Review of The Trial of the Chicago 7 (2020) by Mahmus — 19 Oct 2020
The Trial of the Chicago 7 deals with complex and timely topics with enough nuance and wit to make what could've been an overly overwhelming movie (which at times it is) into a moving and inspiring piece of courtroom cinema with incredible performances from its excellent ensemble cast.
( Best Supporting Actor Oscar winner Sacha Baron Cohen anyone? ).
Sorkin's direction can be a bit flat, but he still more than makes up for it with his electrifying dialogue and amazingly stylish editing (also, I'm just biased towards court dramas).
