Hey, just a question about 12 Angry Men *Spoilers*

X-3 · 09-19-2007, 04:32 PM

Alright, the person I was "shadowing" today had a film class or something, and they watched 12 Angry Men. I started to get really into it, and I really wanted to know what was going to happen, but unfortunantly, the class ended before the movie could end. We ended when it started to rain, and the "main" juror(The one who voted Not Guilty originally)was asking another Juror if he could remember what he did the last few days.

My main question: do they all eventually agree on voting "Not Guilty" for the boy? Did the boy really kill his father? If not, who did? I tried to Wiki it for answers, but I found none. I'm just really curious right now. If anyone feels like answering these questions, be sure to put them in Spoiler Tags so other don't see(Though, the movie is like, what? 50 years old?). Or you could just tell me to rent the movie and then see it.

And yes, I like spoiling things for me. It's an unfortunate habit of sorts...

It's exactly 50 years old, actually.

They do all agree on voting "not guilty", but it is not stated whether the boy did it or not. There's a short scene outside the court at the end where Henry Fonda and another Juror exchange their real names.

Ah, I see. So the focus was more on getting the kid "Not Guilty", then revealing the true killer. Alright, thank you for satisfying my curiousity.

I'll probably go out and rent it. I thought it was really good from what I saw, so why not?

Because the rogue juror doesn't know who the real killer is; he just doesn't believe that it's the defendant.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

i never saw the original, but i did see the remake with Jack Lemmon as the renegade Juror, and Tony Danza and some other people i kinda recognized in it
