Similarities Between Tony And Tonie

Some similarities are, one, the characters are the same. Winnie foster,in the movie and the book still kept her same name, her feelings about wanting to leave. In the book on page 13 it says , “Winnie Foster sat on the bristly grass just outside the fence” showing that her name is the same. Another similarity is, Mae Tuck hits the man in the yellow over the head with the rifle. In the movie it shows Mae Tuck hitting the man in the yellow suit

With any comparison between a play and its movie counterpart there are bound to be major differences and key similarities between

Although Juliet seems more serious and mature at the beginning, Maria grows up during the course of the movie. Tony and Romeo are just the opposite. Tony knows whom he loves, and that's Maria, while Romeo had a very idealistic view of love in the beginning of the play, maturing as the end neared and he had to deal with Juliet's death. Tony and Maria are also less preoccupied with the bonds of marriage and love in their society, while it's almost like a sin for Romeo and Juliet to be together before being married. This is further emphasized by the fact that religion plays a substantially lesser role in West Side Story than it does in Romeo and Juliet.

The clearest similarity is the feud between the two families. The classic story of Romeo and Juliet revolves around the two young lovers who struggle to stay together, because of the feud between their families. The two’s families have been in a feud for years, Romeo belongs to the Montague family and Juliet belongs to the Capulet family, and both families despise each other. Since the families hate each other so much Romeo and Juliet, or Gnomeo and Juliet, are forced to hide their love. In both the movie Gnomeo and Juliet and Romeo and Juliet the main characters are forced to hide their love due to the two families’ feud. In the movie

The original play Romeo and Juliet and the new movie are almost exactly alike in their script, but the

Unlike the first, the boy actually lost his mother from a battle with cancer. This shows how different our world is today. It also shows his motivation behind his urge to dance and his movement against the council in the town. The second movie has the same script and outline as the first. The difference is the way the characters walk, talk, and act. They wear clothes that are more dated to our pop culture now. Also this movie is different in the fact that nowadays it would be very rare and very uncommon for a city to ban dancing. Have you seen Miley Cyrus lately? I mean she isn’t the first to do something crazy. In my opinion, this second movie is viewed and focused more along the lines of the love story between the boy and the rebellious girl. The film and the tunes were intertwined to create a pop-culture phenomenon unlike any we're likely to see anymore, outside of perhaps "Glee," simply because we consume entertainment so differently 27 years later (Lemire). I personally love the second one, but it wasn’t a big deal to everyone like the first was. I never even knew about it until it came on the television one day while I was bored watching TV. Our culture today is more worried and focused on other things. No one cares about old timey tales of little things that government or church kept us from doing. Everyone pretty much does what they want to.

Comparing the movie to the film, it follows the same concept although there is a ton of differences. First off, they have a fake wedding inside of a dress shop in the movie and in the play the couple gets secretly married, but it’s still the real deal. A big thing that I noticed is the death situation compared to the play, in the play Romeo kills Juliet’s cousin, which leads Romeo to drink poison because he doesn’t think Juliet loves him, which causes Juliet to commit suicide using his

     First off, the biggest difference is the time periods of each movie. The older movie was set in Early Renaissance times. The newer movie is set in the early ninety’s. Another difference is the use of special effects. In the

very big similarity. In my opinion, the movie was better because you could actually see whats going on,

In my opinion, I think that at the end of West Side Story, Tony and Maria should have died together because it makes it more emotional and more dramatic which I like Romeo and Juliet better because they really confessed that they love each other and willing to die just to see them in their next life. In West Side Story, I felt that Maria didn’t really love Tony. Also, it made me insecure because they are talking race and well, in reality, I do not like the fact that the story brought it up and I would be one of the people to walk away from the movie theater if the movie was on. It is not right to say mean things about race. I also thought that in West Side Story, there was so many dances and songs between each scene, so much I can’t even remember.

In both versions of the film, there were many characteristics and events that were extremely similar. Both took place in New York City. It had the same scene when George Wilson killed Gatsby. It also had when Gatsby, Tom, Daisy and Jordan going to the gas station. Also had when Myrtle Wilson Got hit by Daisy in the yellow car. Then when daisy hit Myrtle it showed Gatsby washing and cleaning the car. Gatsby having parties every week. Then also had Tom always cheating on daisy. Gatsby and Tom had the same cars. Nick always lived next to Gatsby.

Even though the movie kept a few similarities, much of the film was different. An example of this would have to be the relationship between Forrest and Jenny. As seen in the movie, Jenny and Forrest have a close relationship from grade school to high school. Then as the movie progresses you see the transformation of their friendship slowly becomes more at the times Forrest is close to Jenny. But when they are far apart it seems like it is only Forrest who is still caring

Shakespeare and Toni Morrison both depict characters that are seeking something unrealistic in order to resolve an inner issue. Pecola searches for beauty by obtaining blue eyes, which represent acceptance into society. Whereas Hamlet seeks revenge for the death of his father, which represents a means of reparation. While both characters are driven by an internal struggle they are also heavily influenced by key characters that affect their actions and thoughts in the book/play. Hamlet is pressured by the ghost of his father to avenge his death by killing his Uncle Claudius and in doing so attain peace;

Is it possible to not be good at loving someone? The better way of rephrasing it is, how do you love like Romeo and Tony do to their significant other? Both Romeo and Tony fall in love as easily as picking a flower and taking care of it. Romeo and Juliet are two star-crossed lovers who fell in love at first sight and sacrifice their lives to be with each other. Romeo, the son of Montague, attends a party which is held by Lord Capulet, where Romeo will see his first love Rosaline.

Both Creon of Sophocles’ Antigone and Achilles of Homer’s The Iliad end up allowing the body of their enemy a proper burial. During the time following the death of Hector, Achilles is in a position very similar to that which Creon deals with in Antigone. Both men show similar flaws, and face similar struggles. The difference between the two men is only subtly discernible until the telling moment when each man is faced with pressure to change his stance on the fate of the fallen warrior. Each man’s initial reaction is quite telling of his character, and the motives behind each man’s decision (although the motives are debatable) also help to expose his true nature. In the end, there seems to be a quality within each man which lies above
