... (Act II, Scene 6, Line 4) which is a very intelligent thing to say. Whereas, in the movie they kiss and giggle the entire time. This leads the viewer to believe that Franco Zefferelli wanted the two to look like fools, that they could not do anything the way it is normally done because they are children in search of quick love. This is bad because it is not very realistic. In real-life, young adults would take the matter seriously because they know it is a major step in life. Because the play is not entirely trying to make the two look bad, it is the better production. Another major difference in the mood of the play and the movie is in the funeral scen ...

... placed second in her father's affections, and despised by all others. Bianca on the other hand, is identified as the favorite, playing the long-suffering angel, increasing Baptisa's distinction between the two. As Katherine recognizes her sister's strategy, her reaction is as one can imagine how another would react suffering this type of bias for so many years. She is hurt and she seeks revenge. This is seen in Act II, Scene I, when Katherine sums up her own state: “I will go sit and weep/ Till I can find occasion of revenge” (35-36). It is an immature response, but the only one she knows, and it serves the dual purpose of cloaking her hurt. The tran ...

... the sad part is that it could. Hamlet's death could have been avoided many times. Hamlet had many opportunities to kill Claudius, but did not take advantage of them. He also had the option of making his claim public, but instead he chose not too. A tragic hero doesn't need to be good. For example, MacBeth was evil, yet he was a tragic hero, because he had free will. He also had only one flaw, and that was pride. He had many good traits such as bravery, but his one bad trait made him evil. Also a tragic hero doesn't have to die. While in all Shakespearean tragedies, the hero dies, in others he may live but suffer "Moral Destruction". In Oedipu ...

... the play to indicate that Othello was dark colored. The first image we, as a reader, are given of Othello is that of a black ram having sexual relations with Desdemona. Iago’s line reads “Even now, now, very now, an old black ram is tupping your white ewe” (1.1.88-90). Later on in the play, there are many other references to Othello's color and race. Desdemona's father, Brabantio, is appalled to learn that his daughter is having a relationship with a “sooty bosom” (2.3.27). Emilia refers to Othello as a black devil (5.2.132). This scene does not suggest that Emilia is racist in any way. She most likely was angry with Othello because he had just killed his innocent ...

... thane of Cawdor! All hail Macbeth, that shalt be king hereafter!” (A 1, S 3, 48). Here, Macbeth is interested in what the witches have to say, but he does not really believe them. A few minutes later, Ross enters. He tells Macbeth that the thane of Cawdor is in line for death and that Duncan has named Macbeth the new thane of Cawdor. Now, Macbeth is absolutely shocked. The witches prophecy has come true! He can not believe it! But now Macbeth has a lot more on his mind; the third prophecy about becoming the King. Macbeth knows that if something were to happen to Duncan, Malcolm and Donalbain, Duncan's sons, would be the rightful heirs to the throne. How can M ...

... that he loved the Roman people more than Caesar. Brutus was the head of the conspiracy because the Romans respected his judgement and loyalty to the Roman Empire.

Cassius strongly dislikes Caesar personally. He sees Brutus as the person that will unite the nobles in the conspiracy. Cassius tries to use Brutus to achieve his goal. His main goal is to remove Caesar from p ...

... Prospero, a European noble, had imposed himself on an island, already inhabited. Prospero is depicted as a worthy man, who was usurped from his throne. The reader has automatic sympathy for the character. This allows him more leeway for wrong doing by creating room for it within the reader's mind. Prospero came to the island with his daughter to find it already inhabited by two savages. Upon arrival, Prospero brought his “new” ideas with him, and began to force them upon these two savages, Sycorax and Caliban. He believed that his new ideas were better, such as slavery opposed to freedom, which he imposed on Caliban. “Dull thing, I say so; he, that ...

... and thought about what he said before acting on them he would not have gotten into so many fights. His jokes were probably taken lightly be his friends Romeo and Benvolio because they were accustomed to hearing Mercutio's voice constantly. Mercutio should not have tried to tease Tybalt because of the rivalry between Tybalt's family and Romeo's family. While avenging Mercutio, Romeo should have thought about the consequences of slaying Tybalt. On one hand he filled the urge to kill the man who had killed his friend. On the other hand he killed his wife's cousin. How can one justify killing a member of their wife's family? Another consequence he should ...

... all the requirement, it is good and enjoyable to listen to but not the way that Mozart did his. Salieri's music is talented but not a work of genius. Mozart was very success in the court with his excellent music. Salieri's jealous of Mozart became obsessed with conspiring against Mozart and eventually kills him. Mozart cannot finish his last piece of music, "The Requiem", it was never completed. Because Mozart had died like a pauper, his grave had been left unmarked, his body unidentified. In the end of the movie, Salieri realize he was not defeated God, for Mozart's music endures while Salieri's fades into obscurity. The behavior of Mozart is often portraye ...
