A classic till eternity...

Rating: 10/10 (25 March 2015)

This movie will surely remain a classic forever.Brilliant acting by all the characters,each character has unique personality traits.Each characters personality blends harmoniously with the plot. its a must see movie for all lawyers..its like a short course on logical argumentative reasoning.
The dialogues are straight and sharp with tinges of humor. Even though this movie is set in a single court room with just 12 characters arguing with each other,the movie was successful in capturing my attention all throughout. "Wait not to be backed by numbers,Wait not till you are sure of an echo from a crowd.The fewer the voices on the side of truth,the more distinct and strong must be your own".Henry fonda's acting is superb,you could see in his eyes the pain of putting a young boy to the chair.
The story tells how personal prejudices can often make us miss the facts.It conveys an important message that its more harmful if an innocent man is convicted than thousand criminals roaming free.
