We Need To Talk: Conversation on Film
(NR) USA – 1 hr 36 min
1957 · d. Sidney Lumet
Starring Henry Fonda, Lee J. Cobb, Ed Begley, Martin Balsam
In a sweltering jury room, eleven men are prepared to send an inner-city teen to the electric chair, but Juror #8 (Henry Fonda) demands they give the evidence a closer look, driving them toward an explosive moral reckoning. Among courtroom dramas, Sidney Lumet’s feature debut might just be the G.O.A.T.
The screening on Wednesday, September 17, is presented in conjunction with a Cinema Classics Seminar, taught by Amy Corbin, Ph.D. Seating for screening-only attendees will begin at 7:00 pm. Just want to see the film? Purchase your tickets from this page.
