Science on Screen: The Killing (PG) + Intro from Ron Dickman

DESCRIPTION

Physics professor Ron Dickman gives a presentation on determinism and randomness before a screening of Stanley Kubrick's classic drama.

Synopsis:
The mastermind, one Johnny Clay (Sterling Hayden), has assembled with chronometric precision, a series of events that will wreak chaos at a race track, setting the scene for a flawless robbery. Clay frames to use and control chaos, but greed and insecurity, and even the escape of a small poodle, end up trapping him and annihilating his colleagues.
