I have never been more pissed in my life

[KingRevolver]

They let that little shit stain walk free in 12 Angry Men.

The old man SAW him and the lady across the tracks in the other tenement saw him! The little fucker always carried a knife with him everywhere he went. His height matched perfect to where the stab wound was inflicted. He was seen running from the scene. He killed his own father and they let him walk. That Henry Fonda is a real piece of shit. He convinced that whole jury to let a guilty kid go free.

THE PROOF WAS THERE! What more do these people want? Completely ridiculous.

This movie is old as hell. If you haven't come to terms with the outcome by now here in 2009, I don't know what to tell you.

Weren't you pissed at the verdict? I didn't see it coming. hno: Good film otherwise.

My friend let me borrow another movie about some girl from Kansas who's friends with a lion and some scarecrow. I'll give my review after I see it.

Great movie, great script and great cast..

12 Angry Men ushers in the Golden Age of American courtroom drama, as well as providing a prototype of the narrative twist that will become its particular preoccupation in Juror #8's (Henry Fonda) recommendation of a scepticism so radical that all 'facts', however seemingly objective or irrefutable, are called into question; a necessary counter-point to the hysterical assurance of the other jurors, which is McCarthyist in its intensity, and Republican in its hallucinatory equation of youth culture with patricide, especially in the hands of Juror #3 (Lee J. Cobb), whose tortured relationship with his own son fuels an invocation of pre-emptive genocide against the new generation.

Similarly, playwright and screenwriter Reginald Rose deflects the paranoid patronism of the decade into a nuanced, ambient xenophobia, present everywhere but visible nowhere, as well as invoking early twentieth-century concerns about immigrant slums as an approximate, deliberately regressive vocabulary for responding to the emergent African-American ghetto, whose unspeakable citizens are pointedly omitted from the jury's melting-point.

This intensity ensures that, despite taking place in a single room, the film never feels like a chamber drama, and rarely like a theatrical adaptation, to which end Lumet alternates between expressive close-ups, creative reframings of the room and long, fluid takes that embody the elliptical geometry that Juror #8's background as an architect allows him to apply, and that anticipates the obsessive logistics of the contemporary police and forensic procedurals.

An early example of the liberal Hollywood crowd. mcCarthy was right to go after this nest of lefties.

Free thinking sucks.
