The local lawyer marketing firm initiated the series, "The Law as Seen through Film" because modern film is one of the best vehicles for capturing today's legal issues. By providing a forum for discussion and a moderator knowledgeable about the law, the Ossining audience will benefit from both watching a highly admired classic and asking questions afterwards. "12 Angry Men" is a promising film in that it serves to remind us that state and federal courts are designed to provide fair trials. We welcome participants and hope for a lively discussion.
