Mercutio- "And but one word with one of us? Couple it with something: make it a word and a blow!"

In the original script, Mercutio says this after Tybalt approaches him and Benvolio, asking for a word with one of them. Mercutio says this to provoke Tybalt into a fight. In Zeffirelli's 1968 version, Mercutio says this to jest at him, he says it in more of a joking way, which sets off Tybalt. In Luhrmann's 1996 version, Mercutio says this more-so to get in Tybalt's head so he will be aggravated into fighting Mercutio. In Zeffirelli's version Mercutio is trying to make light out of Tybalt and the situation, while in Luhrmann's version, Mercutio is using his wits to anger Tybalt.

In the original script, Romeo exclaims this after he realizes that killing Tybalt has ruined him, and that fate has done this to him. In Zeffirelli's 1968 version, he screams that he is Fortunes fool while looking at Tybalt's dead body while he is surrounded by the Montagues. His emotions and expression shows how much guilt he is feeling. In Luhrmann's 1996 version, He looks up to the sky as he says it, as if he has been cursed by the gods with the rage he used to kill Tybalt. Both films are similar in the emotion they give off, but Luhrmann made it a darker scene with the pitch blacknesses and the storm in the background, as if Romeo had been cursed.

In the original script, Mercutio is slain by Tybalt when Romeo gets in between them during their fight. In Zeffirelli's version Romeo does the same, and as he tries to separate them Tybalt stabs Mercutio. Zeffirelli chose to make the death seem more like an accident while in the script it never states how Tybalt really meant to stab Mercutio. In Luhrmann's version, Romeo does the same in trying to separate them, but Mercutio is shot by Tybalt instead of stabbed. Unlike the script, Luhrmann chose to make it look like Tybalt had become full of guilt after Mercutio's death.

In the original script, Romeo becomes so angry at Mercutio's death that he impulsively kills Tybalt, but when he comes to his senses it is too late. In Zeffirelli's 1968 version, Romeo begins to fight but mid-way through starts to realize what mistake he has made. As Tybalt charges at him, he has no choice but to stab him so he doesn't get killed, unlike in the script where it doesn't give too much detail on the fight itself. In Luhrmann's 1996 version, after Mercutio's death, Romeo chases down Tybalt in a car. Romeo ends up in a position where Tybalt has a gun to his head. After knocking the gun out of his hand, he violently shoots Tybalt. I think Luhrmann really wanted to allow for Romeo's violent episode to illustrate how emotionally unstable he is. In Zeffirelli's version, the focus is on more of Romeo's sensitivity and weakness as he kills Tybalt, while Luhrmann's show's how quickly he can change into a malicious rage.

In the original script, the Prince chooses to banish Romeo after he has killed Tybalt. The Prince chose not to punish him by death because Mercutio was his relative and Romeo fought for him. Lady Capulet begs for Romeo's death, but the Prince does not budge. In Zeffirelli's 1968 version, a much more intense scene is presented. The two Montague and Capulet argue and shout over each other who should be punished. The prince comes to the same conclusion as the script, Romeo is to be exiled from Verona. In Luhrmann's 1996 version, The scene is much more calm, as the background shouting is tuned out when the Prince comes to talk, giving a focus to the significance of the crimes of both families and Romeo's banishment. Both films are similar in the way the two families are looking for who to put the blame on, but different in the way the two directors chose for the emotion the scenes conveyed.

In the original script, The scene goes down in the streets of Verona, Italy during the renaissance. Similar to the original script, Zeffirelli's 1968 version is set in a courtyard and the streets of Verona. Different from both the script and Zeffirelli's version, Luhrmann's is set in a modern Verona, which is Verona beach. Both of the films and the script are all alike in how the fight takes place in a wide spread open space. All bystanders eyes gaze on the fighting.

In the original script, Mercutio says this as he is dying from his wound. He expresses how the two capulet houses feud has caused his death, and now he wishes for their death. In Zeffirelli's 1968 version, Mercutio states the exact lines as said in the script, but to dramatise the scene further, the director chose to have him drag out his words and emphasise what they had done to him. In Luhrmann's 1996 version, Mercutio exclaims the curse right before he dies, but never states the two houses had contributed to his unruly death. The two films have some similarities in the way they created a much more dramatic scene then the script with how the characters dragged out their speech. However, they are different in the way that in the 1968 version, Mercutio death ends in exclaiming outwards to everyone how he curses the two houses, while in Luhrmann's he directs his speech toward Romeo.

In the original script, Tybalt comes to Mercutio, knowing that he hangs around Romeo. Tybalt comes to find out where Romeo is so he can kill him. Mercutio doesn't sell out his friend's whereabouts, instead he encourages a fight between him and Tybalt. When Romeo does appear, Mercutio will not allow him to fight Tybalt and instead fights in his place, which proves his loyalty.
In Zeffirelli's 1968 version, Mercutio cracks insults and jests at Tybalt to encourage a battle between them. Zeffirelli chose to make the scene more of a comedy, which makes it seem like Mercutio is fighting just to fight, and not fighting for Romeo. In Luhrmann's 1996 version, he brought a very apparent focus to Mercutio's loyalty. Tybalt starts to fight Romeo before his and Mercutio's fight, unlike in the original script, Mercutio directly gets between Romeo and Tybalt to save Romeo. The two films have similarities in the way that Mercutio encouraged the fight between him and Tybalt, but different in the way the creator's chose the emotion and the connection between Mercutio and Romeo.

In the original script, Romeo shows his impulsiveness when he violently kills Tybalt. After Mercutio has been slain, he lets his emotions control him and not giving a thought to it, charges at Tybalt with the understanding that either him or Tybalt must die. After he Kills Tybalt, his heart is filled with regret. In Zeffirelli's 1968 version the fight ends in Tybalt charging at Romeo with his sword while he is on the ground and Romeo stabs him before he can reach him. In the 1968 version, Romeo starts a fight on impulse, and at the end regrets it. In Luhrmann's 1996 version, Romeo's impulse results in a car chase between him and Tybalt. When Tybalt has a gun to Romeo's head, he gets pushed to the ground and drops the gun. Romeo picks it up without thinking and starts firing gun shots and kills Tybalt. This is similar to the script in the way it shows Romeo's rage consuming him, but much different in the way Romeo kills him which that of using a gun and killing Tybalt after he had become defenseless. The two films are similar in how they show Romeo becoming the main aggressor and regretting it after killing Tybalt. They are also different in how the battle in Zeffirelli's version has a big audience while Luhrmann's version does not, which makes the scene much more intense.

In the original script, an angry Tybalt enters the scene looking for Romeo, however his aggression gets the best of him as Mercutio eggs him with insults until they fight. After killing Mercutio, Tybalt comes back to Romeo with malicious intent to kill him. In Zeffirelli's 1968 version, the scene goes down as it does in the original script, however, Tybalt's Temper is played down with how his and Mercutio's fight is turned into one big jest, which show's a side of Tybalt un-presented in the script. In Luhrmann's 1996 version, Tybalt's is as aggressive as ever. When Romeo gets between him and Mercutio, Tybalt shoots Mercutio the same way he stabs him in the script. Later on, during Tybalt and Romeo's Fight, he hesitates to shoot Romeo when he has the chance, which gives his character a more redeeming side, unlike in the script where he is just plain evil. The two films are similar in how they show how Tybalt is a villain, who kills Mercutio. But they differ in how Luhrmann's version shows a side of Tybalt as regretful for his actions when he dies, while Zeffirelli's version pictures him as dying as a villain with only hate in him.
