No matter how much emphasis is placed on the awakening of the human nature of the Twelve Angry Men in the first part of the film, it is no match for the reason for objecting to innocence in the final trial. When the child comes out of the cage and becomes a free man, who can guarantee his safety at that time? At this time, all the previous stories and evidence, even the boy's innocence, seems very pale. I'm not denying them the constant struggle to prove the boy's innocence because of their conscience. Yes, trying to prove the boy's innocence is also one of the manifestations of conscience, but the point raised by the presiding judge is more thought-provoking for me. What's the point of spending our time trying to set the boy free and we're not going to keep him safe? ! And when he proposed to let the boy go to prison, they would continue to investigate, and when he suggested that the case should be cleaned up and then overturned, the performance of the other eleven people instantly reminded me of their impatient faces when they first entered the gym. In fact, this behavior is not wrong. They only come to ensure a fair and reasonable judgment in this case. When they reach the most reasonable conclusion and realize their so-called morally correct judgment, they will naturally feel worthy of their conscience. What happens to the boys, that's really not within their jurisdiction. No, they are not evil, even from their stories it can be seen that most of them can be considered good, but they are just ordinary people, in this matter they have completed their fair decision, for the future They are also completely free to hang up on themselves.
Indifference is no longer a moral issue. When it becomes a common social phenomenon, no one will think that indifference is a wrong emotion.
As for the presiding judge who had no choice but to vote for innocence, he finally chose to lend a helping hand to the boy. He could be said to be nosy, but another name for this nosy is the embodiment of a sense of justice and kindness. I have admiration for the chief judge, but I don't think I can be like him.
The Twelve Angry Men not only express such a little meaning, combined with the background of the war in Chechnya or even just analyzing the dialogue of these twelve people can analyze a lot, but I have said that much.
