TESLA

(directed by Michael Almereyda)

Who’s in it?

Ethan Hawke, Eve Hewson and Kyle McLachlan. What’s it about?

The film is a quirky biographical look into the life of Nikola Tesla (Hawke), a brilliant mind and inventor, who finds himself at odds with another great mind, Thomas Edison (McLachlan). Along his journey, he meets Anne Morgan and forms a connection with her all the while paving the way for innovations yet to be invented or discovered. Why watch it?

First, to learn that Tesla isn’t just a car. Second, to realise that Thomas Edison was kinda a jerk.
