KHODORKOVSKY
November 30th, 2011
KHODORKOVSKY- 2011. Synopsis by Rotten Tomatoes. “Mikhail Khodorkovsky was once the richest man in Russia. Today, he’s one of the world’s most famous political prisoners. A story of Shakespearean proportions, The New York Times has reported on Khodorkovsky in both its news and op-ed pages. Fascinating interviews with Khodorkovsky (sometimes sitting in a glass box in the courtroom), members of his family, and others portray a country transformed from its moribund Communist past to one in which power-hungry politicians are abetted by a corrupt, drunken and cynical younger generation. Stark black and white animated sequences help tell an amazing back-story that plays like a political thriller.” Very good reviews. TRDB.
12/2/11- Non descript review in today’s NY Times. TRDB.
