Sunday Oct 25, 2020
Sunday Oct 25, 2020
The Unverifieds review and analyze Aaron Sorkin's new Netflix movie, The Trial of the Chicago 7, which is an entertaining film that nevertheless can't help but advance Sorkin's agenda, even at the cost of historical accuracy. They also look at La Haine to see how a French filmmaker dealt with issues of popular protests against police violence in another time and place. Other topics of discussion include how Steven Yeun has managed to escape the dead-end of Asian American culture, the Jeffrey Toobin zoom dick incident, and the staggering revelation that Anna Wintour might be racist.
