In both the play and the movie, they both set in Fair Verona “In fair Verona, where we lay our scene.” (Folder Digital Text,n.d. ).

Characterization of both Romeo and Juliet impact the mood. Some differences that changed the ending in the play and the movie is how they pursue
A similarity between the story and the play is the part where both Juliet’s say they wish that their Romeo’s was not from the rival family. In Gnomeo and Juliet, Juliet say, “why must you wear blue,”(Gnomeo and Juliet). In Romeo and Juliet, Juliet says, “Deny thy father and refuse thy name,”(Folger Digital Texts, n.d.). They both wish they were from the same house/garden because they believe they could be together easier that way. This similarity gave the mood sad and heartbreaking mood. A difference between the movie and play is the fact that Juliet from the movie confessed her love for Romeo to their families, but Juliet from the play didn’t. In Gnomeo and Juliet, Juliet tells everyone she loves him after they believe he got ran over by a truck in the middle of the street. Her confession had an impact on the ending of their story. In Romeo and Juliet, Juliet never told her parents about her love and marriage with Romeo. Juliet’s silence had an affect to their ending. Gnomeo Juliet speaking out and expressing her love helped the families come to terms with their relationship, but Juliet and Romeo’s secrecy of their relationship took part in their deaths. They both were from rival families and loved each other, but they chose different paths and made different choices. This difference gave the movie a joyful mood, but the play, a sentimental and sorrowful

By the end, the death of Romeo and Juliet finally bring the reconciliation to these two families. It is fate that the two most shall-not meet people fall in love and it love that eventually won against hatred. Since then, there have been many different versions of Romeo and Juliet, whether it was for film, stage, musicals. These different recontextualised adaptions change the original play by many ways, some modernise the language, environment, props as well as changing the original characteristics of some characters. Out of all the different adaptions of Romeo and Juliet, two stood out the most. One was the Romeo and Juliet (1996) and directed by Baz Luhrmann and the other one was Romeo and Juliet Broadway (2013) play version,
Paramount aspect of the movie and the play, the theme, were the same, and the overall messages in both were the same. For example, one main message in the stories was that love conquers all. This was demonstrated in both the play and the film when Romeo and Juliet kept secretly meeting each other even though they knew it was against their families’ wishes. In one scene of both the movie and the play Romeo and Juliet even got married and died together so that even if they could not be together on earth they would be together in death.
a major step in life. Because the play is not entirely trying to make the two look bad, it is the better product. & nbsp; Another major difference in the mood of the play and the movie is in the funeral scene. The funeral scene of the play is a very serious event. Juliet's family is very upset and thinks that they are the cause of her "death". Also, the Friar. soothes the family of the loss of young Juliet (Act IV, Scene 5, Line 65). However, in the movie version of the funeral scene, again everyone is sad but This time the Friar lets out a giggle as he pretends to pray for Juliet. This is a major difference because if someone had seen the Friar giggle, it may have. changed the entire play. They may have questioned him why he giggled but since he would not have a reason he may just spill what he knows. Since the movie was once again unrealistic, the play is the better production in this scene as well. & nbsp; Some other major differences between the play and the movie occurred in the plot. details. One example of this is in the beginning of the story.

At the same time the differences are that in the movie Romeo never went to the apothecary witch in the play he did. Also In the movie when Romeo and Balthasar went to the Capulet tomb Romeo never gave his servant the reason why he did go into the tomb and he opened the tomb with a boulder but in the play he told Balthasar that he was going to give juliet a final kiss and retrieve a ring from her. Romeo also opened the tomb the a iron crowbar. And the biggest Difference was that Lady Montague died from grief but in the movie she lived and Romeo never fought Parris in the movie at the Capulet
Firstly, Gnomeo and Juliet come from two opposing families: the Montague’s and the Capulet’s. However, due to an unidentified reason, both families despise one another. The director presents this feud by introducing the story with a lawn mower race. The race is between two people, Tybalt, who is a Capulet and Gnomeo, who is a Montague. During the race, Tybalt cheated and destroyed Gnomeo’s lawn mower. Later on, Gnomeo snuck into the Capulet’s property and spray painted their wall to seek revenge. The next day, Gnomeo headed back to his home and discovers that the Capulet’s destroyed his father’s wisteria plant. This shows that the Capulet’s and the Montague’s are furious and seek revenge for one another. The story of Romeo and Juliet also involved two opposing families who despised one another. Shakespeare never explains why both families were enemies. However, he does mention a few hints in the story, which allows the reader to understand that the families didn’t have the same view points. He introduces the story with a street fight between the Montague’s and the Capulet’s. This presents a very broad idea of the tension between both families. Later on, Romeo finds out that Rosaline was going to attend the Capulet’s party, so he snuck into the party and attempted to find her. However, Tybalt recognized Romeo...

First, we learned that in Gnomeo and Juliet, most of the characters are gnomes, there is no Mercutio, the Nurse is a frog, and Lady Capulet and Montague have died before the story starts. Also in both stories Tybalt is an antagonist and Friar Lawrence gives Romeo/Gnomeo and Juliet advice on their love and how they can be together. Secondly, we learned that Romeo and Juliet takes place in Verona, Italy in the 1600s and Gnomeo and Juliet takes place in modern day Britain. In both stories Romeo/Gnomeo talks to Juliet on the balcony. Lastly, we learned that Romeo and Juliet starts the story with a fight and Gnomeo and Juliet starts with a lawn mower race. Additionally, in both stories it ends with the feud being over, but in Romeo and Juliet they kill themselves and in Gnomeo and Juliet they are almost killed by the Terafirminator. So would you’ve wanted to be a part of either of these
“I told you so,” said the Shakespeare statue in Gnomeo and Juliet after a lawnmower crushed the main characters. He was referring to how the two lovers were going to die, but it turns out that they didn’t! That’s just one example of how different the setting, characters, and plot events are, in Disney and Rocket Pictures’ Gnomeo and Juliet compared to Shakespeare’s classic, Romeo and Juliet.
The 1996 film, tries to show too much emotion, in doing so, it makes the scene weaker, by lessening some important aspects. In this version, Romeo visits Juliet in her tomb, unknowing of her and Friar Lawrence's plan. Juliet is shocked when she awakens to a dying Romeo. On screen, all she can do is stare into his eyes, as he slowly slips from the earth. While this seems to make it more emotional, it adds drama which doesn't have to be present. Mainly because in the opposing 1968 version, Juliet is completely shocked by Romeo´s death in a different way. A worse, colder way. The viewer can see the look in her eyes, as she stares

The movie adds a musical twist to the original Romeo and Juliet, which gives the story a lighter look than the original. Instead of bloody fights, the movie puts in dance and singing scenes. The characters are also different because some of them are in relationships, while others even completely change their roles. For example, Bernardo is Maria’s brother in the story, while in the original play Tybalt plays her cousin. The nurse is also not in a relationship with anyone, while Anita is in a relationship with Bernardo and that fact drastically changes the storyline.
