The animated tale Gnomeo & Juliet is a children oriented movie which adapted from William Shakespeare’s classic tragedy work, Romeo & Juliet. The story is introduced to the audience by a little gnome reading a prologue on a stage with a lighting focuses on him, saying "The story you are about to see has been told before. A lot. And now we are going to tell it again. But different. It’s about two star-crossed lovers kept apart by a big fued. No one knos how this feud started, but it’s all quite entertaining". It’s a part of speech by a little gnome in the opening of movie. It’s true that the story will be told in different ways. It is totally different in the characters. Beside it’s a animated film, in which obviously do not be played by the natural human, the characters are played by garden gnomes.It’s not only different, but also clever and funny, because they can only move when human are not watching them and will turn back as gnomes when human realize them. The other differents with Shakespear’s work are the setting. In this movie, the Montagues and Capulets are two humans who live side by side as neighbors that share a duplex on Verona Drive in present day Stratford-Upon-Avon. Nevertheless, they live in feuding. Mr. Capulet and Miss Montague do not like each other so naturally.Their backyards are landscaped with so many flowers and filled beautifully with colorfull garden ornaments, and especially gnomes. There the gnomes are, live inthe garden of Mr. Capulet and Miss
The play was set in Verona where two families of Montague and Capulet are at war with each other. The feud that has been going on for so long, people have forgotten when and why it started. The hatred between those two families was so powerful, even their servants hated each other even though they weren’t related. This can be seen through the opening of the play, where in the public square of Verona, the two servants were having an argument. In the Act 2, Scene2
The film adaptation of the religious musical Godspell composed Stephen Schwartz and John-Michael Tebleak attempts to revitalize Christianity by expressing the teachings of Christ as expressed in the Gospel of Matthew in contemporary terms. Structured through parables primarily sung but also enacted through puppetry, storytelling, and skits; the main point of the film is to translate complex philosophical ideas into terms easily understood by a modern-day audience. In the Bible, Jesus illustrates his teaching to his disciples through stories of everyday situations. The play/film accomplishes the same task, but because Godspell is set thousands of years later, the details of the stories are once again modernized to the intended audience. The
The plays that we watched were similar in many ways, but also very different. They used a different way of visualization and created a different setting. Although they may be dissimilar, they both were very entertaining and amusing. Additionally, one way that they are different is that they made the reader/audience visualize the story differently.
Romeo and Juliet: Play vs. Movie One difference in the movie that is immediately apparent is the time period. The play Romeo and Juliet, was set in the 1400s therefore it contained more old and ancient items. The movie was set in 1996 so newer and modern items were used.
Two more theatre’s followed as the taste for theatre’s grew. The Curtain n 1557 and The Rose in 1587. I love the movie of Romeo and Juliet. I watched the Disney version about where Juliet and Romeo are gnomes its set as the same but it’s a little different but is also a really good movie.
The setting of the movie is the first obvious difference that can be seen. The movie was set in New York City, New York in 2000 while the play was set in Elsinore, Denmark in the late middle ages. This greatly affects the way the movie is viewed because it is essentially an entirely different world. In the movie there are video cameras, cars, phones and skyscrapers, all things that obviously weren’t around during Shakespeare’s time. Even if the movie and the play had been based in the same year, the story still would have been slightly different.

The first time Romeo and Juliet meet is at the Capulet party, this is portrayed in both movies differently, in the 1996 version Romeo is walking by an aquarium, looking at the fish, when he sees juliet, their eyes meet and follow each other, but just as they were going to come face to face, Juliet’s nurse grabs her, and takes her away to dance with Paris her future husband. In the 1968 version Romeo is far away from Juliet, and he hides behind a column, she is dancing with some people, but she is too far away, and has lots of people between Romeo and Juliet.
The 1995 film adaptation of Sense and Sensibility, directed by Ang Lee and originally written by Jane Austen, has timeless elements in its composition. Starring Emma Thompson, also the screenwriter, and Kate Winslet as Elinor and Marianne Dashwood, the movie tells of two heroines and their struggle between balancing idealism and reality. As young, female adolescents of the 1800s, they are responsible for finding husbands that can support them financially; and following their father’s death and loss of money, this becomes even more emphasized. But, they come to struggle when having to choose between what their hearts crave, and what their minds know is best.

In times of bloodshed and malice, do you stay devoted to your family and companions or do you pursue the love of your life?

That being said, there have been abundant amounts of renditions featuring the same scenarios. This essay will be analyzing and contrasting how well the 1996 version of Romeo and Juliet and the movie Gnomeo and Juliet correspond to Shakespeare's original
Gnomeo & Juliet: A Shakespeare remake Everybody knows the story of the two star-crossed lovers Romeo and Juliet, but the gnome-version that is something entirely new.

Constance and John fall in love, and she is convinced that her lover is innocent.
A time period difference in the play than in the movie is that they all use swords to fight with. In the movie they use guns. It makes it seem more violent and easier to kill someone quickly than using swords. The play takes place in the 1500’s, in the movie the time is in the 1990’s. This is obviously very different because the time back then in the 1500’s was very different from the 1990’s.
And the feud between the two families creates chaos in the community. The whole movies have kept the track of originality in its important characters, scenes and the flow of the play. The story starts with a fight with scene between the Montague boys and the Capulet’s and ends with the death of the lovers, Romeo and Juliet. However, there are
An awful movie I’ve got seen Gone Girl is an awful movie I’ve got seen since its plot is illogical and the characterization of some roles is inconsistent. The movie narrates a unordinary “loving story”, the plot of which is unordinary, suspense and thrilling, while the theme of this movie has nothing to do with it. At the end of the film, Amy came back, standing in the bathroom with her whole body covered with blood, spit out the so-called truth of marriage imperturbably and even remorselessly.
It seems as though the film is open to interpretation. The main character, Nina is an unreliable narrator as
