十二怒汉剧情简介
However, this film is not as famous as the original version and has received mixed reviews. Based on the 1957 black and white film of the same name, it explores the American jury system and legal justice. Directed by William Friedkin, it stars Jack Lemmon as the main character, replacing Henry Fonda, and also features Academy Award winner George C. Scott.
The film tells the story of a young man in New York who is accused of killing his father and faces a first-degree murder charge, which carries the death penalty. Eleven of the jurors have already voted guilty, but one of them has doubts and stands firm in his belief, using patience and determination to convince the others to reconsider their verdict and ultimately overturn what could have been a wrongful conviction. Despite taking place mostly in a small room, the film still manages to create a gripping atmosphere through its excellent dialogue and performances.
