MR. JONES is a masterful historical drama about Gareth Jones, a British journalist in 1933 who travels to Moscow to interview murderous communist dictator Joseph Stalin. Jones wants to ask Stalin where he’s getting the money to build up the Soviet Union’s military and industrial strength. Jones travels to Ukraine and discovers that Stalin’s tyrannical rule has created a famine there. He exposes the truth back in London, but Walter Duranty, the notorious New York Times writer bribed by Stalin to make Stalin’s regime look good, successfully but falsely discredits Jones. Can Jones reclaim his reputation?
