12 angry men
Through our discussion, we decided to choose proposed dabate1, 2 & 6. Following are our responses for these questions.
Proposed debate 1: Is there a manager(s) in the group? Is there a leader(s) in the group? If yes, discuss and describe them vis-à-vis our class discussions and course readings.
Through our discussion, we think there are three leaders and one manager in this movie, the manager is the 1st judger, and the 3rd, 8th & 10th judgers are the leaders. The following is our description for them.
Firstly, for the 1st judger, we thought him as a manager. Because from the outset, he performed the manager's role very well, made the ballot for everybody, drew up the rules, statements of rights and responsibilities of each person, and safeguard the rights of each person at real-time. We think that he arrange every step for this jury meeting. As he is a coach in a university football team, he has a very extraordinary organizing ability, and when the talk fall into dilemma, he can guide all into right path. And his career has also made him had a trait that not jumping to conclusions, never admit defeat until the last moment.
Secondly, for the 3rd judger, we thought he is leader in the part which supported the “guilty”. Because he is not shy to express his ideas, can put forward some forceful evidence to support his point and he is also a confidence and optimistic guy. But for his behaviors, we don’t think he is a nice guy. Because, in the sixth round of the voting progress, his offensive behavior by blaming the 12th juror and forced him to cast a “guilty” vote. In fact, he forced others to vote the “guilty”. This tough attitude and even elderly rude made him debate with others all the time which eventually led to the collapse of his allies.
For the 8th judger, as he is an architect, and under the influence of his job nature, he has a rigorous thought, he can analysis every detail very carefully. And during the first voting progress, only he doubted the whole
