Exposition: Three men, Lamar Swift, John Henderson and Max Jablonsky were celebrating in Multivac’s underground chambers. The Multivac was a giant computer that they used when fighting wars. After many years of intergalactic war, they had just destroyed the Denebians. The men felt great relief. Rising action: Henderson tells Swift that he did not use the Multivac computer’s data to make decisions about the war. He corrected and changed the computer’s data because it did not look right. He entered the corrected data into the computer. Jablonsky knew something was going on but did not say anything. He knew the computer was not working correctly. He confessed that he also used his own intuition to make needed corrections in the data. …show more content…
He used his intuition and the flip of a coin to make decisions. Falling Action: Swift began thinking of all the times he had used a coin flip to help him make decisions. It was obvious that he was thinking about those times by the look on his face. Denouement: The denouement was when Swift reenacted how he used a different machine to make his own decisions. He flipped a coin and said “Heads or tails,
The point of culmination is at the end of the story when Sarty has warned Major de Spain of Abner's intentions to burn the barn. I think that the main character experiences the burst of emotions, running down de Spain's drive and hearing Major's horse galloping behind him. The resolution to the conflict comes when Abner and his elder son are shot. But the real solution happens at night after Abner's death, when Sarty is sitting upon the crest of a hill thinking about his actions and future life.

During the New York summer of 1957 the play Twelve Angry Men is set in a small humid jury room. The playwright Reginald Rose through this play questions the reliability of current jury system. The jurors are instructed by the judge “to deliberate honestly ant thoughtfully”, as a result some take this instruction more seriously than others. A number of the jurors are able to take a logical stance, whilst other becomes emotionally involved in the issue. Uncertainty plays a vital role in creating doubt in the jurors minds. The contrasting perspectives of Juror 3 and Juror 8 make this very clear. Demonstrating quite evidently that despite the minority most are able to deliberate genuinely and with close considerations to the details of the trial.
Sitting in a chair with a wet sponge and metal cap on your head, strapped to a wooden chair, heart racing knowing what is to come. Scared half to death because you're sitting in your death seat for a crime you did not commit by a jury that did not talk it all the way through . In the play 12 angry men by Reginald Rose the jury has to decide whether or not to the boy being tried for murder to the electric chair. The author states many times that if the jury did not carefully talk about the evidence available. If the men would not have talked it out as long as they did then they would have done a quick vote and sentenced the boy to the death penalty. Although at different times of the story some of the men came mad and others became mad or frustrated
Exposition: Albert’s father who always gets drunk before an auction decides to buy a baby horse. However, he only wanted the horse because of his “rivalry” with another farmer. Since Albert’s father doesn’t need or want the horse he often would abuse the horse, this later backfired when Joey kicked him. Albert would stand up to his father because of how much he cared for Joey.
During the 1970s, American southerners who lived on the plantation and were of black descent and dark skinned were faced with racial prejudice and were harassed by lynch mob groups such as the Klu Klux Klan. In Ernest J. Gaines phenomenal book, A Gathering of Old Men, Gaines conveys the hard times faced during this time period. by a group of black men and women when a black man named Mathu is accused of murdering a white Cajun farmer named Beau. However, a white woman named Candy attempts to protect the people: “‘No, I won’t let them harm my people,’ she said. ‘I will protect my people.’ (pg 19).” She keeps stating that it was her who killed Beau. Candy then gathers many black folks to gather at the Marshalls place. While these men are commanded
In A Gathering of Old Men, Ernest Gaines addresses racism within a mid-twentieth century Louisiana town through a story about the murder of Beau Boutan, a white man, by Charlie Biggs, a black man. To protect Charlie, most of the elderly men of the black community gather and protest the sheriff taking him to almost certain capital punishment without examining the case. When Luke Will, an old friend of the Boutan family, learns of Beau’s death, he immediately declares that “the trouble already been started… when n-----s start shooting down white men in broad daylight, the trouble was started then. Somebody got to (settle it) ‘fore it gets out of hand.” (149) Will, like the old men, wants to retaliate against injustice, but rather than a logical protest, he relies on threats and mindless violence. Bringing a group with guns to the scene, Will brings the tension of the novel to a boiling point and sets up for a final conflict.
