Fantastic satire of the Soviet totalitarian system
The Death of Stalin is a satire of the Soviet system. It plays upon the fear of the totalitarian system with Stalin at the pinnacle of power. For instance a radio director is asked by Stalin for a copy of a concert but it wasn’t recorded so the director tells all the musicians and audience to re-do the entire event while telling them not to worry no one will be killed as a result. Another time it takes a committee to decide to call a doctor but that causes further problems because all the good doctors in Moscow have been killed as a threat to the state so they have to vote again whether to call a bad doctor or not. It takes a committee to do this because everyone was afraid to make a decision without Stalin. That raises the dilemma of the story which is how will the system perpetuate itself after Stalin’s death?<br /><br />There is some really good writing involved. It reminds me a bit of a Monty Python skit. The ensemble cast is great as well. Some are yes men one moment and schemers the next. Others are blowhards while others are snivelers. The standouts are Steve Buscemi as Nikita Khrushchev one of the main schemers, Simon Russell as NKVD chief Lavrenti Beria who wants to kill everyone, Jason Isaacs as General Georgy Zhukov who is the tough guy soldier and Jeffrey Tambor as Georgy Malenkov who is completely clueless.
