reflection and reality

The focus of this film is not on the guilt of the Chechen boy, nor on the case analysis process, but on the whole process of thinking and changing and the psychological state of such a group of social roles with different backgrounds, which represent exactly everyone in this society, Habitual insensitivity, indifference to others, hostile prejudice, change starts from a person's understanding of tolerance, tolerance does not represent justice, but everyone has to sit down and rethink.
Since I can't leave it for a while, I have to hope to reach a conclusion soon. The interesting thing is that the discussion of the case leads to the real story of everyone. Some people let go of their hypocrisy, and some people reveal their hearts. They are only willing to change their views when they are in themselves, no matter whether these views are true or not, as long as they resonate with them. Fortunately, the Jew's obsession with rationality didn't make this merely an emotional judgment.
Except for the interspersed war and chaos background, the rest of the film is carried out in the same scene. The dialogue between the 12 people is vivid and detailed, and the layers are in-depth. This is a movie with flesh and blood, so what I saw is a country thinking, thinking about this What happened to the country and why. Then it is natural to think of our great mother, will our country think? Although there are many public figures on Weibo who are righteous, I don't feel that this country is thinking, and maybe they themselves can't tell whether they are acting or defending justice.
However, Russia is not in a recession today, so I have to try to dialecticalize whether this kind of thinking is useful? I didn't expect that the painter's speech at the end happened to be the same question. Is it useful to be forced to gather here to think about it at this time? When he offered to shoulder the burden of defending justice together, everyone refused. In the end, the scene where everyone stepped out of the gym further confirmed this. They talked and laughed and returned to their original social roles and plots as if nothing had happened.
I haven't seen the original, but this one is really good, whether it's the performance of the actors or the rhythm of the plot.
The only thing that felt wrong were two logical flaws. First of all, the reason why the 12 jury members had to sit together to discuss is because they disagreed, but after they entered the gym, it can be seen from everyone's conversation that they did not undertake the plot because they opposed it. Those who are bound to be ridiculed will not be surprised if there is only one dissent.
The other one was about the photo, and the woman couldn't be stupid enough to put the original and the cropped photo together.
