Juror #2 2024
i forgot to log this when i watched it but remember enjoying it! clint's style is fascinating to me, always has an air of hyperrealism without necessarily veering into caricature. nicholas hoult is just incredible, that garage scene was heartbreaking. the courtroom and jury deliberation bits themselves were not so well-written but not that big of a deal. what this film gets at with the idea of truth and its consequences is quite profound
