In the movie the fight scene was great because it was a long fierce fight. Franco Zeffelli's film was a ...

... various aspects in life. Through the words expressed by scores of poets and writers throughout history, Will is able to understand love only in the abstract sense.

A transcendental man would make time to praise God and secure his family, as for America's society today; it seems that he cannot make time. All we think about now is when our needs will be served and when we will receive them, in other words, impatience! We must learn to accept the values of waiting and see all optimistic outlooks of the world. As humans, we are given freedom, so we should ...

... thought of being king, he actually considers this regicide. This shows the audience the nature of Macbeth's ambition for imperial power. In addition, it shows that his vivid imagination controls his thoughts so completely that it seems to be reality itself. The speech begins with his realization that he may one day become "king hereafter"; since "two truths are told", only one is left. Banquo senses Macbeth's ill-concealed emotions, asking him, "Why do you start, and seem to fear/Things that do sound so fair?" The answer is revealed in this soliloquy when Macbeth tries to reassure himself that "this supernatural soliciting/Cannot be ill." Then he confesses ...

And in this state she gallops night by night Through lov ...

... that they were insulting God and saw Him as not worty, and cruel. Some believed they were trying to convince them that there was no God. A third example is when Maurya stated that she would finally would have a good nights rest meant that she was glad that she lost her family. They believed that she was heartless, thinking only of herself and that the men in her life didn’t mean a thing to her. The peasants though, now she has no one to take care of, and she can be free.

... she feels the same way as her sister and expresses how Goneril has named her very deed of love. Regan adds a little twist to this and professes that she loves Lear more than her sisters and that Goneril's affection for her father "comes too short." (I.i.71) By uttering these words, Regan shows that her love is even less true than that of her sister's.
