12 Angry Men

12 Angry Men (released in the UK as Twelve Angry Men) is a play adapted to a drama film produced in 1957 by director Sidney Lumet. It is about a jury member who must try to persuade the other 11 members to acquit the suspect on trial on the basis of reasonable doubt. The film is notable for its use of a single set: with the exception of three minutes of screen-time split between the beginning and the end and a short conversation in an adjoining washroom, the entire movie takes place in the jury room.
