Russell Crowe and Rami Malek meet in Nuremberg next week 

James Vanderbilt's Nuremberg is a sombre and unsettling reconstruction of one of history's most haunting reckonings. Set in the shadow of the Second World War, the film thrusts viewers into the psychological and moral battlefield of the Nuremberg trials, where justice, guilt, and human conscience collide. 

Featuring Russel Crowe and Rami Malek, the movie is set to release on November 7 in the US.

Rami Malek delivers a tightly wound performance as Douglas M. Kelley, the American psychiatrist assigned to monitor the captured Nazi leaders. His sessions with Hermann Göring — portrayed with chilling charisma by Russell Crowe — become an unnerving duel between intellects, where manipulation and self-justification mask the horrors of the past.

Vanderbilt, popular for Zodiac, stages these encounters with a cold, surgical precision. The grandeur of the courtroom and the intimacy of the interrogation room echo the same question: can evil ever truly be understood, or merely observed?

Stylish yet grave, Nuremberg doesn't seek redemption — it exposes the cracks in the pursuit of it. Through Crowe's magnetic menace and Malek's quiet disintegration, the film transforms a historical trial into a psychological war, one that lingers long after the verdict is read.
