Seven gentlemen in history

"The Trial of the Chicago Seven" only brought me shock.

Borrowing the past to satirize the present, the scale is the highest of Netflix.

In the highly restored plot of the trial, the historical events are restored in the form of flashbacks, which excellently controls the rhythm of the film.

Civil rights, government, country, these key words run through the film and are a satire of the current American government. (Because the scale is too large, the plot will not be sorted out)

Business and literature strike a perfect balance in this film, and I look forward to seeing him in the Oscar nominations.

    The play is very good. June 4th in American history, but people can photograph it so complicated and profound!

    After taking over the baton of "Black Party" and "Mrs. America", Hollywood once again photographed the most vigorous, powerful and angry epic of the civil rights movement. Alan Sorkin’s pinnacle screenwriting art and amazing scene management ability present all the contradictions and conspiracies in the courtroom. Flashback shows the protest scene during the Democratic Party Congress in Chicago. The two protesters have physical conflicts with the police. The climax passage is the existence that will be written into the textbook, and the best Oscar editing is bound to be won. "Outside the bar is the 1960s, and inside the bar is the 1950s. Anyone looking out the window can see that the 1960s is happening under their noses." In rock music, they signal to each other that human history is still being rewritten under the inspiration of the spirit of the civil rights movement, at this very moment. Best booking of the year.

The Trial of the Chicago 7 quotes

  • Abbie Hoffman: In 1861, Lincoln said in his inaugural address: 'When the people shall grow weary of their constitutional right to amend their government, they shall exert their revolutionary right to dismember and overthrow that government.' And if Lincoln had given that speech in Lincoln Park last summer, he'd be put on trial with the rest of us.

    William Kunstler: So, how do you overthrow or dismember, as you say, your government peacefully?

    Abbie Hoffman: In this country, we do it every four years.

  • Tom Hayden: Are we using the trial to defend ourselves against very serious charges that could land us in prison for ten years, or to say a pointless "fuck you" to the establishment?

    Jerry Rubin: Fuck you!

    Tom Hayden: That is what I was afraid... Wait, I don't know if you were saying "fuck you" or answering.

    Abbie Hoffman: ...I was also confused.
