Just got home from seeing The Death of Stalin. The Bytowne was packed, audience-wise. The film was a weirdly effective mix of comedy, drama and documentary.
The line that made me laugh? Khrushchev commenting that "now we can turn the corner".
Sad, angry laughter.
Oh, and I find out at the end that this is adapted from a French graphic novel!
