Movie Conflict Management Style: The movie I chose to watch for this assignment was Monster-in-Law. Jane Fonda plays a over barring mother who believes no one is good enough for her son. Jenifer Lopez plays the woman in question‚ who spends the entire movie fighting over her fiancé with her “monster in law”. If you haven’t seen this movie I highly recommend it. The relationship between the bride and soon-to-be mother in law perfectly displays competition management style. Marquis & Huston (2015)
