What I notice with Putin in the Oliver Stone interviews, is Putin works very hard to be a serious man. This is completely opposite American politics, where easy going politicians are preferred. Putin is almost German in his serious approach. Extremely controlled person. He also takes every opportunity to point out "different opinions", again and again and again, which is aimed at the average Westerner who has a simple understanding of power. I think the interview does a good job of showing Russian national character, where it is the same as the west and were it differs. Overall I would say Putin comes out of it in a positive light if a little boring.
Its pretty funny when Oliver Stone gives him the dvd box, but the disc itself is still in the player. Putin shows the empty box and says " Typical American gift!"
