this is just to say

1. In the play (text), do you think Romeo and Juliet really fall in love at first sight? Explain your answer and use evidence from the text to back it up.
1. yes I think they do.  I think this because the way Romeo talked to her you could tell that he was in love.  "If I profane with my unworthiest hand This holy shrine, the gentle fine is this: My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready standTo smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss." This is Romeo asking if he can kiss her. 
2. In the film version of Romeo and Juliet we saw in class, what strategies does the director use to make the “love at first sight” plot believable? Was it successful? Explain your answer.
1. He made the Love at first sight believable because of the way he had the two actors look at each other.  the way they looked at each other made it seem as though they were in love.  they were both looking at each other blushing and smiling.
3. If you were acting the role of Juliet in the play, how would you show her youth and innocence but also make her love believable? Be specific and include information about elements such as costuming, makeup, lighting, sound, acting, voice, line delivery, body language, and relationships to other characters on the stage.

1. to show her youth and innocence I would have the actor be a young woman, with a higher pitched voice, have her show a sort of awkward body language have the characters on stage treat her as if she was young.   to show her innocence I would have her costume be an angel, the lighting around her be bright, have her makeup reflect the light a little, have her lines be nice and her voice kinda soft but high pitched.
