My blog reviews movies as political, historical or social commentary with intentional disregard for their artistic or cinematic value. One foe of American political scientists and economists is that they ignore movies as sources to inform them on changes in American culture, view exoticism as a hallmark of "foreigness" and, at the same time, impart American values and judgment to foreign movies.

Death of Stalin
Primitive romp, yet closely following Khruschev's memoirs. Bold shaven Steve Buscemi is believable as Khrushev despite great disparity in heights but the further the narrative is from the main character, the more it is slides into a bad caricature.
