Synopsis – What to Expect from “Experimenter”
Experimenter is a 2015 American biographical drama film directed by Michael Almereyda and based on the life of renowned social psychologist Stanley Milgram. The film follows Milgram’s controversial 1961 experiment which tested the willingness of ordinary people to obey orders from an authority figure even if it meant hurting another person.
The film opens with a recreation of Milgram’s experiment in which a man (Peter Sarsgaard) is asked to administer electric shocks to a stranger (John Leguizamo) in a separate room. As the experiment progresses, the man becomes increasingly uncomfortable with the situation and ultimately refuses to continue.
We then move to Milgram’s life outside the lab. He is married and has two children, and his wife (Winona Ryder) is supportive of his work. However, the rest of the world is not so accepting. Milgram is vilified by the press and his peers for his controversial experiment, and his career is in jeopardy.
Milgram continues to pursue his research, however, and he eventually wins a prestigious award from the American Psychological Association. This brings him some much-needed recognition and acceptance from the scientific community.
The film then shifts to a retrospective look at Milgram’s life. Milgram reflects on his work and the impact it had on society. He also reflects on the personal cost of his work, and how it affected his relationships with his family and colleagues.
Ultimately, Experimenter
