Apt Pupil

Apt Pupil

1998

Todd Bowden is a college student studying the Holocaust who discovers that his neighbour is a death camp criminal hiding out in America. Bowden makes him an offer; tell me what they don't tell us in school and I won't turn you in, and the old man agrees, but then as the revelations begin to affect Todd's health and work, school counsellor Mr French becomes suspicious. Based on the novella by Stephen King.

If you don't believe in the existence of evil, you've got a lot to learn.
