Eddie Redmayne credited as playing...
Tom Hayden
- Tom Hayden: What is that?
- Rennie Davis: I've been keeping a list every day. Americans who've been killed since the day we were arrested.
- Tom Hayden: Why?
- Rennie Davis: With the trial starting, it might get easy to forget who this is about.
- Tom Hayden: Are we using the trial to defend ourselves against very serious charges that could land us in prison for ten years, or to say a pointless "fuck you" to the establishment?
- Jerry Rubin: Fuck you!
- Tom Hayden: That is what I was afraid... Wait, I don't know if you were saying "fuck you" or answering.
- Abbie Hoffman: ...I was also confused.
- Abbie Hoffman: Winning elections, that's the first thing on your wish list? Equality, justice, education, poverty and progress, they're second?
- Tom Hayden: If you don't win elections, it doesn't matter what's second. And it is astonishing to me that someone still has to explain that to you.
- Ramsey Clark: I'm in private practice now, and if John Mitchell wants to cut me in half, he can and he will.
- Tom Hayden: You have to find some... Sir, you have to find some courage now.
- Ramsey Clark: Find some courage? Yeah.
- Tom Hayden: Yes. You have to find some courage, and...
- Leonard Weinglass: [silencing him] Tom.
- Ramsey Clark: [points at Kelly and Ackerman] That's what those two men came to tell me, that if John Mitchell wants to cut me in half, he can and he will. So I wanted them in the room when I said 'When do you want me in court?'
- Howard Ackerman: [standing in surprise] Mr. Clark?
- William Kunstler: I'm sorry?
- Ramsey Clark: Swear me in, Bill.
- Howard Ackerman: It is against the law for you to testify, Ramsey. It is as simple as that.
- Ramsey Clark: It's General Clark. And arrest me or shut the fuck up.
- Ramsey Clark: [turns to Hayden] Found some.
- Detective Deluca: [to Tom] Don't fuckin' move.
- Detective Bell: [also to Tom] On your feet.
- Tom Hayden: Those are two contradictory instructions.
- Bobby Seale: [after Fred Hampton's murder, to Tom Hayden] You've all got the same father, right? "Cut your hair, don't be a fag, respect authority, respect America - respect me." Your life, it's a "fuck-you" to your father, right? A little?
- Tom Hayden: [Quietly] Maybe.
- Bobby Seale: Maybe. And you can see how that's different from a rope on a tree?
- Bobby Seale: [a little ashamed] Yeah.
- Bobby Seale: Yeah. He was shot in the shoulder first. You can't aim a gun if you've been shot in the shoulder; you can't squeeze the trigger. Second shot was in his head. Fred was executed. Anything else?
- William Kunstler: No.
- [Bobby leaves the room]
- Tom Hayden: Is that Jerry?
- Rennie Davis: [on the phone] Yeah.
- Tom Hayden: Tell him to tell Abbie we're going to Chicago to end the war and not to fuck around.
- Rennie Davis: [into the phone] Tom says to tell Abbie that we're going to Chicago to end the war and not to fuck around.
- Jerry Rubin: Hayden says we're going to Chicago to end the war and not to fuck around.
- Abbie Hoffman: Tell Hayden that I went to Brandeis and I can do both.
- Leonard Weinglass: Abbie's smarter than you think he is.
- Tom Hayden: Cows are smarter than I think he is.
- Fred Hampton: Bobby's life is at stake, and you guys are playing to the crowd?
- Tom Hayden: Thank you...
- Fred Hampton: Shut up!
