Movie Trivia/Goofs

  • Movie Goof (revealing mistake): Early in the film, Frank two-finger-types a note on a manual typewriter to tape on the door of his office suite. When we see the note, however, we can see that the typed letters are perfectly uniform in darkness and thickness, indicating that the note was actually typed on an electric typewriter.
  • After the verdict was announced in the film, director Sidney Lumet filmed two versions of the ending. In one version, the final shots we see are of Newman's character walking away from the courtroom in a series of long shots, never seeing what happens after he leaves the courthouse. In the version that was used, we see a sequence after he leaves the courthouse.
  • Movie Goof (plot holes): When Frank (Paul Newman) introduces himself to Laura (Charlotte Rampling) in the bar, he tells her he is a lawyer. She replies that her ex-husband is a lawyer. We find out later, in her meeting with Concannon (James Mason), that she herself is a lawyer. Why doesn't she tell Frank that, instead of saying that her ex-husband is one?
  • Two cast members - Edward Binns and Jack Warden - played jurors #6 and #7, respectively, in 12 Angry Men, also by Sidney Lumet.
