Hinckley (2024)

Plot

In March 1981, driven by a dangerous fixation on the film *Taxi Driver* and actress Jodie Foster, John Hinckley attempted to assassinate President Ronald Reagan. The attack stunned the world and reshaped American history. Found not guilty by reason of insanity, he spent 35 years in a psychiatric hospital before a judge granted him unconditional release nearly four decades later. *HINCKLEY* offers an unflinching look at a man whose act of political violence left a lasting mark on the country. It explores his troubled childhood, obsessive behaviors, other assassination attempts, the events surrounding the shooting, and whether redemption is possible for one of America’s most notorious figures—especially in a nation deeply split by politics and haunted by gun violence.
