Keeping his version of the screenplay similar to Shakespeare’s original play‚ the settings‚ costumes‚ and language blended nicely into historical times. Quite a few directors have put their spin on Hamlet. Although

The film that I choose is Scarface. In 1931 Howard Hawks directed the original film "Scarface" based off the novel by Armitae Trail. In any case‚ as a result of its depiction of violence about a ruthless and atrocious gangster‚ which it mixed up lots of controversy with the studios head office about censoring issues‚ which delayed the films debut until the following year of 1932. About half-century later‚ after the first Scarface was released‚ director Brian De Palma made his own remake of the great

In the historical notes of the legend‚ Arthur’s father is Uther Pendragon‚ a famous Romano-British commander and one of Britain’s earlier kings‚ and his mother is Igraine‚ a beautiful young woman who

In William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet‚ Juliet’s cousin Tybalt is portrayed as an aggressive character who despises all who belongs to the House of Montague. Both arrogant and hotheaded‚ Tybalt is proud of being a Capulet‚ and does not possess an ounce of countenance at the mere mention of the name Montague. Tybalt’s challenge to Romeo poses as the greater threat to the “well-being” of Romeo and Juliet’s relationship in comparison to Count Paris’s eagerness to marry Juliet in that his distaste

It seems like every day that a movie is being remade for theaters again‚ but are they any better or have any different of an outcome than they had before.

That means I watched the original 1982 Annie‚ starring Aileen Quinn as Annie; the 1999 Annie‚ starring Alicia Morton as the young orphan; and the

Fortinbras. He is a pretty important character‚ but I believe his part was cut from the film because his part is not a very necessary part in the play‚ and one can still understand the whole of the story without Fortinbras. But in the play‚ the ghost of Hamlet ’s father appears dressed in armor‚ as if ready for battle‚ and Horatio says it must be a sign about their preparation for war. The whole element of war in the play is important because it is always in the back of everyone’s head. Yes‚ all this tragedy
