"The Secret of Nikola Tesla"
1980
Directed by Kristo Papic

A USA/Yugoslavia co-production, featuring Orson Welles as J.P. Morgan, focuses on the character of Nikola Tesla, one of the leading scientific geniuses of the 19th century, whose experiments with alternating current were crucial in the development of electronic technology.  He finds himself locked in a battle with Thomas Edison, George Westinghouse and financier J.P. Morgan. Tesla is presented as a tortured, brilliant and complex man of sometimes maddening manifestations (he claimed to be in communication with beings from outer space).  A compelling psychological drama.  In English.  105 minutes.

"An excellent docu-drama on Tesla. Great acting, and a good look into the AC vs DC electrification of the world. Also a peek into Tesla's other (more far reaching) experiments with wireless electrical transmission. This should be on TV!!"
