obey

For some reason, I thought of "Compliance".

Sometimes we can't explain these weak, dark parts of human nature, and even though many people later fall into self-blame and remorse, at the time, they were lambs to be slaughtered.

Or wonder why only that electrical engineer would say no? Just as we scoff at the victims who have been deceived by incomparably inferior deceit, I don't know what the experiment is ultimately pursuing. All these debates, discussions, and discoveries over and over again can't change maybe something hidden in our genes, just It’s like the inexplicable adjustment in the elevator following the direction everyone is standing in the film, but sometimes we blindly do trivial and boring actions, sometimes causing irreparable trauma, just like sending millions of Jews to the gas chambers Eichmann.

Going back to the film itself, it was dull, boring, lacking in climax and impact, and did not have the realism of a documentary. The director tried his best to create a calm and objective perspective to describe the sensational experiment at the time, but instead exploited the character's proper aura, struggle and even. Crazy, Winona Ryder, in addition to constantly showing her old beauty, even smiles so out of place, maybe in the movie, all the actors are showing how they don't "obey" the director. Electric shocks and screams make people feel on pins and needles. After tomorrow, maybe we still can't change our weaknesses.
