Police reportedly arrived at a historic movie theater in Moscow on the second screening of “The Death of Stalin” on Friday afternoon after Russia’s Culture Ministry warned it could fine cinemas for showing the banned comedy.

The ministry revoked the screening license of the satirical film about the Soviet dictator’s death two days ahead of its nationwide release this week. The Pioner Cinema was the only cinema in Russia that decided to defy the ministry’s ruling and allow the film’s premiere on Thursday, the state-run RIA Novosti news agency reported.
