Why Amy Schumer’s Parody Of ‘Twelve Angry Men’ Is Both A Viral Hit And A Brilliant Satire

“The wonderfully absurd universe of the sketch – a woman [Schumer herself] literally on trial for the crime of not being ‘bangable’ – … [is] a parody with a tone that adheres remarkably close to its source material … with the fatal strike coming from the direction you weren’t looking.” (And the cast – Paul Giamatti, Jeff Goldblum, John Hawkes, etc. – is terrific.)
