Classic Courtroom Dramas: Our Case for the Greatest Movie Lawyers

12 Angry Men (1957)
Henry Fonda vs. his fellow jurors
Classic Line: "I feel sorry for you... what it must feel like to want to pull the switch." Henry Fonda as Juror number 8
The Verdict: The entire movie takes place inside the jury deliberation room, yet it keeps you on the edge of your seat. As a juror on a capital murder case, Henry Fonda exposes his fellow jurors as flawed, prejudiced and hasty (i.e., human), and tears apart the prosecution's case. Hanging in the balance is the life of an 18-year-old Hispanic youth accused of killing his father.

12 Angry Men, Henry Fonda, 1957.
