12 ANGRY MEN opens in Los Angeles. Sidney Lumet's directorial debut, adapted by Reginald Rose from his original teleplay. Set almost entirely within the claustrophobic, sweltering confines of a jury room, 12 men vigorously deliberate fate of an accused murderer. Compelling, combustible character study with an understated Henry Fonda leading a powerhouse ensemble that includes Lee J. Cobb, E.G. Marshall and Jack Warden.
