Aaron Sorkin’s The Trial Of The Chicago
7 Reminds Us Why We Fight Back
By Morgan Rojas for cinemacy.com
In 1968, a mass of counterculture activists
spearheaded a massive protest in Chicago’s
Grant Park, hoping to draw attention away
from the Democratic National Convention
and onto their anti-Vietnam War demonstration.
To say their plan succeeded, is an
understatement.
All eyes were on the “Chicago 7” after
the protest sparked a riot between police and
protestors, overtaking the city and leading to
political unrest (sound familiar?). Charged
with criminal conspiracy and crossing state
lines to incite a riot, the seven men and the
trial that followed became one of the most
infamous events in history. And with The Trial
Of The Chicago 7 (streaming on Netflix),
the story comes to audiences by way of Mr.
Courtroom Drama himself: Aaron Sorkin.
Acclaimed for his Oscar-winning screenwriting
but here directing his second film,
Sorkin assembles a top-notch cast of actors,
including Eddie Redmayne, Sacha Baron
Cohen, Jeremy Strong, Frank Langella, and
Joseph Gordon-Levitt, plus short but sweet
appearances by Kelvin Harrison Jr, and Michael
Keaton, to name a few. To be expected
in any Sorkin work, there is a lot going
on here: from fast-paced dialogue to quick
cuts that jump between archival footage and
reenactments, The Trial Of The Chicago 7 is
sealed with the stamp of Sorkin. If you love
his previous work, I won’t have to sell you
on this film. I know you’ll watch it anyway.
A line that’s repeated throughout the film
is the protestor’s battle cry “The whole world
is watching!” That was true in 1969, and it’s
still true today. Here we are, in 2020, reliving
eerily similar scenarios of unlawful police
brutality, peaceful demonstrations turned into
aggressive brawls, and a legal system than
runs on bias (conscious or unconscious).
Sorkin said it himself at the drive-in screening
I attended at the Rose Bowl: “This film
will upset you. Anger you. But above all
else, it will inspire you.” It’s no coincidence
that the film’s release is just weeks before
the most important Presidential election of
our lives, and if there is one takeaway from
The Trial of the Chicago 7, it’s this: every
voice in our country matters, and has the
potential to change the world–even it starts
as just seven. •
