James Vanderbilt’s gripping real-life legal thriller about the trial of the century is based on Jack El-Hai’s densely titled 2013 book The Nazi and the Psychiatrist: Hermann Göring, Dr. Douglas M. Kelley and the Fatal Meeting of Minds at the End of WWII. Powerhouse performances by Russell Crowe as Göring, Rami Malek as the chief psychiatrist of Nuremberg prison, and Michael Shannon and Richard E. Grant as the American and British prosecutors, distinguish this historical drama about the decision to put crimes against humanity on trial.
