Most of this was new to me, Bernie Madoff being only a name on the news some years ago. The film is rather slow and painstaking, ultimately representing a serious attempt at understanding what makes someone like that tick. I was left with the idea that Mr. Madoff was essentially incapable of true empathy with his fellow humans, and that this is a kind of serious personality disorder. Three of the people whose lives he completely destroyed were those closest to him and who loved and trusted him totally: his wife and his two sons.
