First viewing experience - The Trial of the Seven Gentlemen is probably a movie with a better online viewing experience
I started TSN a few years ago, but I didn't keep up the first time, and the second time I still needed to pause to keep up with the rhythm of the script.
After a few years, I watched trial7 again, and found that my English still didn’t improve much. I needed to pause and play backwards to keep up...

Alan Sorkin's long-awaited historical legal film recreates the pre-convicted and manipulated trial after the anti-Vietnam War movement in 1968. The filming is very neat, the court debate and the past flashbacks are cross-narrated, the lines are still as sharp and sonorous as always, but unfortunately the audio-visual language is still relatively rigid, the group portraits are focused, and some characters are not portrayed as flesh and blood, but the performances of several old actors Convincing (Cohen, Rylance, Michael Keaton, and Frank Langella as the judge). Launched at this time, it is quite intentional to use the past to satirize the present, hoping to turn the tide at a critical moment. (8.0/10)

Like a political essay, arguing about whether it is on the surface or not, without the slightest attempt to penetrate the hearts of the characters, everyone is an empty speech machine that can't stop. This is not a movie, it is clearly a spit meeting that is not funny at all.
The Trial of the Chicago 7 quotes
-
Abbie Hoffman: Winning elections, that's the first thing on your wish list? Equality, justice, education, poverty and progress, they're second?
Tom Hayden: If you don't win elections, it doesn't matter what's second. And it is astonishing to me that someone still has to explain that to you.

William Kunstler: Do you know why you're on trial here?
Abbie Hoffman: We carried certain ideas across state lines. Not machine guns or drugs or little girls. Ideas. When we crossed from New York to New Jersey to Pennsylvania to Ohio to Illinois, we had certain ideas. And for that, we were gassed, beaten, arrested, and put on trial.
