12 Angry Men as a related text? (1 Viewer)

[Saksyyna]

Was wondering whether using 12 Angry Men would be a good related text for conflicting perspectives.
It ties in well with the module but i'm just concerned that it's overused, can anyone confirm this?

I don't think anyone from my school is using it?
But I think it would be a great related text for conflicting perspectives

I don't think it's too overused. It's not original, but I think you'd be fine to use it.

Sweet probabaly using that then. Yeah it's not very original but i'm looking for other text types such as comics/media articles etc

ASSUMED? Brother, I've seen all kinds of dishonesty in my day, but this little display takes the cake. Y'all come in here with your hearts bleedin' all over the floor about slum kids and injustice; you listen to some fairy tales; suddenly you start getting through to some of these old ladies..well, you're not getting through to me, I've had enough! WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH YOU GUYS? You all know he's guilty. He's got to burn! You're letting him slip through our fingers.

Slip through our fingers? Are you his executioner?

I'm one of them!!!

Perhaps you'd like to pull the switch?

For this kid? You bet I would!!
I feel sorry for you………. what it must feel like to want to pull the switch.
Ever since you walked into this room, you've been acting like a self appointed public avenger. You want to see this boy die because you personally want it, not because of the facts. You're a sadist. I'll kill him! I'LL KILL HIM!

You don't "really" mean you'll kill me, do you?

…..AWKWARD MOMENT…..

I love that movie, I think it would be good as a related text.

Yeah heaps good movie haha. I thought it could work well because both texts show perspectives driven by characters.
