Compliance
When a movie is "based on a true story," what typically results is a generously fictionalized account of a salacious news tidbit. Compliance takes a different road: It doesn't speculate about its characters or their motivations, and it doesn't flesh out the facts. It simply recounts the improbable events that occurred in Mount Washington, Kentucky, in 2004, when a prank caller to a McDonald's posed as a police officer and convinced the manager to strip search—and worse—a female employee.
