&gt; &quot;That isn&#x27;t a story they want to tell. __period__ Why would they? What benefit of mass entertainment would it serve? Hint: Look at the etymology of `entertain`.&quot;<p>Tesla was an interesting character and had an interesting life. If you&#x27;re concerned about whether his story could be dramatised, it&#x27;s worth remembering we had films about Stephen Hawking and Alan Turing last year, both of which were successful at the box office. I see no reason why we couldn&#x27;t do the same for Tesla.
