We just finished the movie version of A Midsummer Night's Dream, originally written by William Shakespeare. The words of the actors and actresses are based on the original version of A Midsummer Night's Dream, thus they are quite hard to understand because of the dead words, and different grammar. They used words such as, "thou," "thee," "thy," which are the older expression of "you" and "your." They also use the older grammar in such way Yoda talks in the Star Wars series. These made the movie harder to understand, although I feel like I am a little bit more friendly with those kinds of words and grammar.
A Midsummer Night's Dream is a romantic play written by William Shakespeare. The play includes complicated love, magic, and humor, which makes me think that William Shakespeare was a writer who knew what the audiences are most interested at. Love had been, and still is people's great interest. Shakespeare seems like he knew this and wrote plays and poems about love, so people will watch them and read them. Plus, humor is one of the great factors of this specific play. Everyone likes to see hilarious plays and laugh, and with his great writing skills, Shakespeare created many of the most interesting plays ever known.
We will be starting to read the play, Romeo and Juliet in class. Just like everybody else, its story is well known but only some knows about the details and such. I've tried to read Romeo and Juliet my own, but the words were so confusing that I could not even finish the very first page. I do not know how much Mrs. Gilman would enjoy the two months of Romeo and Juliet. However, I'm guessing that I could like the play, considering the facts that we will find out while reading the play.
