Good thriller during rising time of Indian Cinema
Lover-UD11 August 2009
Its always good to remember your old good days and watching these movies are perfectly a pleasurable experience. Late 50's and 60's is considered as the golden time for Indian Cinema and this movie proves the statement. It was one of classic suspense thriller of that time, with star cast like Wahida Rahman and Guru Datt sahab. The story is tightly written and basically revolves around a murder. Beautiful mix of romance between Wahida and Guruji and humor part added by Johny Walker makes it a perfect one to watch. Gurudatt Sahib is playing a lawyer who is in love with Wahida ji and fighting a case of murder for her, when she is charged with it. The way story unwraps layer by layer is really a lesson to learn. The movie is better than most of modern time thrillers.

Unknown Guru Dutt & Waheeda Rehman Movie.....
ravisinger8627 March 2014
12'O Clock Is A Suspense Thriller Directed By Pramod Chakravorty... Written By Tanveer Farooque....Script Is Fine...Story Is About Bani & Solicitor Ajay ....Bani Works For Ajay ...They Fall In Love...Bani Has A Cousin Sister Maya...Who Is Arriving To Mumbai..She Gets Killed ... Bani Who Had Gone To The Station To Receive Maya, is Charged With The Murder....Now Ajay Proves That Who Is The Real Suspect & Is Bani Innocent..Is Base Of The Story...

Guru Dutt & Waheeda Rehman Have a Great Chemistry Even Better Than Pyaasa...Guru Dutt Is Better ...Waheeda Is As Usual ....Johny Walker Plays Important Role...Rehman Does Well...Young Shashikala is Fine...The Casting Is Good...Similar To Guru Dutt Team....

Music is Composed By O.P. Nayyar ...Some Of The Songs Are Really Good ..."Main Kho Gaya Yahin Kahin" By Rafi...."Tum Jo Huye Mere" By Rafi - Geeta & "Kaisa Jadoo Balam Tune" By Geeta Dutt....

Overall A Good Movie....Screenplay & Editing Should Have Been Better...Some Elements Are Similar To "Baat Ek Raat Ki(1962)" Starring Dev Anand & Waheeda...Similarly Dev Has To Prove Waheeda is Innocent & Who Is The Real Suspect....
