unfortunately‚ Juliet wakes up shortly after. Devastated after seeing Romeo dead; she stabs herself. Throughout the film and the play‚ the actors were well represented; however‚ some actors had more acting flaws than others. One of those being Paris who was played by Robert Bisacco; his acting in the film was not as grand as well as he did not have as many lines in the play versus the film.

The Power of Fate vs. Free Will in Medea and Macbeth Throughout both Medea and Macbeth‚ there is a clear and heavy presence of the gods. This begs the question‚ are the characters in charge of their own destiny‚ or are their fates already written? Fate is described as “that which is inevitably predetermined; destiny.” It can be said that it is the gods who are in charge of creating the character’s fates. In both Medea and Macbeth‚ there is a common theme of placing too much trust into fate‚ rather

Plot versus story: I honestly thought both were the same‚ but it is said that they are different. Story is what happens in a situation and the plot; however‚ is how it occurs or how the events unfold. “Stories are the narrative accounts of what people do‚ they are as old as the human race‚ and they form the substance of daily conversation‚ of newspapers and television‚ of novels and film” (Wilson‚ 132). I do believe that stories are “as old as human race” because without us there will be no stories
