The Regime (2024)
Ever heard of Ceausescu?

All the other reviews apparently completely missed the point of this show. One must assume that they probably never heard of, and certainly never had to deal with, the Nikolai Ceausescu regime. Winslett captures the mercurial insanity of Romania's long-time dictator, with the kow-towing sycophants that surrounded him, the ostentatious palace, the complete and paranoiac disregard for the people and economy of the country. It will be interesting to see if it gets even more absurd in upcoming episodes, mirroring the murderous ego-centric eccentricities of that megalomaniac. In fact, it is about time someone mocked him.
