Number of words: 613 - Number of pages: 3

.... to Friar Lawrence's pleas, to leave the tomb and come with him to a nunnery. Instead she tells him "Go, get thee hence, for I will not away." She tries to poison herself but there is none left. When she hears the watch coming she grabs Romeo's dagger and fatally stabs herself. Juliet is so upset she doesn't think and tries to poison herself instead of listening to the Friar, and in desperation of death, kills herself with the dagger. Romeo is careful and considerate in some parts of the play. An example of this is when he tries to convince his friends not to go to the Capulet ball : "'tis no .....

Number of words: 1237 - Number of pages: 5

.... It was a very sad tune and was one that may have been played at a funeral at one point in time. The other type of music I found was song scoring. Since the story took place in the 50’s of 60’s, most of the songs were from that time period. They usually came at points in the movie when nothing much else was happening. Either that or it was source music coming from the radio in the car. It mostly reminded me of care free living, and growing up listening to this type of music in the car with my parents. The few examples that I have are when they are walking down the railroad tracks .....

.... general in his statements left the crowd to understand more easily Brutus’s side of the story and accept him and what he did. Antony begins his speech with an innocent eulogy, but instead incites his audience into a riot, looking for Brutus's death and wrongfully killing Cinna the Poet. He does this by appealing to their emotions. Bringing Caesar's body for everyone to see made them see for themselves the reality of Caesar's death.

.... Proctor to leave his wife Elizabeth for her. Another character with a hidden agenda is Mr. Thomas Putnam, who hopes to take over some of his neighbor's land.

A Puritan belief of the 17th century is that the devil and other demons live in the forest, and that witchcraft is performed there as well.

.... reinscription and subversion of patriarchal ideologies. The tension between the film’s uses of narrative and image works to interrogate and problematize both feminist and antifeminist assumptions about gender, power, and subjectivity. In Alice Doesn’t Teresa de Lauretis claims that Feminist film theory has gone well beyond the simple opposition of positive and negative images, and has indeed displaced the very terms of that opposition to a sustained critical attention to the hidden work of the apparatus. It has shown, for instance, how narrativity works to anchor images to noncon .....

Romeo + Juliet: An E Ticket Ride
Number of words: 745 - Number of pages: 3

.... overshadowing, telling the same parallel story. One could say that there are visually emotional subtitles throughout the movie directing the audience to understand and engage in the most famous love story in an entirely new way. One can argue that this version of Romeo and Juliet would be understood even without spoken words. The camera-work tells the story as clearly as the text. There are very few moments in this movie when the camera stops moving. Like Oliver Stone's Natural Born Killers the editing is fierce and in your face. There is little time to think as the perpetual images .....

.... example of a tool an actor could use to connect himself the life of the character.
