TV & Movies Film pairs narrative reenactments of wiretapped phone calls with traditional documentary elements Netflix has released a new trailer for its film on the 2019 college
admission scandal, _Operation Varsity Blues_, set to premiere March 17th. The film is primarily centered around narrative reenactments of the FBI’s wiretapped phone calls between Rick
Singer, the scheme’s mastermind, and the wealthy parents who were willing to do whatever it took to get their kids into elite colleges. Matthew Modine stars as Singer, and the new trailer
finds him peddling his “side door” admission tactics, which included everything from fudging SAT and ACT exam results to completely making up athletic accomplishments. TRENDING STORIES While
the reenactments will be at the heart of _Operation Varsity Blues_, the movie will also feature more traditional documentary elements. The trailer teases an array of interviews with people
who delve into the intricacies of Singer’s scheme, as well as its cultural significance. “In America, we love the wealthy and we hate the wealthy,” says one interviewee. “They disgust us and
they fascinate us.” _Operation Varsity Blues_ was directed by Chris Smith and Jon Karmen, who also helmed the Netflix documentary on the Fyre Festival.
