Actors to play stanley mail
Stanley Milgram, the American psychologist who conducted the famous Milgram experiment, has been portrayed by several actors in various films and TV shows. Here are a few examples:
- John Rubin in "The Act of Killing" (2012) - This documentary film features reenactments of the Milgram experiment, with Indonesian death squad leaders playing the roles of both the experimenter and the subjects.
- Michael Alig in "Party Monster" (2003) - Although not a direct portrayal of Milgram, Alig's character, a club promoter, is inspired by the psychologist's work and is shown conducting a similar experiment.
- David Strathairn in "The Manchurian Candidate" (2004) - Strathairn plays a character who is subjected to a brainwashing experiment similar to the Milgram experiment, although the film takes creative liberties with the concept.
- John Krasinski in "A Quiet Place" (2018) - Krasinski's character, Lee, is a father who conducts an experiment on his children to test their obedience, inspired by the Milgram experiment.
It's worth noting that there hasn't been a direct biopic or film about Stanley Milgram's life, so these portrayals are more inspired by his work than a direct depiction of the man himself.
