Customer Reviews

ABBIE HOFFMAN LIVES!
This film has historic value, as it was written from the actual court records. It was made in cooperation with the original Chicago 8. The film documents the insanity of this particular trial, highlighting the in-court binding and gagging of Black Panther activist Bobby Seale. It confronts the injustices of our legal system with unflinching hilarity. This film is a must see for every American, as it will force the viewer to question all assumptions about Constitutional law.

Great Docudrama
A very well acted movie. It combines dialogue from the actual trial transcripts with interviews with most of the main participants. I highly recommend it.
