I picked up the Criterion BluRay during Barnes & Noble’s sale this summer after being aware of the film for a while. I was intrigued by the single-room story and the exploration of condemning someone as guilty, and the film totally blew me away. The acting was stellar, the writing is timeless, and the cinematography was magic the way it kept a single room visually interesting for 90 minutes.

10/10 everyone should watch it

    I remember watching it for the first time in my high school class and they were a pretty loud bunch that had a hard time paying attention. My teacher put this movie as part of one of our history lessons.

    Everyone was glued to it, not a side conversation going on or anyone goofing off during it. Excellent movie!

      I saw this movies as part of a class too! I’m glad my teacher put this on or I never would have discovered it.
