I think The Death of Stalin was accurate in the sense that despite the image we in the West had of the Soviet Leadership as this dour, ruthlessly efficient, focused methodical group of supermen, scratch the surface and it was a rollicking fustercluck.

The film captured that nicely I think.

Thank you. I think that is a good summery of what the situation likely was.
