* [[Actor Allusion]]: Juror #3 mocks #12 by calling him "the boy in the gray flannel suit". Lee J. Cobb, the actor playing #3, was in the 1956 film version of ''The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit'', as was Joseph Sweeney, the actor playing Juror #9.
* [[Artistic License Law]]: Being convicted of first-degree murder does ''not'' result in an automatic death sentence. (This isn't [[Society Marches On]], though the length and likely outcome of the appeals process ''after'' a death sentence might indeed be very different today). Also, see [[Hollywood Law]] below. The entire case, in real life, would have ended in a mistrial the moment it came to light that #8 had bought the exact same type of knife as used in the murder.
* [[Asshole Victim]]: The murder victim was an abusive father.
