What the film is about
A classroom in upstate New York, sometime in the early 1950s. A man stands at the lectern and tells his students something that stops the room cold. The men who built the Nazi regime — the ones he spent months interviewing inside a German prison — were not monsters from another world. Instead, they were ordinary people with ambition, weak ethics, and a nationalism that let them justify almost anything. That man was Dr. Douglas Kelley, the Army psychiatrist at the heart of the 2025 film Nuremberg, and his conclusion has troubled historians ever since.
Nuremberg (2025), directed by James Vanderbilt and starring Rami Malek, Russell Crowe, and Michael Shannon, follows the months surrounding the historic Nuremberg Trials. Five very different characters move through the same impossible moment in history. One is a psychiatrist who needs to understand evil. Another is a war criminal who refuses to admit guilt. A third is a prosecutor who builds something that has never existed before. The other two are quieter — a grounded soldier who keeps everything human, and a psychologist who documents what everyone else walks past.
Each of them handles justice, power, and truth in a completely different way. That difference is exactly what makes this quiz interesting.
