Movie: 12 Angry Men


cover

I’ve been wanting to watch this for a long time. Peter Fonda plays the lone dissenter in a jury who convinces everyone else of his position. It’s far-fetched as a story, but a very good setup for examining the ways people judge others. All the characters are played really well, making a movie that takes place entirely in one room riveting and suspenseful.
