Brokeback Mountain: Video Post

I found this video by searching star crossed lovers on you tube. Brokeback Mountain is a Movie about two men who fall in love. It's incredibly hard for them because of the place and time they lived in. No one would ever except their relationship and it takes some time for them to accept it as well. They want to be together however they try as hard as they can not to in fear of one an other.

Romeo & Juliet Photo Post

This photo reminds me of the fight scene in Act Three in Romeo and Juliet. This picture is from West Side Story, a movie based on Romeo and Juliet. In this picture The two rival gangs are about to have a fight. The men on the left side of the photo are based on the Montagues and on the right the Capulets. They are having this fight because one of the members of the gang based on the Montagues has fell in love with the sister of the leader of the gang based on the Capulets. The fight in Romeo and Juliet ends the same way as it does in West Side Story.

Romeo & Juliet: Act Two

I think the that the most interesting thing that happened in Act two was after the party when Romeo went looking for Juliet and found her on her balcony. At first when Romeo saw her she was talking about him and how she wishes that he wasn't a Montague so that they could be together. After he listens to her for a minute he reviles himself, startling her for a moment. Romeo then tells her that they can be together. At the end of their conversation Juliet tells Romeo that she will send one of her men tomorrow to find Romeo and to Discuss what they should do. This scene effects Romeo and Juliet a lot because the next day when Romeo speaks with Nurse, Juliet's man he tells her that Friar Lawrence will marry the two of them later that the day.

I've never been in a situation like this but i don't think i would have acted the same way romeo did. If i was in Romeo's position i don't think i would have left my friends and risked possibly even my life to go see the woman that i am in love with. I don't think i would have decided that i was in love with someone so fast either. Romeo's Actions are very interesting in this scene and i think are the most interesting in Act Two.

Characters in Romeo and Juliet

Mercutio is a witty comic. He is very humorous and will likes to make others laugh. He is a master at puns and is very clever. In act one Mercutio mocks Romeo's views not to insult or act mean towards him but to get a laugh out of him and there friends. It would be fun to be friends with someone like mercutio.

When i think of Mercutio when we are reading i accally image my friend Cosmo. He is also very funny and likes to entertain my friends and i with jokes and puns. If Mercutio was from our time and existed i think that he might be a lot like Cosmo. People, including myself are drawn to people like Mercutio because they social, almost always happy, and want to have fun with there friends. Mercutio is hylarious and genious.
