The Death of Stalin

From Emmy winning*, Oscar nominated** creator Armando Iannucci, The Death of Stalin is a fearlessly funny parody of Cold War Russia, with a striking similarity to today's world scene. When the tyrannical ruler Stalin dies, his surviving Soviet comrades desperately maneuver to save the Union and most importantly their own skins. Rolling Stone calls the film a "brilliant satire from a crack ensemble"' (including Emmy and Golden Globe winner***Steve Buscemi, Simon Russell Beale, Andrea Riseborough and Michael Palin). Proof that comedy, like politics, is all in the execution.
