Beautiful new IMAX movie now playing to celebrate the 100th birthday of our National Park Service. For a taste, watch this short trailer, narrated by Robert Redford. Then watch for the movie in a theater near you. I plan to do just that…and continue to enjoy the gift of our parks.
How quickly do we turn on each other? What does power bring out in us? These are two of the questions startlingly answered in the newest movie version of the book that reported the real-life Stanford Prison Experiment. The actual question the study sought to answer was what are the psychological effects on captives and their overseers. This 1971 experiment lasted only 6 of its planned 14 days, for reasons that become obvious when you see the film.
Here’s a trailer to give you a flavor of what to expect. Be prepared to be shocked and disturbed.
