs// by Greg King and Penny Wilson. (//186 words)//
