Chicago 10 (2007)

"Chicago 10" brings to life the counter-culture, wise-guy icons of the Chicago 7, the leaders of the radicalised hippies (aka "Yippies") who clashed with Chicago police over the Vietnam War. The resulting court case was pure theatre on a national scale, as the defendants undermined the proceedings, and the Judge undermined the defendants' basic rights and dignity; as Norman Mailer and Allen Ginsberg spoke their piece, and as the proceedings slipped into farce.
