There was an excellent documentary that aired on ESPN recently called "Of Miracles and Men" that tells the story of the "Miracle on Ice" from the perspective of the Soviet team. It also covers some of the larger issues raised in "Red Army." I would highly recommend it. You can watch it here:

The ESPN thing was great. I am curious to see this movie now, too.
