Many classic Shakespeare plays have been turned into films over the years. Some of the film adaptations are very close to the original story, but some stray away from the original play it is based on. Doing a modern version of one of Shakespeare’s works is tough because the language that Shakespeare uses is very important to the plays. In fact, if you did not know that the movie was based on a play, you may not even know. I think that this is the case for many when it comes to Shes the Man, which is based loosely on Twelfth Night by William Shakespeare.
The acting is spot-on in this film. Some other interpretations of Macbeth through film, or even in a theater production, can tend to be overdramatized and can really turn you off from the film/play from the get go. This is not the case in the Goold film.

Regan Coseni Mme Poliquin English – EAE 4U 11/11/11 Critical Review of Hamlet Films, Act 3: Zeffirelli vs. Branagh There are numerous different portrayals of William Shakespeare’s “Hamlet”, whether they are in the form of films, books or theatrical plays, they are all better than the other in different aspects and for specific reasons. In this critical review, we will make a comparison of Act 3 between Franco Zeffirelli’s film version of “Hamlet” starring Mel Gibson and Kennith Branagh’s film version of “Hamlet” starring Branagh, himself. First, as far as faithfulness to sequence and language in comparison to the original written version of Act 3, Branagh’s is pretty well identical in both senses. On the other hand, Zeffirelli’s version switches a few things up. To start with, in the original version as well as Branagh’s version of “Hamlet”, the “To be or not to be” soliloquy comes before Hamlets encounter with Ophelia, where as in Zeffirelli’s version of the play, Hamlet’s “To be or not to be” soliloquy comes after the scene where he speaks with Ophelia.
Now, by the stock and honor of my kin, To strike him dead I hold it not a sin.” (Allen et al. 963) Not only is Tybalt hot-headed and confrontational, his motive is to murder Romeo.

The reason that Tybalt was a villain was because in the play he was the only Capulet that actually tried starting with the other family. Tybalt tried fighting Romeo but instead Mercutio jumped in for Romeo and Tybalt killed him. But after they fight Tybalt and Romeo fight and Romeo kills Tybalt. Also in the play Tybalt was basically asking to be killed because he started with them for no reason.
What villain touched his body, that did stab, And not for justice?”(4.3.18-21) In this quote, Brutus is saying that no man who partook in Julius Caesar's downfall did so for self gain. Brutus's and every other conspirator slayed Caesar because they honestly believed that it would be what was best for Rome. Brutus evokes the emotion in the audience in order to get his point across. Brutus's honor can be proved through another very important
However, it would be a blatant falsehood to say that this film adaptation is free from inaccuracy, somehow above reproach, or indeed perfect. There were times when the story was subjected to certain indignities wherein the original storyline was tossed to the wayside in favor of a more cinematic approach. This is to be expected in such a transition from print to screen. At times, such changes were hardly noticeable. Others however, left one wondering if it was indeed the same story, or merely someone slapping the name of Shelley onto a film in hopes of gaining some
