This commentary focuses on David Buchanan and Andrzej Huczynski’s “Imagesof Influence: 12 Angry Men and Thirteen Days,” and Paul S. Goodman’s “Filmmaking and Research: An Intersection.” These two articles offer insights about film as a teaching resource and how filmmaking can inform our research processes. The similarities between these two articles stop at their common basis in film. They each give us useful but different views on film in teaching and filmmaking and the research process.
