The Trial of the Chicago 7 (2020)
Movie
Released
Mark Rylance's measured objections and Frank Langella's brittle judicial authority make control of the room a visible contest. Sacha Baron Cohen uses provocation as a performance strategy, while the ensemble keeps disagreeing about what their own defence should mean. The dialogue is polished and the history heavily shaped. Choose it for clashing public personas rather than an unmediated record of the trial.
