In William Shakespeare’s tragedy Romeo and Juliet‚ act 4 scene 2 and scene 4 should be put together. Both scenes include preparations for the wedding the following day‚ but they are too weak as separate scenes.When Capulet sent one of his servants out to get some cooks‚ “Sirrah‚ go hire me twenty cunning cooks.” (4.2.2).

That was the real value for the film for me was to see young women from rural areas look
