Compare And Contrast She's The Man
When a different rendition of a story or play is made many times the characters and plot are slightly changed because of the directors take on the story. In the movie She’s The Man the director, Andy Fickman, creates a modern version of the Shakespearean play 12th Night. The main character is Viola who takes on the role of a man to achieve her goal. Viola is a very ambitious person in both the play and the movie who is willing to risk everything she has for her ultimate goal but is stopped by the infamous love triangle. The movie She’s The Man takes place in a modern world where the main character, Viola, disguises as her brother at his school. In the original play the setting is in 17th century England where the same main character, Viola, wants to infiltrate the duke Orsino’s palace. The overall plot of the play is the same as Viola disguises herself and gets trapped in a love triangle, but in the adaptation of the play Viola's brother is known to be alive but Viola wants to be a part of a soccer team instead of not knowing if her brother is alive or dead like the play.
