Conspiracy: The Trial of the Chicago 8

A made-for-cable-TV docudrama about the trial of the men accused of conspiring to cause protesters to riot at the 1968 Democratic National Convention in Chicago. Combines in an innovative manner dramatic recreations (largely faithful to the actual trial transcripts) with documentary footage and interviews with the actual defendants.

Director: Jeremy Kagan

Cast: Peter Boyle, Elliott Gould, Robert Carradine, Michael Lembeck, Robert Loggia, Martin Sheen, Brian Benben, Ron Rifkin
