Written by Reginald Rose.
Directed by Ian Fraser Ernsberger.
Produced by special arrangement with THE DRAMATIC PUBLISHING COMPANY of Woodstock, Illinois.
A tense, engaging courtroom thriller, “12 Angry Men” focuses on a seemingly open-and-shut trial of a young Puerto Rican accused of murdering his father with a knife. The 12-man jury retires to their microscopic, sweltering quarters to decide the verdict. When the votes are counted, 11 men rule guilty, while one doubts the obvious. Stressing the idea of "reasonable doubt," this juror slowly chips away at the jury—exposing the prejudices and preconceptions that directly influence the other jurors' snap judgments. Directed by Sydney Lumet, the 1957 film starring Henry Fonda featured the tagline “Life is in their hands, and death is on their minds. It explodes like 12 sticks of dynamite.”
