The 1957 film "12 Angry Men", directed Sidney Lumet and produced by Henry Fonda and Reginald Rose, is an excellent presentation for the study of perception and its influence on communication.
Set mostly is a jury deliberation room, the 12 jurors must decide the fate of a juvenile who was accused of murder. Throughout the film the 12 men display a variety of moods and emotions. They argue, speculate, contemplate, disclose, conspire, reflect, tire and experience personal victory and defeat.
Observation, discussion and examination of the characters and their interactions offer lessons in understanding perception, perceptual constancy, fundamental attribution error, the role of self, and symbolic interactionism.
Even in black and white, this classic still manages to hold students' attention.
