Following the premiere of the Donald Trump biopic “The Apprentice” at the Cannes Film Festival, we break down who is playing whom in the tale of a young Donald Trump’s rise in ’70s New York.

The Apprentice, Ali Abbasi’s Palme d’Or contender about Donald Trump’s rise to power in 1970s New York, centers on the former president’s relationship with a lawyer and fixer who changed his life: Roy Cohn, a seasoned prosecutor who became his mentor, schooling him in the art of aggressive business dealings, pontificating to the press, and molding the truth to fit the narrative you’ve constructed for yourself.

After Cohn met the young Donald Trump and represented him in his battle against the justice department, the two men became fast friends, with Cohn introducing him to several powerful figures who would later pave his way to the presidency. He also instilled in him many of the life lessons that would go on to define Trump’s political career: namely, the need to attack relentlessly, never accept defeat, admit nothing, deny everything, and make your own reality.
