Most of the scenes in the film Twelve Angry Men only take place in a room, and a boy is voted guilty or not guilty of killing his adoptive father. This film is the only one I can't say for the protagonist. Is it a boy? He may represent thousands of people who have the same grievances as him. What about the business owner whose 11 people said he was guilty at first and only 1 said he was innocent? He ended up saying that he was going on a business trip to Japan, but he failed to help the boy really solve the problem. It was the gray-haired juror who had always found him guilty. He knew from the beginning that the evidence was false, but he also knew that if the boy was released, he might be killed by the one who really killed his adoptive father, so he insisted. He is guilty and wants him to stay in jail. Oh! Man! How easy it is to judge right from wrong based on superficial appearances, although the boss who first said he was innocent was righteous, but he did not have a deep thought that what such justice brought to the boy might not be a release but a death warrant. In the film, all kinds of people gather in this room. When time and space oppress everyone together, they start to take off everything and say a lot of things hidden in their hearts. Thanks to the director for letting us see the truth in many human natures, the ugliness in reality, and the goodness in the mixture of ugliness and human nature.
The most interesting thing is that cute bird, he is like a visitor from the sky to observe all this, I don't know what the director wants to use him to tell us, but in the end the boss went back to that room and picked up the statue of the Virgin and Child, Say to the bird, fly out or stay here, it's up to you. I suddenly remembered what Lu Xun said about "people in a dark room", are we all asleep? Did we know that we decided to fly out? There is also a bird watching the suffering of Jesus in the scene of the Passion, is it really just a bird?
