The story of how a young Donald Trump started his real estate business in 1970s and 1980s New York with the help of infamous lawyer Roy M. Cohn.

It is far more nuanced and complex
The title "The Apprentice" refers to both Donald Trump’s television show and Trump’s relationship with his mentor Roy Cohn. The film is neither a throwaway piece nor a glowing account. The first half of the film takes place in 1973. Donald Trump is collecting rent from deceased tenants. The Justice Department has sued him and his father for housing discrimination. Their lawyers urge them to settle and move on.
Trump opens his namesake Tower
But then Trump, 27, meets Roy Cohn. Cohn, a shadowy figure on the fringes of right-wing politics (he made his name as the lead lawyer in Joseph McCarthy’s communist witch hunt), recommends that the Trumps take the initiative and challenge the federal government. Under Cohn’s leadership, the case is settled without admitting wrongdoing. Cohn also guides Trump through the machinations of New York politics, helping him take over the boarded-up Commodore Hotel, obtain tax breaks from the city government, and eventually turn the property into a Hyatt hotel at Grand Central Station. Along the way, Cohn teaches the impressionable Trump his three rules: 1) attack, attack, attack, 2) deny everything, concede nothing, 3) no matter what, always claim victory. The latter half of the film takes place in the early 1980s.
But Cohn’s influence eventually fades
He becomes convinced that Atlantic City’s casinos are his route to untold riches. And he hires a writer to write “The Art of the Deal.” By this point, he has fully mastered the art of self-promotion. At its center is “The Apprentice”; it’s an origin story. Iranian-Danish director Ali Abbasi (“Holy Spider,” “Border”) and “Vanity Fair”; author Gabriel Sherman argues convincingly that Trump was shaped, almost created, by Roy Cohn. As Trump’s star rises in the 1980s, Cohn falls into disgrace (he’s been banned for stealing from clients) and marginalization. He eventually dies of AIDS (though he claimed until his last breath that he had liver cancer).
The acting here is superb
By the time “The Art of the Deal” is published, Trump has decided that Cohn’s three rules and his own reputation were based on Trump’s ideas all along. Director Abbasi also points out the strange combination of factors that helped Trump thrive: a ruthless winner-take-all version of capitalism that idolizes the successful; a legal system easily manipulated by the wealthy to crush their opponents or delay their own day of reckoning (after screening at Cannes, this film received a “cease and desist” order from Trump’s lawyers); an American political system that has no idea how to constrain an individual operating by Cohn’s three rules. As Roy Cohn, Jeremy Strong (Kendall on the TV series “Succession”) is simply mesmerizing. It convincingly embodies the internal conflicts of Cohn, a lawyer who shows total contempt for the legal system, a Jewish man who embraces anti-Semitism, a closeted gay man who publicly denigrates homosexuality at every opportunity.
