About This Movie

The documentary's tone is both clinical and intimate, capturing Skinner's eccentricities and the controversial nature of his experiments. You’ve got this eclectic mix of archival footage—his work with rats and those bizarre pigeon-guided bombs—and personal moments that peel back layers of his life. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the viewer to absorb Skinner's theories while juxtaposing them against historical events and debates, especially his surprising exchanges with Dennis Hopper. The film doesn’t shy away from the complexity of Skinner's philosophy, presenting a nuanced portrait that’ll intrigue anyone interested in the intersection of psychology and culture.
