‘The Trial of the Chicago 7’: The Trial of a Generation

Written and directed by Aaron Sorkin, "The Trial of the Chicago 7' follows the true story of the titular seven protesters who are placed on trial for rioting after attempting to protest against the Vietnam War at the 1968 Democratic National Convention. This is Sorkin's second film as director, his first being "Molly's Game." If you plan on seeing this film, I do have to warn you -- since it deals with scenes of riots, it can and will get violent and messy.
