    12 Angry Men: Analysis

    By the sound of it, you would think “12 Angry Men” would be a football game, but a lot can be said for a jury proceeding and this movie does a great job of showing that. Twelve different men with twelve different personalities are locked in a room until they can unanimously agree to a verdict, a decision whether to put an 18 year old boy to death for a murder charge, or let him go free. When they enter the room, the mood and feeling was nonchalant, as if it was an open and shut case, but after a preliminary vote not everyone was in agreement. The proceedings that followed were longer, and more taxing than they expected but the longer they talked about it, the more clear the picture became.…

The American knows she is hesitant about the abortion, yet he continues to humor her by telling her that she doesn’t have to do it (Clugston, 2010). It almost seems as though they spend the entire conversation avoiding the subject by briefly making interjections pertaining to…
