Synopsis

Determining truth in a search for justice is what a jury does. This celebrated American drama takes the audience behind the scene of a “locked in” jury room, in which a dozen unacquainted men debate and delve into “reasonable doubt” in a capital murder crime trial. A rush to judgment is not good judgment, but it made a powerful play and a famous movie.
