Midway through The Apprentice, the film shifts visually, suggesting Donald Trump's rise as a (television) star, merging a 1970s aesthetic with a future outlook.
The film's portrayal humanizes Trump, presenting him as a classic American striver, seeking wealth and status through his family connections and mentorship from Roy Cohn.
Despite Trump's campaign denouncing it as garbage, the movie reveals a bleak yet energetic account of his life, framed through a narrative of empowerment.
The Apprentice ultimately recounts a familiar American success story, echoing the themes of individual ambition and the pursuit of the shiny American dream.
