The Garage (1980)
9/10
The Russian's Answer to 12 Angry Men
9 August 2016
Warning: Spoilers
And it is actually better in my view. The plot is simple, a group of people working together try to decide which 4 people of the group will not be allocated a parking spot. The situation is quite real and everyone can relate. The depiction is more truthful and convincing than 12 Angry Man. Acting is so excellent that it is very easy to forget this is a movie. Dynamics, which is not as dramatic as 12 Angry Men, is more complicated and deeper. While people can probably guess the direction of ending from the beginning, the plot is intriguing and several times it feels there is a dead end and then there is a solution. somewhat like Prison Break season 1, which is a completely different story but the essence of script writing is comparable. Certainly a classic!
