DO NOWMany movies today are remakes of classic

Romeo + Juliet
We are now going to view a more modern version of the play. This version has a lot of similarities
but also a lot of differences to Shakes’ original production.
As we watch, update your T-Chart with a list of things that are similar and things that are different. You will need this list to complete your writing assignment once we finish the film.
