Movie Night: Sneakers

Connect. Share. Learn.

ATTENTION ALL DATA AND ANALYTICS PROFESSIONALS!
Sneakers (1992) is a fun caper/heist movie with cryptography driving the action.  With a phenomenal cast and Dr Leonard Adleman as a technical consultant, the film has withstood the test of time.  Sneakers possesses a freshness that belies its nearly 3-decade-old birth certificate, and displays the commitment to technical accuracy you would expect from Dr Adleman (the “A” in RSA Encryption).  Billed as a comedy (Dan Aykroyd is one of the stars, after all), today’s audiences will not only enjoy the light-hearted script and interplay between the motley crew of characters, but also delight in the sight of phones with cords and the width of Timothy Busfield’s tie.
It wouldn’t be a TDWI event, though, without some educational element.  Our movie night will be introduced by a practicing security professional who will share his insights to the state of the art at the time the movie was released – what was real, what was envisioned that’s around the corner today, and where did the script writers take a little license to have fun and to advance the plot.
