“The Stanley Milgram Story”
Yale University 1961. Stanley Milgram designs a psychology experiment that still resonates to this day in which people think they’re delivering painful electric shocks to an affable stranger strapped into a chair in another room. Despite his pleads for mercy the majority of subjects don’t stop the experiment administering what they think is a near-fatal electric shock simply because they’ve been told to do so. With Nazi Adolf Eichmann’s trial airing in living rooms across America Milgram strikes a nerve in popular culture and the scientific community with his exploration into people’s tendency to comply with authority. Celebrated in some circles he is also accused of being a deceptive manipulative monster but his wife Sasha stands by him through it all.
