A classic about the ideals of American democracy and the justice system
12 Angry Men is an American classic that deals with how democracy should work. It focuses upon a court case that appears to be open and shut. A teen is accused of killing his father.<br />All the jurors think the kid is guilty and will get the death penalty except for Juror #8 (Henry Fonda). He believes that the boy deserves a serious discussion about whether he is guilty or not. That annoys almost everyone, but that leads into a heated debate over not only the case, but all kinds of other issues. Juror #10 for example (Ed Begley) is racist against immigrants. Amongst all the talk and arguments Juror #11 (George Voskovec) reminds everyone that they are there to carry out their democratic duty to have the people decide a criminal case, and that this is an essential part of how America works. It’s not the judges or government that decides whether people get sent away, but the public itself. That is the message of the film and delivers it in a powerful way.<br /><br />My only real complaint about the film is that it takes a bit to get the deliberations going, and in the middle, there’s a little a bit of a drag as well. Otherwise this is a great film about the ideals of America.<br />C

Here is a brief synopsis of the title : Eleven jurors are convinced that the defendant is guilty of murder. The twelfth has no doubt of his innocence. How can this one man steer the others toward the same conclusion? It's a case of seemingly overwhelming evidence against a teenager accused of killing his father in "one of the best pictures ever made" (The Hollywood Reporter)..
