The Death of Stalin
“He’s dead, and the backstabbing has just begun.”
When dictator Joseph Stalin dies, his parasitic cronies square off in a frantic power struggle to become the next Soviet leader. As they bumble, brawl and back-stab their way to the top, the question remains — just who is running the government?
Directed by Armando Iannucci, Jean-Christophe Colson, Giles Daoust
