In the original play, at the very end after everyone else has left the jury room, Juror #3 takes the knife, points it at Juror #8 like he's about to stab him, and then turns it around and hands it to him. Juror #8 closes the knife and puts it in his pocket, unlike the movie where they just leave it there on the table.

This scene felt like a first knockdown from hands of underdog. The setup leading up to this was executed so brilliantly, that i could hardly count movies with such on my one hand after this one (1957!)

That something is possible is not necessarily sufficient to raise a reasonable doubt. The words of the juror "But not very probable" should have been given more consideration by the other jurors.

So if the kid did actually lose his knife on the night his father was killed, I personally like to believe that someone else found it and took it to the pawn shop where Juror 8 saw and bought it.

No CGI, no special effects, no megastars. This movie was made in a single room and still it is one of the best movies to be ever made.
@FabledGentleman Жыл бұрын
1. There were no CGI in 1957, so duh. 2. Henry Fonda was a mega star at the time. And is to this day one of the industries all time greats. 3. Implying that CGI ruins movies, basically every single expensive movie made after 2000 has CGI in them. Every single one.

SO, Juror 8 went to the scene and bought a knife to consider evidence not produced in court. I think the jury foreman now has to inform the judge of this. Attorneys on both sides then have to be told to consider a motion for a mistrial. In most courts, a jury is sequestered during deliberations, especially in a murder tiral.
