>The Death of Stalin is a forthcoming Franco-British satirical period comedy-drama film directed by Armando Iannucci which chronicles the events that transpired after the death of Joseph Stalin in 1953.
Why the fuck would they be speaking Russian in a Franco-British film. That's like saying that The Fast and the Furious 3 is stupid as fuck because nobody is speaking Japanese.

Fucking Monty Python alumni it's basically mandatory viewing
>>3293357
I'm just happy they worked in the bit about Beria being the first to kiss Stalin's body when he laid in state.
>>3293357
The guy with the scar and all the medals is Zhukov, right? Sorry, don't recognize any of the others.
So is this a Monthly Python thread now?

Unfunny cringe.

Because Stalin is still a national hero in Russia and they wouldn't celebrate his death. In Russia, Stalin is not seen as a monster but rather a strongman figure who saved the country from Hitler. The general attitude is "yeah he was an asshole, but he still saved Russia from being final solution'd."
>>3293357
Not opposed to them but that trailer doesn't look particularly funny.
>>3298025
They actually put up posters with his face on buses and shop windows all over the city during IIRC 2010 Victory Day Parade - the only one that had Americans marching through Red Square.
Too fucking bad I don't' have those photos anymore.
>>3298043
I don't consider that even remotely surprising so you're good, I don't need proof. Every country gives its "national heroes" a pass on whatever bullshit they did. Americans don't hate George Washington for owning slaves, Black Africans don't hate Mandela for being a terrorist, British don't hate Churchill for starving Indians, and Chinese don't hate Mao for starving......everybody.
I'm loving that Zhukov.
t. Russian.
