The Trial of the Chicago 7

"It is perfectly understandable for those who don't like this movie: it's stiff, more than two hours almost only with courtroom scenes and an exaggerated simplification of the story and characters - Sorkin changed or left out a lot, mainly in relation to the behavior of the defendants. However, fans of courtroom films should delight in these two hours following a political trial and all its strangeness, bizarreness and excesses. The dynamism comes from an interesting editing (although somewhat beaten), the didacticism is concentrated in a single character and Sorkin hits the mark in problematizing this incessant and interminable search in History for communists, rebels and the like. It is far, very far from being a perfect movie. But it touches the emotions and, even so different from the original case, it was able to bring the essence of this bizarre trial that entered History."
