Andy Warhol once said, "They say that time changes
things, but actually you have to change them
yourself. " Two hundred fifty years passed between
the original Romeo and Juliet and the premiere of
West Side Story on Broadway in 1957. However, time
did not change the message of the story, simply
the creators unique visions evolved. Shakespeare's
delivery of the timeless tale of desperate love in
his classic Romeo and Juliet proves to only
intensify through retelling and modern
interpretation. Aud...

Romeo And Juliet Friar Laurence
938 words
To what extent is Friar Laurence responsible for
the deaths of Romeo and Juliet? The Friar is
answerable for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet, but
only to some degree. Often, because of his
involvement in the lives of the lovers, Friar
Laurence can be seen as more responsible for their
deaths than he actually is, although in the last
scene the Friar is partially responsible for the
death of Juliet. However his responsibility is
mild compared to the accountability of other
influences in the lovers ...

Romeo And Juliet West Side Story

The play West Side Story, by Arthur Laurent's, is
based upon the play Romeo and Juliet, by William
Shakespeare. Despite a few differences, both
works, in essence, have the same plot. The source
of violence in Romeo and Juliet and West Side
Story is the ever-present hatred between families
and between gangs, although, because of the
star-cross lovers motif in Romeo and Juliet, the
hatred plays a larger role in producing the ending
of West Side Story than it does the ending of
Romeo and Juliet. Th...

Fate In Romeo And Juliet
468 words
Fate is the power that is supposed to settle ahead
of time how things will happen. Romeo and Juliet
lives were ruled by fate. Even though they thought
they should be together fate had different plans
for both of them. Fate did not rule in their
favour. A large part of the beliefs for both Romeo
and Juliet involved fate. They believed in the
stars, and that their actions weren't always their
own. Romeo, for example, 1. 4. 107 - 113 says,
"Some consequence yet hanging in the stars... by
some vile ...

Juliet there are many instances in which choice
and chance play a key part in what occurs in the
play. If these chances were not taken or by chance
did not occur maybe Romeo and Juliet would have
escaped to Mantua. Although in the end their
course was predetermined, it could have been
altered in many different sections. To start,
Romeo had many choices to make. In turn they all
went against him and resulted in his death. But

Romeo And Juliet Deaths Of Romeo
1,300 words
One view of the play sees Romeo and Juliet as
victims of fate. To what extent do you agree with
this? Having a complex plot, and too many deeply
involved characters, we cannot simply state that
Romeo and Juliet were purely victims of fate. The
tragic deaths of Romeo and Juliet, and the play
itself, are anchored on three notions: that of
fate, chance and choice. Fate contributed, though
it was not the sole factor in the deaths of the
young lovers. The many? unstoppable? events,

The problem that faced Baz Luhrmann when he was
directing the new version of Romeo and Juliet was
that he didn´ t know whether there would be
an audience for Shakespearean stories in a modern
culture. So Luhrmann didn´ t make this film
with the old-fashioned, Shakespeare purist in
mind. Instead, by using lively, modern images
(swimming pool etc. ) with a modern rock
soundtrack and young good-looking popular actors,
he has taken Romeo and Juliet to an audience that
would normally thin...

Romeo And Juliet Tragic Hero
1,425 words
What makes a tragic hero? In all of Shakespeare's
tragedies, the hero must suffer and in some if not
most cases, die. What makes a tragic hero? One has
to be a man of high estate: a king, a prince or an
officer of some high rank. It was common practice
for Shakespeare to tell of his tragic hero through
the voices of others around his hero. This way we
can understand his conflicts, his struggles, and
flaws. Usually the heros own actions and
obsessions bring him to his tragic end. (Bradley

version of Romeo and Juliet is unusual because it

interesting setting for a play written in the 15
th century. Luhrmann manages to create a movie
that is remarkably faithful to the plays vision
and sense of tragedy without drastically changing
the play. The characters of Romeo and Juliet are a
