    The gap between Pleminger and Wilder is as obvious as the gap between this film and the prosecution witnesses. Without Stewart and Scott, this movie would die...

    A masterpiece by Otto Preminger, a model for legal and political films. 1. In an open-ended court trial, a non-omniscience perspective forces the audience to push the truth. 2. The tit-for-tat without cold scenes, the hints of out-of-court details are interspersed, and the rhythm is lively. 3. James Stewart won the Venetian actor with this film, and the morally ambiguous lawyer also surpassed the usual justice and kindness. 4. Saul Bass’s poster praised. 5. Privately think that it is not as...

    1. Coquettish woman + jealous man is definitely the worst combination, I didn't expect them to go on; 2. Real and wonderful court debates, everyone has their own answers in their...

    As a junior legal person, I have always firmly believed that the so-called law has never been, and will never be, a yardstick of fairness and a symbol of justice. In the evil capitalist country, it may also be a game where the prosecutor and the defender fight wits in and out of the courtroom, but in the great dynasty, it can only be a fig leaf for the transaction of power and money, and a person who allows dignitaries to search after dinner. Happy...

    Win purely by script. During the whole process of the court, there was no poetic justice, no justice or evil, and no truth appeared until the end, so that the aftermath of the film was very full. In the end, the jury came to the so-called truth in a cloud of fog, which can be called a powerful counterattack against the twelve angry...

    I watched the young and handsome James for two days and watched it fiercely. It was slightly old and blessed. However, after seeing his congressional debate the day before yesterday, I saw his court passion, humor and wit, and so handsome today! The first half of the bedding is slightly longer and flatter, and the whole film may be better if it is...

    Typical case, classic interpretation

    Regarding "lawsuit" movies, broadly speaking, there are only two types. The first one: the narrative focuses on the "justice" or "injustice" of the big things (such as the "defendant" starring Judy Foster). The second type: only focus on the "winning or losing" in the strict sense (such as this...

    Love the profession of lawyers

    The Christian saying is that everyone is inherently sinful, but the "Three Character Classic" says that "at the beginning of man, his nature is inherently good." No matter how hard we try, we can only glimpse a certain aspect of human nature.
          Justice is based on human life and the existence...

Anatomy of a Murder quotes

  • Paul Biegler: If you do that one more time, I'll punch you all the way out into the middle of Lake Superior!

  • Parnell Emmett McCarthy: Twelve people go off into a room: twelve different minds, twelve different hearts, from twelve different walks of life; twelve sets of eyes, ears, shapes, and sizes. And these twelve people are asked to judge another human being as different from them as they are from each other. And in their judgment, they must become of one mind - unanimous. It's one of the miracles of Man's disorganized soul that they can do it, and in most instances, do it right well. God bless juries.
