English 113-102-Drama Blog 2, "A Midsummernights Dream"

            Shakespeare's play, A Midsummernights Dream is better in the text than the Hollywood version.  I imagine the characters and actions clearer than what the movie portraits the characters.  There was a rumor that some of Shakespeare's play was based on his feelings for his stable boy.  It bugs me that there is a possibility it could be pretty sick to think about a stable boy but overall his plays' are super awsome and has been studied through out the world.
            
            I pictured all the characters in Togas and half naked.  In the film they are very covered only till they where sleeping next to each other which was pretty AWSOME!  Although the girls in the film didn't fully show much it was still hot.  I was not a fan of seeing half naked men in the film but in the text I imagined them to be godly with their beauty and looks.

           I think the translated script was better than film and would prefer to read the play than the movie.  The ability to use my imagination is better than having Hollywood create the image of the characters for the audience.  In reality, the job is sometime difficult for a director to recreate the character of a play or a novel.
