Storyline

- TriviaIn several scenes when actor Alan Reed, as Harry Patullo, breaks into loud and hearty laughter, his very famous "Fred Flintstone" (his voice work from the animated series The Flintstones (1960)) laugh is unmistakable.
- GoofsIn the fourth day of trial, the district attorney produces a two-page letter written to the defendant which he intends to read to the jury. The defense attorney objects and is overruled. The D.A. reads the letter and submits it as People's Exhibit #1. First, how could they go full three days in a murder trial without submitting any other evidence? Second, such a letter should have been provided to the defense prior to trial and any issues briefed and decided before trial. Third, the judge overruled the objection without even looking at the letter and allowed it into evidence without even glancing at the signature page. Fourth, the letter was not verified by any witness prior to its introduction (a prerequisite, especially for "surprise" items).

Featured review
"Ladies and gentlemen, juror #3 is very much in love with juror #5."
Ginger Rogers and Dennis Morgan serve on a sequestered jury during a murder trial. The two fall in love, despite his still being married and her separated. Combination courtroom drama and soap opera. The murder trial stuff is okay. Not 12 Angry Men but interesting enough. The soaper part is weak and drags the movie down. Predictable safe ending doesn't help. The selling point is the cast. Rogers and Morgan are both likable. The rest of the jurors are made of a variety of colorful characters. The standouts being Thelma Ritter, Anthony Ross, and Alan Reed (voice of Fred Flintstone). It's watchable enough but nothing special. Avid Ginger fans will appreciate it more than most.
