    very good job of portraying the emotions the characters were experiencing during the play. The strongest scene in he book would have to be when Walter turned down the money he would get for not moving into the neighborhood . I felt this took a lot of guts on his part. I also thought that this was a turning point in the novel. By Walter not accepting the money it showed that he not only grew through out the play‚ but also that he put many things into perspective. His family became the most integrate

Similar to Baz Luhrmann’s Romeo and Juliet‚ Michael Bogdanov’s Macbeth is a modern adaptation to appeal to younger audiences. Inspiration for Bogdanov is clearly present in Madmax as well‚ as the concept of a dystopian future seems to be directly stripped from the film. The overall movie is a good adaptation of Macbeth‚ focusing on the action and visual aesthetic

    In the play Antigone‚ Sophocles uses many important literary elements‚ but of the most important is irony. Three types of irony he uses are dramatic‚ attitudinal‚ and verbal irony. Sophocles’ use of irony in Antigone has a great impact on the play. If Sophocles did not use irony in his play‚ the events in the scenes would have been very different from what they are now.

    of the play becomes mad and eventually dies. There have been many film adaptations of the play all of which try and remain as close to the original play; however‚ none appear to keep the same meaning of Shakespeare’s text more than director Richard Eyre’s film version of King Lear (1997). Shakespeare focuses in on each character’s flaws and their contributions to the consequences at the end of the play and although Eyre does the same in his film‚ he adds minor actions and scenes to the play to give
