Comparing King Henry The V, Romeo And Juliet, And Much Ado About Nothing

     There are many similarities and differences between the sixties version of Romeo and Juliet and the modern version of Romeo and Juliet. It is very easy to spot these differences considering the time period each movie was set in. There are some things in the play that totally got cut from both movies. There are also some things that they added to the movies that weren’t in the play. Let us get on to the similarities and differences.

In the original play Romeo and Juliet written by William Shakespeare in 1587, throughout the years there have been movies made trying to convey the message that Shakespeare had wanted. The movies that will be examined in order to compare the differences on whether they are similar to the original are Baz Luhrmann’s 1996 version William Shakespeare’s Romeo + Juliet and Carlo Carlei’s 2013 version, Romeo & Juliet. The movies are another version of the original play in terms of setting, tone and characters that were used in conveying the story of Romeo and Juliet. It is clearly seen that Baz Luhrmann's 1996 version is more similar to the original play as it brings out the tone and conveys the message better than the Carlo Carlei’s 2013

As illustrated by the two plays Romeo and Juliet and Much Ado About Nothing, William Shakespeare was a true romantic. In each play, his characters suffer great hardship, but in the end, he delivers them to a life of eternal love. Characters plot against each other in each play. The relationships of the people in his plays are not always what they seem. Whether it be a tragedy or a comedy, Shakespeare encompasses three elements into his plays: love, intrigue, and identity.

One can find many similarities between most of Shakespeare’s works, however, this may only be because of the shear amount of plays he had written. As we see today, much of Hollywood can be broken down to the same bare bones structure of story, and Shakespeare is no different. Although these similarities may be noticed only within the context of the theatrical arc – comedies full of love and pranks, tragedy ending with a pile of bodies - two plays stick out far above the rest in their likeness; Romeo and Juliet and Much Ado About Nothing. These shows, although very different, have an uncanny and alarming amount of similarities spread all throughout the acts. The strongest connections these plays have to each other lie within the characters and the themes and relationships included in the plot and they only differ in the way the story unfolds.

The big talk with all teens these days, is romeo and juliet (not really). They are all wondering the same exact question: Whose fault is it that romeo and juliet went through their horrible tragedy together. Is it the families?... Romeo?… The friar?… Well, you guessed it in the title. It is all juliet's fault that all of this ever went down. The main idea of the essay today will be how juliet messed up everything. Yes, there were many other people that contributed to their deaths, like the nurse, but the main problem of all of this, is Juliet. I will talk about her main mess ups and how she could have fixed these problems.

This book starts with Dane Kennedy waking up to a phone call from the hospital, telling him he is still listed as his ex-boyfriend's Power of Attorney and he should come to the hospital.

Vyce immediately wants to keep Dane, and Fyuri wants a to scratch an itch. They fight.

In the movie “Romeo and Juliet” they show a lot more emotion. In the beginning of the original movie when the Capulet put his thumb to his mouth and told the Montague it wasn't toward them they understood and didn't get bothered. The reaction in the modern version is different than the original movie because they reacted by getting super upset. They were so upset that they start to scream which causes commotion. This helps to show us the difference between the two versions and how one shows way more emotion than the other. Baz Luhrmann most likely put more emotion in the modern movie because in today's life styles people act and are more dramatic over anything and everything.

Romeo and Juliet is a classic love story of two young, ill-fated lovers who are stuck in the cross-fire of hatred between their families. But is it really a love story between Romeo and Juliet? Robert Sternberg, professor at Cornell University, develops his theory of love by comparing it to a triangle. In the triangle, each point is represented by one of the three components of love: intimacy, passion, and decision/commitment. Paris, a sickening creep, and Juliet, the young adolescent girl whom Paris craves, display more of the components of love: passion and long-term commitment, compared to Romeo and Juliet.

Romeo and Juliet tells the tale of two young lovers forbidden to be together because of the long-lasting feud between their two families. No matter what their families may think of each other Romeo and Juliet knew that their love for each other was true and they persisted in being with each other. The two bring out the best in each other and have done things that weren’t really thought of as things they would do prior to their meeting, for example, Juliet seems to have brought light into Romeo’s life as opposed to before they met when he came off as this depressed boy that was stuck on a girl that would never like him back. Juliet at the beginning didn’t really seem to be the type to rush into marriage, but after she met Romeo she instantly knew that

When I saw you the first time, I swear I had not loved anyone before then. When you and Rosaline come in compare, it's you who's always better once again.
