<|crime|>One of the most obvious changes to the plot of the video game is the absence of the villainous organisation SPECTRE , who played a vital role in the film . Due to legal issues that have plagued the James Bond film series since 1963 , the organisation was renamed OCTOPUS and appears to lack a central leader in the same vein as Ernst Stavro Blofeld .

The plan involves the theft of a Soviet encoding machine known as the Lektor with the help of a defecting Soviet agent , Tatiana Romanova . However , Romanova is being used by OCTOPUS to lure James Bond into a trap their ultimate goal is to let him obtain the Lektor and then ambush him for it , killing him in humiliating fashion as well .

<|crime|>The documentary chronicles General William Tecumseh Sherman s historic March to the Sea through Georgia , South Carolina and North Carolina during the fall of 1864 . It shows Sherman marching 62 , 000 Union troops over 650 miles in less than 100 days , and losing only 600 men along the way . The march introduces a new concept to the already brutal Civil War total war , where the distinctions between combatants and civilians is blurred . While hated by white Southerners as a destroyer , Sherman is hailed by black Southerners as a liberator . It ends with Union victory and closes with Sherman as an old man living in New York and fondly remembering how his nephews and their uncle Billy would make ten miles a day . The documentary utilizes state of the art production techniques including CGI , special effects and historical re creations . It relies on historical reenactors to play Sherman s soldiers and all dialogue is in fact quotes from historical sources letters , Sherman s memoirs , diaries , etc . The documentary features a psychological profile on Sherman , stating that in the months leading up to the Civil War he was accused of being insane and that he contemplated suicide . Bill Oberst , the actor playing Sherman , states in a behind the scenes featurette that while the general will always be a controversial figure , he hopes that the documentary will shed light on why the man did what he did . It emphasizes that Sherman was loved by the enslaved blacks whom he freed and that while he did not see himself as fighting to destroy slavery , he nevertheless made a point of treating blacks whom he met with courtesy and respect . The documentary also shows the reactions of his soldiers as they met blacks along the March . Many had never seen a black person and were surprised to learn that blacks were ordinary people . The documentary also mentions that Sherman killed far fewer Confederate soldiers and civilians than did Ulysses S . Grant , his friend and fellow general , yet Sherman was the one vilified . The scholars interviewed postulate that the South had need for a scapegoat in the wake of the Civil War and that Sherman was the easiest target . For his part , Sherman is stated to have seen himself as only doing his duty and that he did not care what people said about him one way or the other .
