38/40

Kiefer Sutherland got his part by writing to Clint Eastwood telling him how much of a fan he was and that he wanted to be in one of his movies before he retired

Synopsis

Serving as a juror in a high-profile murder trial, a father faces a serious moral dilemma that he could use to influence the jury’s verdict and possibly convict or acquit the wrong killer.

Kiefer’s father, Donald Sutherland, co-starred with Clint in Kelly’s Heroes (1970) and Svemirski’s Cowboys (2000)

I saw the film on the closing night of the AFI festival and was once again in awe of Eastwood’s work.

I really admire his humane vision of his community, which this film perfectly captures

Although the story is somewhat predictable, the journey from start to finish was smooth and thoughtful, showcasing its unique twist.

Despite its modest budget, it was a richly crafted and influential film

Unlike many recent films, it ended at the perfect moment with a fitting gesture.

From a technical standpoint, I’m really pleased that the film lived up to Eastwood’s standards

The movie could have been more refined as the story had potential, but I have a lot of respect for what I got.
