剑凌虚空

This production of 'Twelve Angry Men', written especially for Studio One, is shorter than the film version and leaves a few twists and turns of plot undeveloped, but it is fifty minutes of class nevertheless. For many years this episode was thought to have been lost. The Museum of Television and Radio (now the Paley Center) had only the first 30 minutes of the hour-long program on a kinescope provided by CBS - the only version CBS had. After nearly 30 years of searching, a copy of the complete program was found in 2003 by filmmaker Joseph Consentino, who was working on a documentary about noted defense attorney Robert Leibowitz (Leibowitz reported on the Charles A. Lindbergh baby kidnapping for the NY radio station WHN) and found a copy of the show in the archives maintained by the children of Leibowitz, Robert Leibowitz and Marjorie Leibowitz Finch. Samuel Leibowitz requested and received a commercial-free kinescope copy of "Twelve Angry Men" from CBS shortly after it aired because of his interest in legal issues. The Leibowitz children donated the kinescope to the museum and it had a re-premiere in May 2003.

普通人的命运在轰轰烈烈的时代面前总是渺小到可以忽略不计。个人，如果勇敢地站出来想阻止时代洪流，多少像奋力扑向风车的唐吉坷德，往往只能当殉道者，而更多时候，个人甚至连选择当旁观者的权利也没有。可是普通人的悲剧，无疑能照出历史的荒谬与残忍。1945年日本无条件投降后台湾光复，基隆一户林姓人家眼见也要过上好日子，但人算不如天算，林家大小波折从此不断。“二•二八”事件发生后，家中的四兄弟更是只剩下老老实实开有一家照相馆的聋哑人老四林文清（梁朝伟）。然而悲剧并没到此终止，因为和进步人士有联系，林文清也没能逃脱被逮捕的命运，到此，林家男子只剩林文清和吴宽美（辛树芬）的幼儿——他尚呆在襁褓中咿呀咿呀地学语。
