[B]Navalny[/B]. 2022.  Stumbled on this on HBO Max.  It's a documentary about Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny.  Couldn't be more timely.  It goes back to about 2019 or so.  He's an interesting and funny guy.  It's a damned shame he's not running Russia, the world would be a better place and the Russian and Ukranian people certainly would be.  He's a lawyer, and wanted to reform the government, founding the Anti Corruption Foundation and then entering politics. He has six million YouTube followers and is on TikTok as well.  The story is well told, exciting and frequently funny.  He speaks very good English and has a flair for curse words. His wife is lovely, and he's a fairly handsome guy with two kids so a naturally appealing political family.  The movie opens with him being interviewed in what seems to be an empty bar or restaurant.  He's asked about being worried the government would take him out.  Says it would be stupid, because he's a "famous guy".  Interviewer says, but you were wrong.  Yeah, he was wrong. There is a true crime element here, as they poisoned him, and the way they unravel that is fascinating.  Really enjoyable and interesting movie about an interesting guy.
