The Death of Stalin (2017)

When Joseph Stalin dies in 1953, his entourage clashes for power in bitter terms. As various fights occur and betrayals are committed, the real question that hovers over the story is who is in charge of the government. This political satire from director Armando Iannucci (creator of the series Veep) is a funny, dark and highly entertaining comedy, with a riveting script full of witty dialogue and a stellar ensemble cast led by Steve Buscemi.
