Two Psycological Movies I Want To Recommend

I like watching movies! One presentation  reminded me of two movies.

One is "es". The plot is that 24 people who participate in one psychological experiment for money are divided into 12 guards and 12 prisoners and live in jail for a week or more. They have fun at first because they can get much money just by living in each role even though they are in jail. But they are getting into the roles gradually like they are really in jail.

This is fiction but based on the fact of the experiment conducted in Stanford university.

Group psychology is sometimes so scary. Even though each person is ordinary and thinks their minds are under control, they are not because group psychology is not a simple total of people's minds. As a result, people can come up with something the individual from them doesn't ever. In addition, a role has huge influence on people. Even a very gentle person could be a beast in certain environment. So I thought the political mistake happened before people in that age knew it. And such fear comes to us suddenly.

Another is "The Wave". This is like a high school version of "es". Is it possible to do autocracy like Hitler?

That is the first question in one class of one high school. In the start of the experiment of it, students have little passion. But once the teacher as a dictator arranges things and orders the students to do them, his students are being an army and going too extreme.

Like "es", you can also see how people are subjected to the situation in this movie. Although the situation in this movie is open physically because this is a story in a high school class, I felt it was much close mentally. That is because a student can't escape if he/she wants to.

If you have a chance, watch!!
