4. The Current War (2017)
This historical drama recounts the fierce battle between Thomas Edison (Benedict Cumberbatch) versus George Westinghouse (Michael Shannon) over electrifying America. The movie narrates how the battle of direct current from Edison and alternating current from Westinghouse goes, with a vital role by Nikola Tesla to end the story. Despite having to wait to hit the theatres, the movie's Director's Cut was well appreciated in its well-balanced view on innovation, ambition, and ethics. It gives a really thought-provoking look into how science and commerce intertwine and shape the world we live in today.
