Read this when I was in eight grade, and I've also seen both editions of the movie. It's such a classic, and I love how the novel has little to do with really deciding if the kid is guilty or not. It's more about just getting people to shift their ideas of the way things are. A novel of persuasion. I really loved that dynamic, that it's essentially just a group of people sitting down and talking but ultimately changing as a result of that discourse. Brilliant.

I think it would be excellent both live and as a movie. It is fun to have the character descriptions give you a sense of the men you'll meet before you meet them though.
But it was well written, and definitely made you believe there was reasonable doubt !

It's definitely an important play for everyone. Still, I would have liked more development of Juror 8. He felt a bit flat in comparison to everyone else (especially Juror 3).
