Wonderful little interview with Han Suyin (1916-2012), author of Wind in the Tower and Eldest son (biographies of Mao and Zhou Enlai respectively).

Also somehow a biographer has better historical analysis of the transition from Chiang to Mao to Deng than many other supposedly "learned" peoples.

(I know her comment about stalin will probably sour the video somewhat, but I do think its still very good)
