arguments
only slow us up.
Now, what about it?
You are the only one...
Jentlemen...
I have a proposition.
I'd like to call for another vote,
I want you eleven men to
vote by secret written ballot
and I will abstain.
If all eleven of you vote guilty,
I'm not gonna hold out - we'll go in
with a verdict to the judge right now.
But if anyone votes not guilty,
then we stay and talk!
And... that's all...
I'm ready right now,
if you'll all go for it.
Finally, you're behaving
like a reasonable man!
Come on, let's do it!
Anyone who doesn't agree?
Alright, pass these along.
Come on, today man...
Alright...
Guilty.
Guilty.
Guilty.
Guilty.
Guilty.
Guilty.
Guilty.
Guilty.
Guilty.
Not guilty.
Guilty.
Well how do ya like that?
And another chap flips
his god damn wings!
Come on who was it?
Cause I wanna know!
Excuse me! We agreed that
this would be a secret ballot.
- Secret?
- Yeah!
- What are you talking about?
- Secret...
There's no secrets in the jury room...
I know who did it...
Brother you are really something,
you know that?
You come in here
and you vote guilty
like everybody else
and then there's golden voice preacher
over here starts to tear your heart out
with a lot of stories about a poor little boy
who just couldn't help becoming a murderer.
So you change your vote...
...that is the most sickening...
Why don't you drop a quarter
in his collection box?
Wait a minute, you
can't talk like that!
Sit down!
- He's very excitable.
- Damn right I'm excitable!
We're trying to put a guilty man where he
belongs and somebody's telling us fairy tales
and we're listening!!!
- Take it easy.
- What do you mean take it easy?
You feel like seeing a proven
murderer walking the streets?
I'll tell you what! Let's give him his
knife back, make it easier for him!
Alright, stop the yelling!
Now does anyone have any other suggestions?
Excuse me, I would like to say something.
I've always thought that in
this country a man was
entitled to have an unpopular opinion.
Hey look, let's stick
to the subject, ok pal?
Why did you switch your vote for?
Now look... ain't none of
your fucking business...
He didn't switch his vote, I did.
Would you like me to tell you why?
No, I wouldn't like you to tell me why...
Well, I'd like to make myself clear anyway...
If you don't mind.
Do we have to listen to this?
Hey look, the man wants to talk!
Thank you!
This jentleman has been
standing alone against us.
He doesn't say the boy is not guilty.
He just isn't sure.
Well it's not easy to stand alone
against the ridicule of others...
He gambled for support
and I gave it to him.
I respect his motives.
The boy on trial is probably guilty.
But I wanna hear more...
I'm talking here!
You have no right to just walk...
He can't hear you. He never will.
Sit down.
If the speech is over,
may we go on?
I think we ought to take a
break, there is a man inside there...
...we should wait for him.
Look I... was pretty excited,
you know what I mean...
I didn't mean to get nasty or anything.
Thank you.
God, I wish I knew some
way we could break this up.
You know in advertising... I told you
I work in an ad agency, didn't I?
Well, we got some pretty
strange people down there.
Well, not strange really, they
just have peculiar ways
of expressing themselves sometimes,
you know what I mean.
It's probably the same thing in your business.
What is it you do?
I'm a watch maker.
Really?
Finest watchmakers in the world
come from Europe, don't they?
Anyway! Like I was saying...
At the ad agency, when we reach
a point like this in a meeting,
there's always some character
ready with an idea that kills me.
I mean it's the weirdest thing
sometimes, the way they...
...percieve their idea with some
little phrase, you know,
like some count exec would go
"Oh here's an idea, let's hang around the flag
pole, see if anyone sings the national anthem"
or..."Here's an idea, let's put
