‘Juror #2’ Review: If This Riveting Courtroom Drama Becomes Clint Eastwood’s Final Film Then He Is Finishing On Top – AFI Fest
A review of 'Juror #2' from Clint Eastwood and starring Nicholas Hoult as a juror in a murder trial who finds a moral dilemna as the case unfolds
He explains his situation to the judge but she will have none of it and,as it turns out, he is selected to sit on a jury for a murder trial involving a woman Kendall Carter (Francesca Eastwood) meeting a brutal death and ending up dead in a ditch off a dark road on a stormy night. She had gotten into a public fight in a roadside bar with her volatile boyfriend, James Sythe (Gabe Basso) who becomes the one and only suspect as prosecutor Faith Killebrew ( Toni Collette) paints a picture of a guy who followed her down the road in his car and beating her to death. Hoult, who will also be seen this Fall in two other major releases ( The Order, Nosferatu), takes a difficult role which often just relies on his facial expressions, but also is fully three dimensional as this about-to-be young father has a severe crisis of moral conscience that threatens to upend his life, his freedom, and his marriage.
