You are expected to watch the film “The Experiment” 2010 by Paul Scheuring. There is a review provided for you which I found a little off the main idea.The idea behind the film is how conditioning ties in with control. Through conditioning (which is the money in the film), one can still chose to use moral reasoning to change the outcomes.

To get it straight, the issue here is the relation between control and savage actions.

After you watch the film please respond to the prompt in about 350 words.

1.       In your opinion, what part of the film includes the actual collapse of the moral values?

2.       Who is the most influential character in your opinion? Why?

3.       What problem about the human nature was brought up? Why? (director’s intention?) Please read some reviews to be able to answer this question.

4.       In your opinion, what is the role of fear in order to supress human actions? Do you see it as a long lasting solution?

5.       How did you find the ending? Please explain.
