Title: Much Ado About Nothing
Author: William Shakespeare
Birth: 4-1564
Death: 4- 1616
Lived: England
Published: 1598
Setting: Sicly, 1600s
Theme: Love, Lies

Plot Synopsis: Hero and Claudio fall in love but Claudio is tricked into believing that Hero slept with another man before they got married.  The events unfold from there.


Characters:
Hero: (protagonist)Young women who loves Claudio

Claudio: (protagonist) Young soldier who loves Hero

Benedick: (protagonist) A stuck up man who thinks he'll never fall in love but then falls in love with Beatrice.

Beatrice: (protagonist) falls for Benedick

Don Pedro: (protagonist) nice man, sets up couples

Don Jon:  (antagonist) This is the bad guy. Makes Claudio think that Hero cheted on him.  I'm still not completely sure why.


MY OPINION:

Well before I watched this movie I hated Shakespeare and now that I've watched this movie I've got to say that I still do.  Even though this movie was better than I thought it would be, Shakespeare's language always confuses me.  I gave up watching this a couple times but then my mom made me finish.  I was happy that at least Claudio and Hero didn't end up killing themselves or something. approve
