MOVIES: The Death of Stalin

[dewline]

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!

Did you enjoy the film? and find it believable?

[dewline]

I did enjoy it...as far as it could be enjoyed.

The trouble is that it had too much of the ring of the truth behind the jokes.

Thank you for your impressions.

I was looking forward to seeing the film.
