Movie (Film) Version of William Shakespeares Romeo and Juliet :: Movie Film comparison compare contrast

Movie (Film) Version of Romeo and Juliet there have been many romantic films made in the past as well as now in the present, from Wuthering Heights to Pretty Woman. But, genius and only(a) of the close romantic of all films is the paper of Romeo and Juliet. It is safe to say that most people are familiar with this story. A couple so opinionated to be together, ended up tragically in the arms of unity a nonher because of their feuding families. Today, a new film director attempts to recreate this Shakespearean story by adding a little of his on twists to it. Using the same parley as Shakespeare, this director sets the story in modern times. Romeo and Juliet, the movie, gives audience in the twentieth century a taste of a new and privy flavor to this well-known love story. The setting of Romeo and Juliet, as expected, was totally antithetical from other settings in the past. This setting, however, was not necessarily set in modal value of how people today wo uld live. The story was set more fantasy-like. Because of the setting, the deaths of the people in this movie did not seem as moving as to the old movies. For some reason, the setting of Mercutios death interfered with this supposedly poetic scene. A disjointed down stage on a sandy beach does not seem to fit well together. The setting seemed pretty artificial. Also, the scene when one of the Montagues died at the gas station did not seem as depressing as would be if any other person was to die. This scene was the start one so, the audience could have been distracted by the dialogue and therefore, not paying attention to the death to much. In the beginning of the movie, it was hard to lay to the dialogue with the atmosphere. The dialogue was way on the other side of the timeline compared to the setting. virtually of the audience was even laughing. Perhaps that was why it was so difficult to come about the movie with all those distractions. What was quite remar kable about this movie was how the director incorporated todays problems and events with the old Shakespearean dialogue.
