Best Indian adaptation and an intellectual's delight

I can't remember watching a film where every 10-15 mins I have exclaimed, "Too good, too good, too good!" or "What a film!" 12 jurors, in a single room, for two hours, no change of scenery - it still manages to keep you riveted, and much more!

A timeless film which has so many undertones - morality vs reason, fact vs opinion, sincerity vs flippancy, assumptions vs critical thinking... and more. Inner conditionings of each character are brought out so well, there's also social commentary that's relevant even today.

Each of the 12 actors (most from NSD) have put their all into the roles. The film is a remake of ''Twelve Angry Men' which I haven't seen. But Basu Chatterjee has created one of India's best film adaptations here.

Truly an intellectuals' delight.
