Popcorn Culture - Review: The Trial of the Chicago 7

Telling the true story of the Chicago Seven, a group of anti–Vietnam War protesters charged with conspiracy and crossing state lines in 1969, The Trial of the Chicago 7 sees its writer and director Aaron Sorkin returning to the courtroom for a dramatic setting. It also boasts an all-star ensemble cast, including Eddie Redmayne, Sacha Baron Cohen, and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II. We discuss whether this film does its true-life origins justice.
