In the film “The accountant”, a man on the autism spectrum is a number cruncher by day, while involving himself in seedier activities at night.
This scene occurs in a conference room after the lead character, Christian (Ben Affleck), is hired to review a company’s financial records. He spends an entire night writing out figures, using whiteboards and eventually the room’s glass walls.
For the scene, Mr. O’Connor wanted to take the audience inside the mind of the character. During an interview, he explained how he used a real forensic accountant to get the numbers right and also a creative approach to covering walls with tidy handwriting.
