2. 영화 감상평
(not guilty)
1950년대 제작된 영화입니다. 흑백으로 제작되었음에도 녹음이 잘 되어있습니다. 법정 배심원 평결과정을 담은 영화로 정말 저렴한 예산으로 제작할 수 있는 영화입니다. 지금 기준으로는 연극도 이보다 무대 장치가 화려합니다.
그럼에도 불구하고 IMDb Top 5로 뽑힌 이유는 관람도중 지루함을 느낄 수 없습니다. 영화의 95% 이상이 방 1 곳에서 촬영되었음에도 내용 전개가 참신합니다.
3. 영화에서 배울만한 영어 어휘
법정영화답게 법률용어가 많이 나옵니다. 그럼에도 불구하고 전반적으로 영어 어휘는 쉬운편입니다. hung jury는 배심원 의견 불일치를 뜻합니다. hung를 보면서 '불일치'를 생각하기 쉽지 않습니다.
영화 보는 도중에 계속 의문이 드는 단어 'el train'은 아마 'elevated train'을 지칭하는 듯 합니다. 우리로 육교 위에 있는 경전철 정도 되어 보입니다.

(1) A premeditated murder is the most serious charge tried in our criminal courts.
(2) One man is dead. Another man's life is at stake.
(3) However you decide, your verdict must be unanimous.
(4) The death sentence is mandatory in this case.
(5) What gets me is the way those lawyers talk and talk and talk... even when it's an open-and-shut case like this one.
(6) No real... dead spots. You know what I mean? I tell you, we were lucky to get a murder case.
(7) And, uh, well, we can vote on it right now, and... I think it's customary to take a preliminary vote.
(8) He's 18 years old. Well, that's old enough. Ηe... He stabbed his own father four inches into the chest.
(9) He lived for a year and a half in an orphanage when his... his father was serving a jail term for forgery.
(10) Only an ignorant man can believe that. now listen... Do you think you were born with a monopoly on the truth?
(11) I have this habit of doodling. Keeps me thinking clearly. Yeah, we have all this work to do.
(12) Now these are facts. You can't refute facts. The kid is guilty.
(13) It is obvious, to me anyway, that the boy's entire story was flimsy.
(14) I just - I can't see two slaps in the face provoking him into committing murder.
(15) It may have been two too many. Everyone has a breaking point.
(16) This boy, let's say he's the product of a broken home and a filthy neighborhood.
(17) It's no secret children from slum backgrounds are potential menaces to society.
(18) Everybody sounded so positive, you know? I-I began to get a peculiar feeling about this trial. I mean, nothing is that positive.
(19) And there was a lot of circumstantial evidence. But actually, those two witnesses were the entire case for the prosecution.
(20) Those people sat on the stand under oath. They're only people. People make mistakes.
(21) begin to diverge slightly.
(22) Aren't you asking us to accept a pretty incredible coincidence? I'm just saying a coincidence is possible.
(23) I have a proposition to make to all of you. I'm gonna call for another vote.
(24) Look, lawyers aren't infallible, you know. Baltimore, please. Huh? He was court-appointed.
(25) Maybe he didn't bring it up because it would have meant bullying and badgering a helpless old man.
(26) Ever since you walked into this room, you've been acting like a self-appointed public avenger.
(27) I'll tell you what I think. We're going nowhere here. I'm ready to walk into court right now and declare a hung jury. There's no point in this thing going on any more.
(28) Boy, the arrogance of this guy. Hey, all right. Let's stop the arguing for about two minutes in here.
(29) Well, the vote's nine to three in favor of acquittal. I don't understand you people!
(30) Wherever you run into it, prejudice always obscures the truth. I don't really know what the truth is.
(31) No jury can declare a man guilty unless it's sure.
(32) She was making a tremendous effort to look 35... for her first public appearance.
