Midnight review
20 April 2020
As the execution of the woman he helped find guilty draws near, the jury foreman begins to question his decision. Chester Erskine's unusual examination of the impact a guilty decision has on a jury foreman and his family is earnest but dull. Sidney Fox is awful as the foreman's daughter, giving an increasingly overwrought performance that has the opposite effect on audience sympathies to that which is intended. Humphrey Bogart stands out in a small role, but that's probably just because he's Bogie.
