Shane,
There are few movies that are not exactly about the war, but they are still quite interesting films about Stalin's era and you may enjoy them as well.
They all have been either made in the West or translated into English.
1) "The Inner Circle" - was filmed in Hollywood (in the beginning of 90s), but the director - Konchalovskiy - is Russian.
2) "East-West" - joint Russian-French production, filmed in the end of 90s. Major modern Russian and French stars are in this film: Bodrov, Menshikov, Katherin Denev.
3) "Burnt by the Sun" - Nikita Mikhalkov's production, won Oscar as the best foreign film (in 1994 I think).
Best regards,
New World
