I am happy to have this (with Robert Cummings as Juror #7) version of this excellent play. It is technically well done and the DVD print is fine. I have owned and watched the Henry Fonda film of "12 Angry Men" over the years and the TV version reaffirms how critical Fonda's performance was to the earlier production. (Cummings is OK but he lacks the bite that Fonda has). The rest of the cast is enjoyable in both versions. I have a small personal take on the play, having worked in an amateur production of the show years ago, with a mixed men-and-women cast and titled "12 Angry People." (A woman played #7.) It, too, was well received, which confirms that the play is inherently a fine drama.Get more detail about Twelve Angry Men.
