QUIET
RAGE: THE STANFORD PRISON EXPERIMENT
(VHS) 1992. 50 min. sd. color. #40000
This documentary of a classic experiment in social psychology began on
Sunday morning August 14, 1971 and had to be called off after only six
days because the situation proved more powerful than anyone had
imagined. College student volunteers, selected because they were
intelligent, normal, healthy, law-abiding citizens, began behaving
sadistically if they were mock guards - or pathologically if they were
mock prisoners. Original archive footage and new film capture the
essence of this transformation of human nature and the unexpected power
of social situations.
