It was hilarious, but not very accurate. I don't expect accuracy from a film like that, but it's good to keep in mind. Beria was even worse than they depicted.

- cm2187 5y agoIf you want accuracy, a very good but slightly forgotten movie is a 1992 HBO movie called Stalin with Robert Duvall https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105462/ https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105462/
- 1cvmask 5y agoI don't think the film hid the sadistic side of Beria or his being a sexual predator. But maybe it was not so clear cut to all viewers as it was also a dark comedy with true gallows humor.
