In 2019 this tale of peoples’ willingness to go along with instructions from authority figures seems near-impossible to swallow against the context of social-engineering-awareness which we live day to day in financial services careers. And yet it’s a dramatisation of a true story. Not an enjoyable film, and often it feels like not a well-made one, but then you can’t criticise a film because the true story it’s based on seems hard to believe. Controversial. I think, probably worthwhile.
