Movie vs. Play Most parts of "A Midsummer Night’s Dream‚"� the movie‚ met my expectations. Many of the characters were well fitted to their part. Calista Flockheart was a great choice for an actress to portray Helena and her jealousy towards the beautiful Hermia. She played Helen’s part just as I had imagined. Hermia‚ on the other hand‚ was not as well casted‚ in my opinion‚ because I expected Hermia to have long‚ straight hair not curly and short. Someone like Gwyneth Paltrow might’ve been more

to fulfillment of desire In A Midsummer Night’s Dream love is the one thing that that can give fulfillment of desire. Henry V has barriers to fulfill the desire of his people and to keep bringing them peace and happiness. The barriers that I see to fulfillment of desire in Othello are the struggle that Othello and Desdemona are in a mixed relationship.

For example in the beginnings of each story they are both beginning after

Frankenstein book was a little long to read and not very interesting to me. The pictures were good to have to somewhat visualize what was going on‚ but otherwise the book was a waste of time to me. I could never really get into it very much making it difficult for me to read it without getting bored of it. We also just finished the movie today with Carrie Fisher which was weird not seeing her shooting a blaster at storm troopers‚ but that is beside the point. It did not follow the book that we read

As the men get closer he has no choice but to cut his own arm off in order to escape‚ this action is an actual animal reaction when their limb gets caught
