Review of 12 Angry Men (1957) by Marc R — 04 Dec 2012
Lumet's terse, simmering debut is a masterwork of vivid characterizations and rich writing. Its virtually real time unfolding and spare direction give this the spark and grit of reality. It's a powerful and timeless exploration of the legal system (particularly on the eve of social change in America) and the desire for justice.
