Times article
[edit]This article by Anthony Loyd in The Times (22 February 2022) looks into some issues that the article should maybe touch on, namely some controversy about the real-life right-wing gang past of lead actor Serhii Filimonov (uk:Філімонов_Сергій_Федорович), and whether
the public acclaim and awards given to Filimonov for his Rhino role, with scarcely any reference to his previous history, have served to condone right-wing violence and inspire its followers.
According to Sensov
[Filimonov] had this animal power from his football hooliganism past. I need someone with the past of a predator
-- and someone who had experienced a similar journey of change.
However according to an analyst of vigilante gangs and the far right
The issue of Filimonov and Honor
(uk:Гонор (рух))goes to the core of the way in which far-right organisations and individuals seek to make a hateful creed mainstream, either through MMA (mixed martial arts), sometimes heavy metal music, or in this case, a film that wins international awards.
The piece also includes some reflections from Filimonov himself
Might be worth a look, and covering in the article. Jheald (talk) 14:29, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
- Agreed, this article should have a controversies section because of the presence of Filimonov in it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:8109:1A3F:C906:DE72:A0EA:34A4:5991 (talk) 11:03, 6 July 2022 (UTC)
