    The Power of Words: Conveyed in 12 Angry Men In all stories‚ plays‚ or works of literature‚ theme is a major component. Theme is the message that the author communicates to the audience‚ through the story. The most jutting theme conveyed by Reginald Rose in Twelve Angry Men is the power of words‚ and he portrays this best by the effects of the word choice of each juror‚ by using character foil in the way Juror 3 and Juror 8 present their reasons for taking their vote‚ and some verbal irony that

    12 Angry Men is a short drama written by Reginald Rose‚ which follows the trial of a Puerto Rican boy being tried for the murder of his father. This story helps expose the many flaws that are in the United States justice system‚ one of them being a shared prejudice amongst the jurors against the defendant. For example‚ Juror 3 an extremely opinioned bigot was selected even through so called “thorough” cross-examination. In contrast‚ there is Juror 8 a more quiet and thoughtful gentleman who seems

    12 Angry Men Analysis The movie 12 Angry Men is a very abstract movie. It gets the audience thinking about the clues and the fact of the matter which is if the boy is actually guilty.

    The first thing I noticed in the movie 12 angry men was how hot the room was they were in. I wonder if that is intentionally done to raise agitation from the start. The Juror nicknamed “The messenger service guy” was very loud and obnoxious from the get go.

He is stubborn and set in his ways‚ he is the hardest to convince that the subject might
