Edison vs westinghouse?
Really? Wow, it's like you ill get aids if you utter the name Nikola Tesla. If you're talking about the inventor of DC electricity why not talk about the inventor of AC not simply it's financial backer. What is the problem? If you read about Tesla's life then you know what the problem is. But we will have none of this.
An interesting story filmed by good hand.........
Prior to see the movie i have never heard about this fascinating story of conflict and trade between Edison and Westinghouse. I found the story very much interesting and enjoyed every part of this. The whole team must be appreciated for their excellent try to transform this plot into a enjoyable , slow paced drama. There are many small battle which sometimes remain undecided..sometimes goes in favour of either one. With these personal and economic battle the movie moves towards the end. Good to see these type of drama movies in between other type of movies. This is totally different from many other movies of 2017.
