Chicago 10 opens with footage of a United States president telling the American people of the need for more troops to fight the war. Protests ensue, and some turn violent. Rage Against The Machine blares in the background. The hook, of course, is that what we're seeing onscreen happened nearly 40 years ago.

All Things Considered , February 29, 2008 · Forty years ago, there was another election that centered on an unpopular war. In 1968, the Democrats gathered for their convention in Chicago, and were met by demonstrators who'd organized what they called a "youth festival" to protest the War in Vietnam.
HANNIBAL Cannibal sit back, Sweeney Todd and his piping hot meat pie missus are here. And they do the human morsel munching, better, bolder and bloodier than Anthony Hopkins cheek-chewing act in The Silence of The Lambs .
Filmmaker Brett Morgen mixes rotoscope animation with vivid archival footage from the '60s into what he calls a "mythomentary," radically repackaging historic political protests for the YouTube generation.
