Everyone has had that moment when they blame one person or character for the problem or conflict‚ correct? The same can be said for the plot of A Midsummer Night’s Dream by William Shakespeare. The entire plot of the play is mostly Puck (the Fairy King Oberon’s servant)’s fault. First and foremost‚ Puck messed up!

Personally‚ I prefer the original play of “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” only slightly more than the film adaption that was recreated in the late 1990’s. Not only had William Shakespeare managed to fully grasp the meaning of true love‚ but had also comprehended the dark times that came alongside such an influential and overpowering emotion.

The three movie adaptations of A Midsummer Night’s Dream‚ from 1935‚ 1968‚ and 1999‚ are all unique‚ despite showing the same scene‚ the introduction to the fairy world.

However‚ the best adaptation is the one from 1999‚ for not only does it have
