Indignation
Directed by James Schamus
2016
Indigation, based on Philip Roth’s 2008 novel of the same name, is a drama about a working class Jew from Newark, New Jersey attending the fictional Winesburg College in Ohio. The best thing that can be said about Indignation is that nothing in it is terrible. The film occasionally shows signs of life, but spends most of its run time in staid resignation to convention.
Would see.

In what ways does it adhere to convention?

It follows almost all the expected beats of a mid-twentieth-century period drama, and it doesn’t make any interesting comment on Roth’s book.
