2007 marks the 50th anniversary of the release of Twelve Angry Men. The film starts off in a courthouse where a jury has to vote on sending an eighteen year old boy to the electric chair. He has been charged with murdering his father. Ultimately each man on the jury has to face up to his private prejudices, apprehensions and fears before delivering his personal verdict on the case. Excellent film starring Henry Fonda in a pivotal role.
The film has been split into nine sections all of which are available on YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQePWQ7UM2Q&feature=related is Section 1.

Yes, it is a wonderful movie. I always thought it was an adaptaion of John Grisham novel. However, recently came to know that it was a remake of a 1954 television play by the same name. Thanks for sharing the link.
