The Robert H. Jackson Center and the Reg Lenna Center for the Arts will present a special community screening of Nuremberg (2025) on Friday, January 30, 2026, followed by a live talk-back with author Jack El-Hai, whose book, The Nazi and the Psychiatrist, inspired the film.
Doors open at 5:00 p.m. and the film begins at 6:00 p.m. at the Reg Lenna Center for the Arts, 116 E. Third Street, Jamestown. The screening will be followed by a conversation with Jack El-Hai, who will discuss the true historical events behind the film and the continuing significance of the Nuremberg Trials.
Directed by James Vanderbilt and starring Russell Crowe, Rami Malek, Michael Shannon, Colin Hanks, and John Slattery, Nuremberg dramatizes the true story of U.S. Army psychiatrist Dr. Douglas M. Kelley, who examined Nazi war criminals awaiting trial in 1945. His psychological interviews with figures such as Hermann Göring raised enduring questions about guilt, responsibility, and the nature of evil.
Robert H. Jackson, as played by Michael Shannon, is a key figure in the story and provides the legal framework, rationale, and prosecution for the International Military Tribunal, which opened 80 years ago on November 20, 1945.
Tickets for the January 30 screening and discussion will be available through the Reg Lenna Center for the Arts box office and online at: https://ci.ovationtix.com/36182/production/1255745?performanceId=11713045
