"It's always difficult to keep personal prejudice out of a thing like this. And wherever you run into it, prejudice always obscures the truth. I don't really know what the truth is. I don't suppose anybody will ever really know. Nine of us now seem to feel that the defendant is innocent, but we're just gambling on probabilities - we may be wrong. We may be trying to let a guilty man go free, I don... read more

There are so few movies in this world that manage to immerse you completely into the situations it portrays. In general, the simpler the situation, the easier the immersion. And this film is extremely simple in premise; it has only two rooms in the entire film and 12 characters, and they pretty much just talk for the entire movie. This seemingly simplistic premise really manages to immerse you as ... read more

Twelve jurors sit on a murder case. Everyone agrees immediately to guilt of the accused. All ... excluding juror number eight, who is skeptical and wants to review the case before a man condemned to death. At ease in his effort will be faced with the empathy of the other jurors that "reflect" the prejudices of an entire society. All votes of the jurors is a battle ...
Actually, it is very v... read more

Description: The defense and the prosecution have rested and the jury is filing into the jury room to decide if a young Spanish-American is guilty or innocent of murdering his father. What begins as an open and shut case of murder soon becomes a mini-drama of each of the jurors' prejudices and preconceptions about the trial, the accused, and each ... (more)

"7.5. DVD - Rewatch Samassa seurassa toinen jo useaan kertaan nähty elokuva, jonka halusin kuitenkin näyttää ystävälleni. On mielenkiintoista, että vaikka tämän käytännössä muistaa ulkoa, ei voima ole edelleenkään kadonnut mihinkään. Miellyttävää oli myös huomata, miten intensiivisenä elokuvana ystävänikin tätä piti, ja välillä molemmat vain katsoivat elokuvaa liki hengittämättä. Yksi amerikkalaisen elokuvan vaikuttavimpia teoksia ja teemoiltaan ajaton elokuva ik"

" Watched May 5th - TCM - Rewatch "I don't really know what the truth is, I don't suppose anybody will ever really know, nine of us now seem to feel that the defendant is innocent, but we're just gambling on probabilities - we may be wrong - we may be trying to let a guilty man go free, I don't know, nobody really can - but we have a reasonable doubt, and that's something that's very valuable in our system." - Juror #8 I said in my 30 Days of People list that I wanted to watch more Henry Fonda"

"One of the most amazingly well-crafted and most interesting movies I have ever had the pleasure to watch. What a thrilling ride, what a simple story, what groundbreaking performances from these 12 men and what an achievement in direction!"
