For similarities they both have love but they both gain it and lose it. For example hitch losses sarah and ben losses andie. They both also find love in an odd way but it happens. For example how albert falls for alegra and how both andie and ben fall for each other even though they did each other wrong. Some of the differences were how it happened like in hitch it was because sarahs friend got screwed over and she blamed the date doctor.
Hoping to end relations between Daisy and Jay, Tom did not hold back when confronting Gatsby. This whole situation is very ironic considering Tom is also having an affair with Myrtle and Daisy knows all about it. Tom only thought about himself and his image and got terribly mad because there was the chance of him losing his wife. George Wilson, compared to Tom, acts a lot like him except the abusiveness towards his wife, Myrtle. George owned a gas station in the Valley of Ashes and was very poor.
(Stabs herself) There rust and let me die.”-P. 579 lines (169-171). It’s really sad that all of this could have been avoided if Juliet would’ve just left with Romeo or if their families gave up their hatred for one another. Throughout Romeo and Juliet, Romeo and Juliet’s personality drastically changes. At first Romeo was love-sick and Juliet didn’t want anything to do with marriage. Then they meet, fall in love and get married.
George Wilson is like Gatsby in the sense that they are both dreamers hoping for a better future. Myrtle Wilson is George Wilsons Wife, and also Tom Buchanan’s lover. She is tired of living in the run down valley of the ashes and that’s why she became tom’s lover. Unfortunately for her she only is an object of desire for tom Buchanan. She ends up getting killed at the end of the book in a hit and run accident with Gatsby.
I can’t help what’s past.’ She began to sob helplessly. ‘I did love him once — but I loved you too.’” (140) Gatsby expects that Daisy will be happy to leave Tom behind and break off her marriage with him. Gatsby's dream has been to build a fortune and reclaim the love that he once lost because, as he sees it, he was too poor for Daisy when they first met. This proves my claim because this displays, in Daisy’s words, that Gatsby did expect too much, he expected for her to make a big deal in front of Tom. This proves my thesis because we can see that he expects a lot of Daisy.
John's motive to commit suicide comes from the deep love he feels for his wife; "it was not what he actually accomplished by means of the sacrifice…but the sacrifice itself, the gesture – something done for her sake" (Ross 161). John thinks that the result of his death will be the freedom of his wife. The tragic irony is that it's only after sleeping with Steven that Ann is able to renew her love for John and calm her inner storm, but by doing so she looses the object of her love, John, altogether. Alternatively, if she hadn't betrayed John and he hadn't come upon that fateful view, then he wouldn't have sacrificed himself for her, but (and there's always a ‘but' in fiction) Ann would still be emotionally conflicted and would still be unable to love and appreciate her husband. Irony also envelops Ann and Steven's immoral copulation because it was initially John's idea for Steven to visit while she was alone.
Hamartia, or tragic flaw is an essential theme of Shakespearean tragedy as it can provide contrast to a previously successful life by contributing to a drastic change of events. Chris Wilton begins a jubilant life with a high paying, success job as well as his spouse Chloe that adores him dearly. However he wants more, sometime that his wife cannot provide, but Nola Rice can. The seventh rule in the Ten Commandments in Christianity states “Thou shall not commit adultery.” The act of adultery is given a poor and immoral outlook by society, as it is believed that marriage binds two indefinitely. However it is
Stella is willing to look past everything Stanley does because she loves him and that makes her the fool of the play. After finding out Stanley raped her sister she still chooses Stanley though she asks herself “what have I done to my sister?” Stella is so stuck on her life as it is that she’s not willing to accept that Stanley is not the man she once deceived herself he was and that internal conflict is what makes her a huge
Then tries to win over John, but he is faithful now and then turns her plan against her in attempt to save his wife. Lastly, in The Great Gatsby envy is represented more as the story goes on, when the love of Daisy Buchanan begins to fade from her husband Tom and toward childhood sweetheart Jay Gatsby. As it continues Tom begins to envy the power of Jay Gatsby, the mystery behind his name and his past, and the love and attention he is receiving from his wife. So once Myrtle Wilson (Tom's Mistress) is killed by Daisy in a car accident Tom uses this as an opportune time to
For instance, they are clueless the whole play of what Juliet is doing and how she feels. Capulet the clueless says to Paris, “Look you, she loved her kinsman Tybalt dearly and so did I” (153). Capulet even thinks that Juliet is stuck morning over the death of her cousin when she is truly morning of the exile of her love. Lady Capulet does not even know her own daughters age. Their oblivion to the whole situation causes a big issue such as the deaths of Romeo in Juliet.
