DESCRIBE A PHOTO

Personally, I think that this photo is absolutly amazing, full of vivid colors and a strong light that dazzles everything. It's a kind of mountain, where there's a hollow at the middle, with a big waterfall that runs from the top to the bottom,  that finally leads to a sall river. There's a lot of grass and a beautiful nature fills the landscape.
The sky is so amazing too, with some touches of pink and light blue. I think it's a twilight.

TASK: Differences between the film and the book of Romeo and Juliet

Question 1: In the film the story takes place in Verona Beach, an exotic city of United States. Instead of taking place on the 16th century like in the book, it takes place in the end of the 20th century. The fight between the Capulets and the Montagues in the film happens in and old circus, but in the book it happens on the Verona's street. In the film everybody dresses up modernly but in the book they didn't.

Question 2: In the film, the swimming pool is like the balcony in the book, because they kissed there.
In the book, the Capulets and the Montagues fights at the begginig, but in the movie there's fire in the petrol station and they don't have so much time for that.
The water means love because it appears in every scene between Romeo and Juliet.

Question 3: We can say that the narrator is the presenter of the news, cause it appears at the beggining and at the end. All the caracters speak in verse and they speak in "Old English".

Question 4: In the party, everybody can dresses up like they want, and in the other part of the movie everybody is dressed on a very modern way.

Question 5: Swords for guns // Cars for horses // The beach for the city // In the film they use helicopters // The police is the army in the film

Question 6: In the movie, the characters somkes, the city is very lightly and instead of a king there is a police officer.
