An Original Vintage One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh) (Learn More) Ladies of the Jury, the 1932 Lowell Sherman courtroom juror legal lawyer mystery crime comedy ("Plead Guilty! It's a pleasure!"; "The jury's fixed! You can't lose! Laugh and like it as year's merriest trial goes into session today!"; "All-star jury of greatest comedians puts you in for an hour of howling hilarity!"; "Fun from the first bang of the gavel... Verdict of guilty for old man gloom!"; "Screen's giddiest comedians sit in judgment... write laughter into court records... witnesses howl in glee!"; "From the story by Fred Ballard"; about a chorus girl who is on trial for murdering her elderly husband, and the case seems open and shut, but when it goes to the jury, an elderly Boston matron from a fine family is the only one to vote innocent, and then one by one she convinces the other jurors to join her, until finally, at the film's climax, the verdict of 'not guilty' is brought in) starring Edna May Oliver, Roscoe Ates (billed as "Rosco Ates"; both Oliver and Ates billed as "'Cimarron's' great comedians"; "Rampaging comedians of 'Cimarron'"), Jill Esmond ("Lovely new star"), Ken Murray ("Radio-vaudeville favorite"), and Kitty Kelly. Note that if you have seen movies like 12 Angry Men from 1957, you may have thought that at that time, and prior to that time, only men were allowed to serve on juries. But actually, that was only true of federal juries, and each of the states had their own legislation on it, so it was not fiction that a woman would be serving on a 1932 jury. It also seems a certainty that 12 Angry Men's author, Reginald Rose, saw this movie, and that it served as his inspiration for 12 Angry Men, because the plot of both movies is remarkably similar, although surprisingly, this movie was a comedy!
