WWW.MovieFinder.Com's Review: During the trial of a man accused of his father's murder, a lone juror takes a stand against the guilty verdict handed down by the others as a result of their preconceptions and prejudices. Adapted from Reginald Rose from his own 1957 film version (directed by Sidney Lumet) and from the "Westinghouse One" television production which predated it. Scott won a Golden Globe for his supporting role; righteous juror Lemmon was denied such an honor for Best Actor, but recipient Ving Rhames (for "Don King") dedicated his award to Lemmon.
