Today or Better Left Alone “Romeo + Juliet” succeeds to convey Shakespeare ’s play by the same name. The film was filmed in Verona‚ California set in the 1950s. The interesting part of the setting is that both Verona and Venice are cities in Italy and California. When talking about this movie‚ it ’s easy to get lost in the memories of Shakespeare ’s play and‚ while the majority of people will remember most scenes; I enjoy looking outside of the norm‚ something overlooked by the majority of people

highlighted in Shakespeare’s sonnet LXXI. It is through diction‚ sound devices‚ irony‚ and figurative language that Shakespeare reveals his outlook on death and grief.

It sets a strange tone for the rest of the poem while also showing that Shakespeare thinks death should be forgotten
