"The Trial of the Chicago 7," "American Utopia," "Shithouse"

Grierson & Leitch

It's getting late in the year, which means (gulp) Election Day is almost here, but it also means the movies are starting to (finally) get a little bit more interesting. First off, we have the big Aaron Sorkin Netflix film "The Trial of the Chicago 7," with Eddie Redmayne, Sacha Baron Cohen, Michael Keaton and a cast of thousands. Then we have Spike Lee's version of "American Utopia," David Byrne's beloved stage show. We also have the charming indie "Shithouse" from new talent Cooper Raiff. Watch movies, ignore the world. Timestamps (approximate): 14:41 "The Trial of the Chicago 7" 36:59 "David Byrne's American Utopia" 1:00:29 "Shithouse" Thanks to Dylan Mayer and My Friend Mary, both of which are wonderful, for the music. We hope you enjoy. Let us know what you think @griersonleitch on Twitter, or griersonleitch@gmail.com. As always, give us a review on iTunes with the name of a movie you'd like us to review, and we'll discuss it on a later podcast. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
