Reflective conservative brilliance
Anyone who just compares Juror #2 with 12 angry men misses the point entirely.
Clint Eastwood tries to film modern ideology into not only the courtroom. Even more into society.
Eastwood reflects on why there is so much going wrong today. This is not a movie about guilt. It is about a what's right.
Is it justifiable to lock an innocent troublemaker away so a nice person, who was not even aware of being involved in the death of a young woman, can live his life?
This is the fundamental question. And there we have Eastwoods conservatism. Eastwood truly believes in law and does not even for a moment thinks otherwise. Especially like in the movie for personal sensitivities. Of course everything is allegorical and you can transfer this topic into other modern themes of social institutions.
Thank God for Clint Eastwood.
