Сто години след убийството на Распутин в масовото съзнание той все още е олицетворение на злото, романтично-демоничен герой от попкултурата и образ с разнообразни превъплъщения в социалния, религиозния и политическия живот на съвременна Русия.

Това убийство, парадоксално, е посрещнато с възхвали и възторг, с очакването, че така ще се решат проблемите на страната. Но Распутин не е причината за ... |