In the beginning of the racial comments I fee like the coach brushed most them off, became he personally didn't care about skin colour, he just wanted a good team. By a later on in the film he seems to understand how hard it must be for the black players, and the position he has put them in by asking them to be part of a basketball team.
The statement “Drama reflects real life on a stage” is shown through the powerful dramatic play by Reginald Rose, ‘Twelve Angry Men’. Reginald rose through the effective use of characterisation, conflict and tension, symbolism, language and setting, Rose dramatically reflects human experiences with ‘Twelve Angry Men’. It is a play that directly appeals to our sense of justice and equality and questions audiences to contemplate the arguments on a ‘fair trial’ in a judicial process when ‘reasonable doubt’ is also taken into consideration. Reginald Rose also reflects human nature and experiences by taking into account the emphasis on each individual’s civic duty and responsibility to maintain fairness through the eyes of the law and shows how easily unbiased truth can be blinded by personal prejudice when conflict and tension are involved.
Twelve Angry Men is a play written by Reginald Rose regarding the jury of a murder trial. It is concerning the verdict of whether the accused is guilty or not guilty of committing murder. The setting of this play enhances the tension amongst the 12 jurors to choose if the accused’ is guilty or not for ending his father’s life with a switch blade. The tension in the play is most predominantly exhibited through the instances of the heat and the weather during the examination of the case. Tension is further explored through the culture of the jurors and the accused’. Lastly the age differences contribute in increasing the pressure within the verdict room.
I heard a bell from somewhere, i’m not sure where it is coming from. Ross comes out and says for us to see what he saw and he asks the people to ring the bell. The guards have blood on them and their daggers as well. Lady Macbeth asks what happened because she just woke up. The king was murdered and the sons were asking who killed him.
The ending of the film may have had the most dramatization, in comparison of the other scenes in the movie. After the successful delivery of his first wartime speech, King George VI was congratulated by BBC technicians and ministers and applauded by a large crowd outside Buckingham Palace. While it was a very emotional and powerful scene, there was no record of such things occurring following the broadcast of the king’s speech.
Frank R. Stockton uses a very interesting plot structure. The exposition is intriguing because you aren’t exactly sure where it ends. ”Among his courtiers was a young man of that fineness of blood and lowness of station common to the conventional heroes of romance who love royal maidens.” (pg. 6) A couple lines down it says, “until one day the king happened to discover its existence. He did not hesitate nor waver in regard to his duty in the premises. The youth was immediately cast into prison, and a day was appointed for his trial in the king's arena.” (pg. 6-7) This guy is one of the main characters in the story but he is introduced well past halfway through the story. The way he uses rising action is also interesting. He doesn’t use action
As a group, we selected The Other Guys, a comedy movie taking place in the New York City police department. The story involves two mismatched detectives that attempt to seize an opportunity in the department. In the movie, The Other Guys, the department is run by Captain Gene Mauch. The atmosphere in the department runs in a way that focuses on two main detectives doing most of the action outside the office. These two-star detectives are Danson and Highsmith, who are played by Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Samuel L. Jackson. However, a shootout with robbers results in the deaths of Danson and Highsmith, leaving a hole in the department. After mourning the death of the detectives, everyone in the office desires the opportunity to be the lead detectives of the department. The movie follows two of the detectives in the department as they attempt to fill the role of lead detectives. These characters are Allen Gamble, played by Will Ferrell, and Terry Hoitz, played by Mark Wahlberg. Both Allen and Terry have pasts that have been plagued by bad luck. Allen was once a pimp turned detective after being rushed to the hospital from poison ivy in his butt. Terry shot Derek Jeter during the Major League Baseball Playoffs. Even though Allen and Terry have been plagued by bad luck, they hope that making the arrest of all time would turn their life around.
Additionally, in several night scenes, Lachman used long shot to shoot the whole windows in the eye-level only with the lighting from the rooms. This technique produced a circumstance that audiences are standing outside of the building seeing peeking what these people are doing. The window frames look like interval between characters. Dividing them visualizes the inner difference of characters. They are in the same genre of people. In the party of Harge’s parents, Carol smokes outsides and Jeanette steps in. The window frames separated Carol and Jeanette generating a boundary between them. Also in the scene that Therese and Danny are at the office of Time magazine, Lachman used the same cinematography method creating distances between two characters.
