The Death of Stalin
Available on
Stalin’s death might not seem like a natural fit for a scabrously funny farce, but there lies the genius of Scottish satirist Armando Iannucci. With a top tier cast of British actors (Andrea Riseborough, Rupert Friend and Paddy Considine are standouts) and an endlessly quippy script, he concocts a Molotov cocktail of a movie.
