I And Juror 9 Similarities
Differences and similarities I and juror 9 have! The play twelve angry men analyzing the significance of identifying character traits.
A character who is like me is juror 9 because he’s open minded and fair. Juror 9 is trying to give good evidence about the old men, for example, “The old men has never been recognized his whole life he just wants to be recognized.” (pg. 36) I display this characteristic because I could tell fake from fake and real from real like juror 9 did with the old man when he could tell the old man was lying. A way how not alike is that I don’t really focus on things like he do I just go with my guts or my first instant unlike him he thinks it through and makes sure what he’s saying is

    Truth In The Jurors By Reginald Rose

    The writer, Reginald Rose wants to show to me from thus play is that the truth matters more. He wants to show that the truth what matter more because throughout the play the Jurors keep arguing that boy isn't innocent. Later on in the play the Jurors started to find reasonable doubt on the evidence they had on the boy. Like when one of the witnesses said that they say the killing accruing through the window when the train was passing by. It wasn't possible for her to the killing accruing because it was in the middle of the night and she didn't have her glasses on so it was impossible for her to see the boy killing his father through the last to carts windows of the train when passing. (Rose 15) Also when the boy was accused of murdering his…

    Heroism In Terry And 8th Juror

    When there is suppression and exploitation of voices, standing up to a group can prove to be difficult to the unrecognised heroes. Both Terry and 8th Juror, the protagonists in the texts experience self-doubt in their journey to heroism through daring actions that eventually getting them to success. Whilst the reader can identify the initial courage in 8th Juror voting ‘not guilty,’ against the opposing jurors and the majority bias, the reader can note through the stage directions his anxiousness leading up to revealing his vote “The 8th Juror turns, startled.” He’s logical sense came forward unlike the biased and lazy judgement of the other jurors. “There were eleven votes for “guilty.” It’s not easy for me to raise my hand and send a boy…

    Nothing But The Truth Philip Malloy Quotes

    In Avi's book, Nothing But the Truth, there is a quote from a Shakespearian play. Brutus says, "No Cassius; for the eye sees not itself/But by reflection, by some other things." I think that in deeper terms, this means that a person cannot see how he or she acts unless someone acts the same way or describes it to them. This quote can be applied to the story because Philip Malloy, the main character cannot see himself clearly. In that way, I am like Philip Malloy. I have no perception of whether my actions have positive or negatives effects and always assume that I am right.…

    12 Angry Men (Movie of 1957)

    I personally think that Jury number 9 does not fully fulfil the standards of thinking. Based from the readings the standards of thinking “Whenever we think there is always a purpose, within a point of view, based on assumptions, leading to implications and consequences. We use data, facts, and experiences to make inferences and judgments, based on concepts and theories to answer a question or solve a problem.” Juror number 9 obviously did not fulfil these standards. One thing that I noticed about this juror is that when he decided to change sides he only did this for the sake of giving Henry Fonda a breather. He only did this because he thinks that the men inside the room are being too harsh on the boy and o Henry Fonda. This old man did not have a specific purpose towards the case. It would be acceptable that if he changed sides because he doubted the case but he didn’t.…

    Miranda Baker In The Scarlet Ibis

    I am not alike this character in many ways. I don’t have any little brothers with disabilities, or little brothers at all. Nor do I want to suffocate them with a pillow. I’m not embarrassed of my brothers, for any type of reason. I don’t call my brothers names, so people don't expect much from them. I don’t think they’re a let down, they’re quite great, intelligent, and impressive people. Of course this character is a very round character, from the beginning to the end of the story the change quite a bit. I definitely relate to the character at the end of the story, but hardly at all in the beginning.…

    ‘”Twelve Angry Men” illustrates the dangers of a justice system that relies on twelve individuals reaching a life-or-death decision.’ Discuss

    The American justice system is intended to be fair and unbiased. It is founded on the ideal that a defendant is innocent until proven guilty, and ensures the duty of proving a dispute charge rests with the prosecution. However this system has inevitable flaws as every individual’s beliefs, values and morals are affected by their own experiences and factors. While such factors could potentially be the systems weaknesses, they could also be its biggest strength bringing experience and understanding to the courtrooms. It is this contradiction that Reginald Rose aims to explore through his portrayal of jurors in his play “Twelve Angry Men.’ The play presents the possibility that some jurors are driven by prejudice, while others self-interest motives can jeopardize the rights of the defendant through aspirations to speed up the case. However Rose portrays a voice of reason through the ethical juror 8 and the unbigoted juror 11, these jurors help to represent Rose’s view that a fair trial can be held in a jury room full of flawed human characters that symbolize the spectrum of society.…

    Similarities Between The Crucible And The Great Gatsby

    In a book a character’s characteristics help to shape a story into a good plot whether their morals are good or bad. The two characters Mr. Jay Gatsby, from The Great Gatsby has characteristics that are comparable to the character Abigail Williams, from The Crucible. The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald is a book that talks about the “Roaring Twenties” and the social problems between the wealthy from a view of an outsider. While, The Crucible by Arthur Miller was about the Salem Witch Trials in 1692. In the books Mr. Gatsby and Abigail Williams both create their own realities, they are stubborn, they are both deeply in love with someone else, and they use their power to their advantage. While others believe that Mr. Gatsby and Sally Owens…

    12 Angry Men

    Reginald Rose’s play Twelve Angry Men emphasises the importance of seeing things from more than one perspective. Set in a New York jury room in 1957, Rose highlights how important it is that the jury discuss all of the evidence from the case in detail and from multiple angles. Representative of this notion is the 8th Juror who is willing to acknowledge alternative views or interpretations. From the outset of the play he goes against the crowd voting “not guilty”. He then considers all of the details of the evidence including the old man’s testimony and the boy’s inability to remember the movie he saw. In contrast to this character, are Jurors 3 and 10 who are portrayed as the antagonists because of their narrow mindedness and arrogance. They are very rigid in the way they apply their single minded world view and they have a reluctance to recognise the existence of another truth. Rose endorses the 8th Juror’s ability to see things from many perspectives and condemns the 3rd and 10th Juror’s inability to do so. This reveals the significance of looking at the evidence from a variety of perspectives in order to create a just verdict.…

    Jury and Stage Directions

    Twelve Angry Men embraces realistic and naturalistic traditions, presenting an everyday legal drama and the interpersonal conflicts it can generate. It is set during the Cold War when America was struggling for political and economic dominance over powerful nations such as the Soviet Union. As a social critic, Reginald Rose explores the internal conflict in the 1950’s where Communism was feared and racial segregation was still present. Not only does the play echo people’s fear of anyone who was different at the time, it addresses questions of prejudice in the American Jury system. The audience is challenged to evaluate their own possible prejudices and value human compassion over narrow-mindedness and bigotry. To convey his central concern, Rose’s stage directions are concise and delivered in two acts. He deliberately chose a particular setting and characters to use in the play and these essentially contribute to the tension and anger in the play and also clarify moral issues explored in the play.…

    Essay On Jury Duty

    My thoughts on my early morning experience during jury duty selection-I noticed a few elements of successful teaching. The judge was very explicit in explaining the judicial process for selecting a jury, and in explaining the process for a civil case. She presented, gave examples, and even checked for understanding throughout the process. It was funny how I started connecting her questioning of the potential jurors to be like TDQs in the way that each question was essential to some element of the case (were there any connections to the parties involved, the businesses, workers, was there a past experience like the case that could impact your thinking or decision…
