EXPERIMENTER<\/strong>
\nMagnolia Pictures<\/strong>
\nReviewed by: Harvey Karten for Shockya. Databased on Rotten Tomatoes.<\/strong>
\nGrade: B+<\/strong>
\nDirector: Michael Almereyda<\/strong>
\nScreenwriter:\u00a0 Michael Almereyda<\/strong>
\nCast:\u00a0 Peter Sarsgaard, Winona Ryder, Dennis Kaysberg, Jim Gaffigan<\/strong>
\nScreened at: Review 2, NYC, 8\/6\/15<\/strong>
\nOpens:\u00a0 October 16, 2015<\/strong><\/p>\n

We Americans like to think of ourselves as a nation of individualists, resistant to authority, \u201cDon\u2019t tread on me,\u201d The Marlboro Man. But some social psychologists think differently.\u00a0 Social psychologists deal with the behavior of people in groups, and one of the famous psychologists from the last century is Stanley Milgram (1933-1984). At the age of 28 he conducted a major endeavor in the field, one which was praised by many but led to his vilification by others.\u00a0 He\u2019s an ideal person for a movie characterization, and Michael Almereyda, who both wrote and directed \u201cExperimenter,\u201d captures the scientist in a biopic graced with a solid performance by the always reliable Peter Sarsgaard.<\/p>\n

Milgram conducted his experiment at just the right moment.\u00a0 In 1961, Adolf Eichmann stood trial in Jerusalem for the war crime of managing the transportation of millions of Jews to Hitler\u2019s death camps.\u00a0 As Eichmann dispassionately watched and listened as scores of Holocaust survivors testified to the horrors of the camps, he did not deny his role, nor did he offer an apology. His sole defense was that this was his job and he was just following orders (like a good German).\u00a0 Happily the court rejected the defense and Eichmann became the only person ever executed in Israel.<\/p>\n

This leaves us with the question: would you follow orders if they were given to you by a professor, a doctor, a scientist?\u00a0 Milgram signed up hundreds of test subjects, paying them in advance, stating that they could leave the experiment at any time without losing the money.\u00a0 Unbeknownst to the subjects, he used an actor to feign emotions ranging from discomfort to extreme pain.\u00a0 The subject, called the teacher, was instructed to give quiz questions to the learner. When the learner gave the wrong answer, the teacher was ordered to administer a shock, starting at 25 volts and working up to 450.\u00a0 The actor would feign extreme pain, complaining \u201clet me outta here,\u201d when the voltage got high.\u00a0 The teacher would inevitably turn to the scientist, asking to be excused, only to be given the response, \u201cPlease continue,\u201d or \u201cThe experiment gives you no choice.\u201d\u00a0 Sixty-five percent of teachers carried out the authority figures commands, all the way to 450 volts.\u00a0 At that point, the teacher was made aware of the nature of the experiment; that nobody felt the shocks after all.<\/p>\n

For this, Milgram, who sat in the background, interviewed the subjects to find out why they were willing to inflict pain, inevitably getting the response, \u201cWe had no choice.\u201d\u00a0 Of course they did.\u00a0 As a result, we now teach in ethics courses that it is OK to obey an immoral or illegal order.<\/p>\n

Milgram, however, was denied tenure at Harvard because of the controversy, as people throughout the land complained that he manipulated his subjects.\u00a0 What these critics may not know is that a good deal of experimentation in social psychology involve manipulation, many dealing with the need of people to conform to the group.\u00a0 We in the theater audience witness such an offering in this biopic.<\/p>\n

Almereyda appears to stick closely to the real-life adventure of Dr. Milgram, even fitting Sarsgaard with the kind of beard that Milgram wore when he took up an offer of immediate tenure and a full professorship at City University Graduate Center in New York (my alma mater).\u00a0 Ditto his relationship with his wife, played by Winona Ryder, whose number he received from her at a gathering and who did not remarry despite Milgram\u2019s premature death from a heart attack. The writer-director also uses a theatrical technique of breaking down the fourth wall, as Sarsgaard regularly talks directly to the theater audience.<\/p>\n

This most important and famous experiment in psychology is given an authentic and frequently exciting biopic.\u00a0 We root for those representing thirty-five percent of subjects who refuse to follow immoral orders and who storm out of the room.\u00a0 Would that all members of the S.S. had minds of their own and had refused to follow the insane orders of the Nazi party.\u00a0 And when Donald Trump announced that John McCain was no hero when he endured captivity in Vietnam, we would wish that the crowd would have pelted the builder with tomatoes rather than give him a standing ovation.<\/p>\n

Rated R.\u00a0 108 minutes.\u00a0 \u00a9 Harvey Karten, Member, New York Film Critics Online<\/strong><\/p>\n
