Mr Waugh

For those who have noticed certain things happened before another thing these posts are not in order.

Mercutio meets Benvolio and Balthasar then Tybalt and his kinsmen arrive at the beach, they exchanged words and Tybalt made an insult to Mercutio.The fight was held up when Romeo slowly tried to confess he was related to Tybalt.The fight continued after this confessions and soon after sharing blows Romeo stops Mercutio from continuing the fight and gets shot he then dies.Tybalt runs away only to be chased down by Romeo, the car chase finishes in front of the two houses where the cars crash and Romeo uses Tybalt’s own gun to kill him outside, the gunshot is heard by Juliet.

This is recovered from the film

Romeo has trespassed into the house of the Capulet for the party and has seen Juliet then when they are alone Romeo gets a closer look through a fish tank.

This information has come from the film my class is watching.

A interpretation between the book and the film could be the swords in the play are represented by guns in the film.This is probably because the film is supposed to be modern and in this day many guns are used.This adds to the film as it is engaging with the day and age we live in.

Romeo is trespassing in the house of Capulet. He falls in love at first sight with a girl he sees at the masked ball after previously arguing with Benvolio (his cousin) that Rosaline is the prettiest lady ever to be made.

Paris (a potential suitor) has declared his intention marry Juliet(Daughter of Old Capulet) who is thirteen years of age. However Old Capulet has said that Juliet is too young to marry.

Romeo finds out that Rosaline(Capulet guest) is going to the Capulet party. He sees this oppotunity to express his feelings for Rosaline.

I think fate is a mental and psychological thing that people believe in if an event happens and for some reason they was not at the scene of the accident because of a delay or they survived the accident they claim it was down to fate or destiny. However in the day of Romeo, fate was what God had intended for you.
