This Ti
This week’s movie is The Trotsky. This movie is absolutely great. It’s not a Trotsky biopic, but a comedy set in modern day (well, 2009) Canada. It’s full of good lefty references including one to Battleship Potemkin’s famous Odessa steps scene. Which means Battleship Potemkin will probably be coming up soon, since I haven’t included it. This movie is hilarious fun, I highly recommend it. Unlike many movies on the left, it’s not depressing either which is what we need in this times of climate change and neoliberalism. I’m disappointed there hasn’t been a sequel, but I suppose this movie never would have even been made in the US. Hooray for Canada!
You can watch it free with commercials on Amazon, Tubi, and Vudu.
