BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

THE DEATH OF STALIN Movie Review

The one-liners fly as fast as political fortunes fall in this uproarious, wickedly irreverent satire from Armando Iannucci (Veep, In the Loop). Moscow, 1953: when tyrannical dictator Joseph Stalin drops dead, his parasitic cronies square off in a frantic power struggle to be the next Soviet leader. Among the contenders are the dweeby Georgy Malenkov ( Jeffrey Tambor ), the wily Nikita Khrushchev ( Steve Buscemi ), and the sadistic secret police chief Lavrentiy Beria ( Simon Russell Beale ). But as they bumble, brawl, and backstab their way to the top, just who is running the government? Combining palace intrigue with rapid-fire farce, this audacious comedy is a bitingly funny takedown of bureaucratic dysfunction performed to the hilt by a sparkling ensemble cast.
