    Looks good!
    But how did it get a good review from the Guardian??? I bet they'll fix that.

      The Guardian gave it a good review because "that's not real socialism."

    It does look like a good movie but the lead quote suggests that the problem is Stalin rather than the system that propelled him to power. That may explain why the Guardian seems to be in favor of the movie. They gave up on Stalin as an appropriate communist leader long ago.
