William Shakespeare was a talent writer in Elizabethan age. He has provided some of the most brilliant plays ever be performed on the stage. He is also the author of numerous sonnets and poems, but he is best known for his plays such as Hamlet, Macbeth, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Othello, and Romeo and Juliet. In this essay, I would like to discuss the play and movie, "Romeo and Juliet", and also the movie, Shakespeare in Love because they are from two warring families and their love would most likely be forbidden.
