Shakespeare and movie

The movie that I think is based on a Shakespeare play is She's The Man. Now that I think of it, I really appreciate movies and books these days that make more sense but can have the same meaning and plot behind it as an important Shakespeare play. She's the man, is about a girl names Viola who pretends to be her brother so she can play on the boy's soccer team at his school. While playing soccer at the school, Viola falls in love with her roommate Duke who is actually in love with Olivia because he thinks Viola is a boy. Once, Duke finds out Viola is actually a girl and not her brother, Duke falls in love with her too. Happily ever after...

This movie is based on the Twelfth Night by Shakespeare. I think many people admire Shakespeare and try to be as good of a writer as him but fail in the process and fall back on his ideas. Basically, I think people use Shakespeare as their own ideas and try to be sneaky about it. Many of us smart people have figured out their plans to take credit for a brilliant movie when the magnificent idea was really of the intelligent Shakespeare.

Yes, I agree with you. She's a Man is a Great example especially when Mrs. Gilman put it as a example...... Many directors probably use Shakespeare ideas in a sneaky way like you said because he is very intelligent from all his plays. All the great Ideas that he has had leads to good movies. That is why directors use his ideas.

I thought that your paragraphs were really great. You kind of took mrs. Gilman's idea, but you made up for it because the paragraphs were so great. It seemed like you put a lot of time into making your paragraphs.
