Romeo And Juliet Old English Play

Decent Essays
In the movie, the actors of Romeo and Juliet talk about Shakespeare's felt and thought while making this play. Queen Elizabeth was the main person they were allowed to act.

Know we don't even learn cursive and we don't really understand old English, unless you are from other country and you do speak it.
The way they used to dress was amazing, especially Queen Elizabeth I because she was the only one who could wear the rich colors and the important people color and cloths. In the article it doesn't really talk how important

Maybe you do but it isn't as bad as back then! In Romeo and Juliet their parents contributed to the tragedy of assassination in Julius Caesar, which throws Rome into civil war. The article on 'Elizabeth's England" and the movie said that. Sickness was also one of the most reasons how most people died fast and easier in the century. There was also lots of poorness, and lots of wore fens! The houses where different then know. Something really grows is that people only showered once per year or so. But if you were royal then you showered at least four times per

    1) Creating my book trailer was like a roller coaster ride, it started out exciting and nervously and leaving you feeling of absence, in a way at the end. I would definitely say the best parts in this project were exploring the new technique of editing, stop motion and spend times with friends.

On the other hand, I think the worst parts were the editing and the restricted time that we have.…
