Until about a month ago, “The Apprentice” didn’t even have a distributor. Now, Danish Iranian director Ali Abbasi’s controversial Donald Trump origin story, which has drawn the ire of the Trump campaign, is being released less than four weeks before the U.S. election.

Written by Gabriel Sherman and starring an ingeniously cast trio of Sebastian Stan as Trump, Jeremy Strong as Cohn and Maria Bakalova as Ivana Trump, the film failed to get picked up at Cannes in May. That was surely due at least in part to a cease and desist letter from Trump lawyers. But the core of the film is his relationship with Cohn, whom a young Trump, son of Queens developer Fred Trump, meets in the ’70s. “Anybody who’s anybody comes here,” he tells an uninterested date in an exclusive Manhattan club. “They say I’m the youngest person ever admitted.”
The younger Trump is portrayed here as a bit of a charmer — there are even comparisons to Robert Redford — with lovingly tended hair, aching to succeed and please his exacting father. Stan, on a roll after the recentabout a wholly different kind of transformation, gives a nuanced performance that manages to capture Trumpian qualities but not to mimic. Although familiar mannerisms and speech patterns emerge as Trump ages, this is no “Saturday Night Live” skit.
