@@argasatrio4526 Another film that you should watch him in is "Days of Wine and Roses" (1962), where Jack Klugman played "Jim Hungerford" a sponser from Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) who helps Jack Lemmon's character "Joe Clay" with maintaining his sobriety.
Amazing film. Jack Klugman played an important juror, number 5, who uses his personal background to move the case forward. For example, as someone who grew up in the slums (much like the boy on trial), Number 5 explained the correct handling of a switchblade knife.
One of my favorite parts of the movie is the way Klugman looks at EG Marshall. It's hilarious. I never tire of the movie because the acting is so superb from every single one of them.
*FUN FACT:* Not only did Jack Klugman live the longest life of the twelve angry-juror clan, but he was also the last of the twelve member crew to pass away; Christmas Eve 2012. 33114 days, prostate cancer
A weird, wild fact. I remember he being the only living one. His passing was certainly rough! I believe he also died on the same day as another legend, Charles Durning?
@@UncleJemima I'd certainly recommend 12 Angry Men as I did for a friend who enjoyed it. The 1997 remake was the first version I saw when it debuted that year and I'd recommend that one too.
An outstanding film, more than a movie. Made a great impression on me when I first saw it at age 10, and ever since. What a cast and Lee J. Cobb was remarkable. They all were. And the idea and script made it so.
Lot of NY actors in this great film. But it's not just the acting; the writing is superb, as the nature of each character emerges. And Jack Klugman is right - the two most emotional parts are portrayed superbly by Lee J. Cobb and Ed Begley. Fantastic! Lao Du
Simply the best array of such fantastic acting talent.... My favorite was Lee J Cobb.... He played the troubled angry man superbly.... They don't make em like that anymore folks..
I've always thought that this film appears to be "undirected." That Sidney Lumet placed a few cameras in the jurors room, yelled "action!," and let the actors do the rest. Of course, this film was highly directed, which only amplifies the incredible talent of Sidney Lumet. My all-time favorite film.
I never get tired of watching this and the 1997 version of "12 Angry Men." The cast in both of these versions is superb. Great movies like these are a dime a dozen!
Jack Klugman was a thespian with a penchant for acting. He also didn't sell-out his birth name, at the behest of greedy & deceitful 'Hollywood' Moguls or studios. This proved that it IS possible to "make it" in show business, without disrespecting one's family name & heritage.
In order, best first: 1- Henry Fonda 2- Spanish movie version with the song from The Animals...The house of the raising sun. 3- G.C.Scott 4- Others This is my opinion.
"You couldn't get a cast like that together in a movie today." You could, if you spent a billion dollars on their salaries for the film. $900 a week? Today that would be around $9,000 but what actor today of the caliber of that entire cast would take any job for $9k a week for 2 months. There are some but not many.
Oh my lord, what a treat to hear Quincy oops Jack Klugman discuss a film of, in my opinion, stellar proportions and then to talk of the joy he had being a part of the film!!!
"He came in with a difference niece every day and they were gorgeous" "I asked how many nieces do you have!" "As many as I can get". Umm...how old were these fake niece's?!? Jesus, what a casual way to mention something clearly not right going on...
I loved this play when I first introduced to it in junior high! I especially like the black and white movie because it is an all white cast and to me, that makes the impact of the social implications even more impactful. I hate black and white movies but this, to kill a mockingbird and on the waterfront, just superb!
This is a classic the 97 remake wasn't a patch on it as many of the cast were too old for their parts and the acting was forced, often copied never equaled.
Klugman is great in this, but in reality he was miscast. His character grew up in an urban slum, he's unemployed (reading the want ads) and had a rough life. The role should have gone to someone like Sal Mineo. But again, Klugman is so good he makes it work.
@@StrobeFireStudios some don't have the ability for the patience to dial into the time the black and white so when you're young mainly only a real movie buff can sink in if you're a young man
Jack Klugman and the rest of the cast were outstanding in this classic film! RIP Mr. Klugman. 🙏❤️
he's still alive
@@argasatrio4526 He died christmas eve 2012.

Klugman had the longest longevity than any of the other 12 Angry Men Juror actors. Klugman lived for 90 years.

An outstanding movie. They don't make them like this any more. Each actor did a fabulous job!
100% agree, no special effects , just plain great acting. I first saw this film when I was 12.
This is one of those rare films that you don't watch, you live it.
watching it on edibles was a hell of an experience, would recommend

Just watched the movie again today for the gawd knows how many times, simply a fantastic movie with really great actors.

Yes me too, especially at the end.
@@swaldron5558 good man..
The way the character disintegrated the longer the film progressed was an absolute masterclass in acting from Cobb

Agreed
Nice to see this. Classy film, one of my favourites. Klugman is always a joy to watch, great in The Twilight Zone too. Cheers!

When I was called to jury duty I couldn't get the 12 Angry Men theme song out of my mind.

Quincey M.E. would have figured out the stabbing angle was wrong.
In order, best first:
1- Henry Fonda
2- Spanish movie version with the song from The Animals...The house of the raising sun.
3- G.C.Scott
4- Others
This is my opinion.

Yes it’s a little odd. Maybe they were in their 20’s, I’m assuming. Back then, even 20 year olds looked older
Jack was so young there.
It's a super film.

I heard Ed Begly was knocking the bottom out of those nieces daily. Lol..R..i.P. fellas
Yikes, I think Ed had a wife until 1957 until she passed away, the same year this movie was made, so I sure hope he wasn’t cheating constantly
Great film. Yes indeed. An incredible cast for sure. Great film.
This is a classic the 97 remake wasn't a patch on it as many of the cast were too old for their parts and the acting was forced, often copied never equaled.
It is a cool movie. Haven't seen it in a bit. Perhaps I'll rent it.
Oh Lord, i needed a moment to se that is Quincy
And Oscar Madison.
For me, this is the greatest film by a country mile. there is nothing that even comes vaguely close.
This film had a great cast. Did it ever get any awards?
yeah, you could say that
www.imdb.com/title/tt0050083/awards
So good it won a golf (PGA) award.

The KLUG MAN!😂..... RIP
They were just, classic blood and sand
I miss Robert Osbourne.
❤❤❤
i like the film it felt real
I know I'm a little late to the party but I watched it for the first time last night. Great movie, but dude was guilty
I tried to get my older brother to watch this. He couldn't sit through 12 minutes of it.
