The movie experimenter starring Peter Sarsguard screenplays the story of social psychologist Stanly Milgram and his study regarding obedience in society.

This film even made a point of explaining the different styles

In Stanley Milgram’s “Behavioral Study of Obedience” experiment the research indicates that authority figures can cause the average person to commit immoral acts such as
