I liked that there was lot's of emotion which I really enjoyed. The acting was good and I feel like it furthered Romeo as a charcter when he showed all of the Emotion]]> 2022-03-17 17:59:11 UTC https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100571317 https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100572710 i liked that the film was kind of over exaggerated and dramatic. It made the film interesting and you actually would want to pay attention because it sort of draws you in just because of how dramatic it was. For example, in the fight scenes the actors had crazy facial expressions and loud noise effects. ]]> 2022-03-17 18:00:08 UTC https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100572710 https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100573693 I liked the fight seen with Romeo and Tybalt because I felt that it really displayed Romeo's anger very well.
The carnival fight scene stood out to me because it showed a lot of emotion from different people.]]> 2022-03-17 18:00:46 UTC https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100573693 https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100574718 I noticed some of the costumes were very modern while some of the costumes were more old costumes. A scene that stuck out to me was when we first got to see Tybalt his costume was unexpected and I have never seen an outfit like his. One thing I disliked about the film was the nurse. I just didn't really like her costume it felt very odd.]]> 2022-03-17 18:01:24 UTC https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100574718 https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100575054 I noticed all the bright colors and extravagant costumes that this version of R&J provided.
The scene that stuck out to me was Juliet's tomb secene, it was appleing to the eyes with all the lights.
I liked Romeos acting, I disliked Juliet's acting]]> 2022-03-17 18:01:38 UTC https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100575054 https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100576818 I noticed small details in body language and tone that fueled the emotion in this movie.

The scene where Romeo shot Tybalt stuck out to me as the scene took a drastic change from the rest of the movie and transitioned into the "tragedy" that is the play. Leonardo DiCaprio played his scene with great emotion that surprised me as I did not have high expectations of this film from the start.]]> 2022-03-17 18:02:46 UTC https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100576818 https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100576952 I noticed that the film directors often effectively chose music that paired well with the scenes. In parts like the fight scene, the background music greatly increased the intensity and presentation. One scene that most stuck out to me was the tomb scene, because it was altered so much compared to the written version of the play. Many lines were cut from it, but I think this is made up for by the way that the director portrays Romeo's death. I really liked the way that as Romeo was drinking the potion, Juliet woke up, and it was too late so Romeo had this very painful moment of realization. Something I didn't like too much about this movie was how overly dramatic some of it was. In the Tybalt-Romeo fight scene, the weather, multiple shots, and emotions were just a little bit overwhelming in my opinion.]]> 2022-03-17 18:02:51 UTC https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100576952 https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100576974 In the 1996 version of Romeo and Juliet, I noticed that it is quite different than the 68 version. It takes place in modern times and takes a unique spin on the play and turns it into something that would be appealing for the newer generation. One scene that stuck out to me was the Tybalt and Romeo fight scene. It's over the top and very dramatic, and uses the weather, lighting and overhaul acting to convey emotion and have an impact on the story. One scene that I didn't like was the first scene with the Capulet and Montague boys. The Montague's just seem a bit over the top for the situation. I do like it a bit, though, as it characterizes the overhaul tone between the two factions. I really liked the use of music, audio and visuals to set a mood, and was quite well executed.]]> 2022-03-17 18:02:52 UTC https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100576974 5559482_1 https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100577618 What you noticed

Most fight scenes in the Luhrmann Film are shorter and more intense, due to the uses of the cinematic techniques--fast camera angle changes, sound effects, and music.

What scenes stuck out to you and why

During the party scene, Luhrmann decided to have Romeo and Juliet first see each other through a fish tank in separate bathrooms. It stuck out to me because that would be the last place I would have thought that part would take place.

What you liked or disliked about the film

The film did a good job of depicting the play. For example, during the Tomb Scene, even though it was not as accurate because some characters were not included, as soon as Romeo drinks the poison, Juliet wakes up. Luhrmann creates a comedic but sad mood.]]> 2022-03-17 18:03:15 UTC https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100577618 https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100579893 I noticed that this version tried to make the scenes more emotional by using film techniques. 
The fight scene with Mercutio stuck out to me the most, due to the fact it utilized lots of film techniques.
I liked that the film kept it a bit more lighthearted while getting serious when it had to, but I dislike how it entirely changed how some characters were characterized]]> 2022-03-17 18:04:42 UTC https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100579893 https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100580887 I noticed that the the overall play makes sense even though the time periods are different from Shakespeare's version because of the mood that the setting and the actors creates]]> 2022-03-17 18:05:12 UTC https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100580887 https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100581397 I didn't exactly like Mercutio’s acting, as it was a little too much sometimes. He is supposed to be playful and fun but the actor overshot it quite a few times. The film also showed the message failure by having the messenger boy show up in the funeral service and then run away being scared of punishment from failure to deliver. This was not a very accurate depiction as the Friar did not speak a word to the boy or yell at him for the failure.

Although this left more room for intimacy between R and J this took some of the excitement away from the final climax. It also made Romeo's death seem like a dumb accident more than it was that fact that he didn't know the full situation.
Leanardo's performance was very good. You could feel the emotion in his words. On the other hand Juliet did not have as great of a performance.
Overall the first half of this adaptation was more exciting. This was dialed back during the second half as to focus on the romance. Unfortunately some of the interest was lost with it.]]> 2022-03-17 18:08:32 UTC https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100585986 https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100589213 I liked how the prologue was done and the music and sound effects they used. A scene that stuck out to me was Romeo's fight with Tybalt and the balcony scene. I noticed that they changed the ending so that Paris wasn't there and the Juliet woke up before Romeo died so Romeo knew that she hadn't really been dead. ]]> 2022-03-17 18:10:27 UTC https://padlet.com/campbellunionhsd/RJ1996pd5/wish/2100589213
