Death of Stalin is 'comedy of hysteria'

Today

Available for over a year

We will probably never know how many people died under Stalin's reign of terror - some say 100 million. But however you slice it, Stalin was a monster - a mass murderer. Now there's a new film about him. It's called The Death of Stalin and it's funny. Here Armando Iannucci and Michael Palin discuss how they treated the subject.
