## Celluloid verdict

Vicious, sharply acted and uncomfortably plausible, The Audacity lands real blows on tech's messiah complex even when its misanthropy crowds out the drama — Magnussen and Goldberg keep it compulsively watchable.

## Synopsis

Palo Alto therapist JoAnne Felder counsels the fragile egos of Silicon Valley — until data-mining CEO Duncan Park blackmails her into mining a patient of her own: Carl Bardolph, the reclusive mega-investor they share. Jonathan Glatzer's satire-drama plays the confidentiality breach as a slow-motion ethical collapse, skewering the self-styled inventors of the future while taking their damage — and the damage they do — entirely seriously.
