Twelve Angry Men Movie Review 1997

Cable TV update of the 1954 "Studio One" teleplay/1957 movie (both written by Rose) that brings together an all-male jury (now with four black jurors) to decide the fate of a Latino murder suspect. Lemmon has the Henry Fonda role of the juror with reasonable doubts, determined to provide a fair hearing.
