So many people will write on Twelve Angry Men, but the average mark will still be, what, 5.3/10 or around there? It doesn't matter if shit loads of people are writing on it, because shit loads of people are going to structure their essay just like this:

Paragraph 1 - Juror 8 is a good guy who doesn't afraid of anything, even aliens
Paragraph 2 - Juror 3 is a bad guy and I hope he dies in the next movie
Paragraph 3 - Juror 7 chews gum sometimes and I think he likes baseball and apples. (The Ringer reference)

Conc - Rose is a good guy who doesn't afraid of anything.


Twelve Angry Men is fantastic because it offers a huge amount of complexity (of which many will miss) that allows you to demonstrate your skills. I just properly read the response above mine and realised I sound like a dickhead because I said the same thing. I agree with that guy ^
✌️just do what makes you happy ✌️

Ive hardly thought about the exam, although I have planned that I will have one primary text, which will be my first preference on the exam. I'm not going to ignore the other text though incase my preferred text has difficult prompts.
