Anticipating Shakespeare

I have enjoyed Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream the movie. I have enjoyed this this movie because of the interesting language and because of the many twists this story takes. Shakespeare uses poetic language which can become confusing at times but adds greatly to the setting and makes his literature unique. The basic plot in this movie is simple but there are many details. I enjoy the characters sometimes however it is hard fore me to remember some of the characters names because they are somewhat strange. I have enjoyed the characters and there language  in this movie although it is sometimes hard to interpret.

i am excited to be reading Romeo and Juliet this next week for i have only heard good things of this story and i have been enjoying Shakespeare's other story A Midsummer night's Dream. I also look forward to be reading this story in class because it is in play form. I enjoy acting and hopefully we will be doing some. After watching the movie A Midsummer Night's Dream i think that myself and the rest of the class will be ready for the language in Romeo and Juliet. I think i will like the book because i'm am enjoying watching one of Shakespeare's other stories and because the books are always better than the movies.

I enjoyed the movie too, and I agree with you about the poetic language. I think that it adds a lot to the story and sets it apart from other literature. I'm excited to start reading Romeo and Juliet as well.
