That’s exactly what happened when Frankenstein by Mary Shelley

Upon looking at both versions of Antigone I was able to recognize the differences and similarities almost immediately. Not only do the differences in setting‚ costumes‚ and how the characters are portrayed stand out; but‚ the interpretation between each version of the play gives the impression that while one director focuses solely on the emotion of the characters‚ Antigone and Ismene‚ the other tries to tie in the drama of Thebes as a whole during this period. For the setting of both films
