Shakespearen Stories

Shes the man relates to the love triangle thing. A girl named Viola loves soccer and her loser boyfriend doubts that she can play boys soccer so she dresses up as her brother sebastian and goes to the college that sebastian is supposed to go to and meets a guy named duke that is in love with a girl named olivia who is really in love with sebastian but she doesnt know that it is really viola as sebastian. Everything gets mixed up but in the end everyone hooks up with the person that they are supposed to get with.

This story is most likely influenced By Shakespeares Twelfth night. This has the same peoples names in it and has the same plot. The same things happen in the twelfth night that happen in shes the man. They even have the character named viola in twelfth night play as her twin brother sebastian just like in shes the man.

Anticipating Shakespeare

My reaction to watching the movie was that it was a pretty good movie. I understood what i saw pretty well but some of the things that i heard i couldnt really follow or understand. By the end of the movie i started to understand what they were talking about and what the whole movie was about. My perception of shakespeare is that he is a very complex dude. He uses words that if we used them now a days people would look at us weird.

My prior knowledge about romeo and juliet is that it is a really romantic story. Pretty much all i have heard is that two unlike people fall insanley in love with each other and that they die at the end becuase they feel that they should die if they cant be together. I think that i will like it a lot because i love love stories and i like what i have heard about this story so i will hopefully enjoy the next two months just as much as you will.
