Synopsis
Get ready for a night of gripping drama as Cinephile Paradiso presents the 1957 classic courtroom drama 12 Angry Men, starring Henry Fonda, Lee J. Cobb, and Jack Warden.
Director Sidney Lumet delivers a masterclass in tension, character study, and moral complexity in this timeless classic, which follows an eighteen-year-old Latino accused of stabbing his father to death. With the young defendant's life on the line, a twelve-man jury convenes to decide his fate. Eleven men vote guilty, but one juror, Mr. Davis (Henry Fonda), raises doubts, sparking fierce debates that expose the biases, moral dilemmas, and fragile egos of his fellow jurors.
