In Brett Morgan's Chicago 10, stylish archival footage and original animation make an unusually powerful marriage of form and function: a re-creation of the now-legendary Chicago Conspiracy trial, in which eight predominant activists were scapegoated for the 1968 Democratic National Convention riots. Some of the best actors of the current generation voice actual court transcripts of the best minds of that generation — among them, Liev Schreiber as William Kunstler, Jeffrey Wright as Bobby Seale, and Hank Azaria as a waggish Abbie Hoffman — dead-set on reminding Americans that loving your country also means fighting to change it.
