The remake is quite good but it’s tough to top Henry Fonda!

The original play is licensed for professional, stock and amateur theaters. The copyright holders (heirs?) have authorized productions allowing for mixed casting and re-titled the play, “Twelve Angry Jurors.” Modern times!

We’re near Cape Canaveral heading north. Beautiful weather in Florida!

I once used it in a college seminar I was teaching. We were discussing group dynamics. I haven't seen the remake but would like to.
