12 Angry Men - what is it?

(WARNING: SPOILERS)

A black-and-white film from the 1950's where a jury decides whether or not to put a kid to death for murdering his own father. The 12 men aren't actually angry, but quite a few of them do eventually get pretty pissed as all but one of them agrees that the defendant is guilty.

However, the stubborn juror who refuses to say "guilty" slowly but surely gets the other eleven jurors to either A) Make them question themselves and each other, causing many reasonable doubts to arise, or B) Get them to admit personal bias against the defendant. Ultimately, the defendant is found not guilty and his life is saved - all because of one man who believed in him.

How do you get 12 Angry Men?

Put them in a small, stuffy room in the middle of July, and tell them that they can't leave until they all agree on an issue; make sure to include at least one person who stubbornly disagrees.
