12 Angry Men
It explodes like 12 sticks of dynamite!
8.6(10,193) 1957-04-10 97 minDrama
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 soon becomes a mini-drama of each of the jurors' prejudices and preconceptions about the trial, the accused, and each other.
