12 Angry Men

i read the screenplay in 8th grade and didn’t really care for it but watching the actually movie 100% changed my whole view on it. i really enjoy that the further into the films we start to see that they all stop treating the accused as a waste of their afternoon but as a human life. the shift in the lack of remorse to realizing the true weight on their shoulders is what makes this so beautiful. with juror 8 starting the movement even if he stood alone because he wanted to give the kid a fighting chance. almost working as a moral compass trying to sway the other men into seeing the other side of things. to look deeper into the facts and really see if it all makes sense. i think the thought process between of every juror was beautiful and seeing what it took to finally change their minds.  i wish i payed more attention when i was reading it in school.
