Mr. Jones: New movie about the Holodomor

Post by Ken »

Last night while cruising through Amazon Prime I stumbled on a new (well 2019) move about the Holodomor called Mr. Jones. I watched it last night. Main character is a young British reporter who stumbles on the Holodomor while reporting in Russia and then has to fight to get the truth out. Apparently based on a true story and actual reporter. I know there are some here who are interested in that part of history as it affected Russian Mennonites so I thought I'd post the link:

That's ironic. Yesterday I watched a documentary on Stalin's Cannibal Island. That was jarring to say the least.
