In the modern version of Romeo and Juliet the director Baz Luhrmann decided to keep the original dialouge. I think thats clever. But I had and i'm sure some other people had some problems understanding it. But I think the directors purposely put in visuals so that people could understand what they were talking about. I think this is excellent way of making the audience get it.
Though in the play movie and pretty much every other version of it the dialogue is beautiful and always amazes me. I think the way he uses descriptive langue keeps the audience interested. Shakespeare's use of langue as of other play writers is a very useful tool in his plays. But Shakespeare doesn't just use, he takes full advantage of it.
I think Shakespear was a brilliant and amazing writer and I hope that I have a chance to read more of him later on. Maybe i'll even learn to write like he does.
