And yet, there are so many hidden details in 12 Angry Men that you probably didn’t notice and that’s what makes it such an entertaining and clever film. Whether you’ve seen the film many times before or have just seen it once or twice, these details will enhance your enjoyment of the film.
For example, did you know that 12 Angry Men was actually inspired by a reallife jury trial? The film’s writer, Reginald Rose, had served on a jury a few years prior to writing the play and the screenplay. He served on the jury for a manslaughter case and this gave him inspiration for the story of 12 Angry Men.
While 12 Angry Men is a very suspenseful film you have to remember that it largely takes place in one small room and is based on a play. In most cases, this is a recipe for a disaster and works on stage but not in the cinema. So how exactly did Sidney Lumet make such a minimalist film into such a suspenseful one?
And while we know that 12 Angry Men is a classic film today that has had many adaptations, how was it received when it was first released? How exactly was the film marketed to audiences who were living in the Golden Age of Hollywood and were used to grander productions rather than one featuring 12 men angrily arguing with each other?
