Film Clip Act 1 Scenes 4-5

To ease us into the reading of Shakespeare, I encourage you to watch the following two clips along with reading the corresponding scene(s) in Romeo and Juliet. Watching the film clips is option, but after all, Shakespeare's plays were meant to be seen!

Nonetheless, we are also studying this play as literature, so make sure you read it, too. Assessments will expect you to know the text, and Discussion Boards will expect you to utilize the text.

The first clip is from Act 1, beginning in the middle of Scene 4 and continuing through part of Scene 5. The second clip takes you to all but the last few lines of Scene 5. (To see the very end of Scene 5, view the next clip, for Act 2, Scenes 1 & 2.)
