Episode 12 Angry Men (1957) | Ep. 69 - Part 2

0:00 1:05:44

Back in the jury room for the second half. John, Westy, and Matt continue the story of Lumet's courtroom classic, turning to the people who built it and the verdict that brings it all home.

We dig into the crew behind the film — the screenplay, the score, and the cinematography that made one room feel ever more claustrophobic — before breaking down the climax, the reception, and the film's lasting legacy. Plus that legendary knife scene, how you make 96 minutes in one room absolutely riveting, and the hosts' final verdict and scores.

If you've not heard Part 1 — the beginning, the director, the cast, and the middle — go back and start there.

Telling the story of Hollywood, one film at a time.
