@@alicianelson1252 I’m talking more about characterization, not plot.

Rosaline in the original play is more like Merida than Rosaline in this show - here she's trying to get her boyfriend back, originally Rosaline had no interest in love or having any kind of relationship at all, like Merida.
that's a real stretch. without her make up and fancy dress, i'd say she look no better than a girl selling oranges in her shopping cart. it's either you're ugly or you need glasses
this movie is so funny i laughed the whole time, the nurse is brilliant, rosaline absolutely kills it and her chemistry with Dario is off the charts, i love it!!
Kaitlyn Dever plays the (slightly) sardonic (yet good hearted) girl who is more femme fatale than she lets on as well as any young actress today. She was great in Last Man Standing.
So this is Romeo and Juliet told through Juliet's BFF Rosaline who just watched the whole debacle go down as if she's commentating on TikToker drama from 2022?
@@bayleeholthuysen5368 In the original yes, but it kind of looks like they're going to make them friends here-- and I'm into it. Juliet needs someone to talk straight to her, and this Rosaline reinvented looks like just the person to do so.
OK, so this isn't so much a 'missing chapter' story, it's a complete retelling since in the play Rosaline was never the ex because rejected Romeo and the concept of dating at all before the story even started. Still, a fun movie. However, if anyone here wants a Shakespeare story like this, they won't have to look too far. Girl desperately wanting her ex back: Helena from 'A Midsummer Night's Dream'. Girl determined to get the man she wants even if it involves morally questionable actions: Helena in 'All's Well That Ends Well'. Girl called Rosaline with a sharp sense of humour: Rosaline in 'Love's Labour's Lost' - also Rosalind (no typo with a 'd' instead of an 'e') from 'As You Like It'. Enemies-to-lovers exchanging wicked burns and insults till they fall in love: Beatrice and Benedickt in 'Much Ado About Nothing' - sadly there's no iconic "blow me", but there is the equally iconic "I wonder you will still be talking, Senior Benedickt, nobody marks you." "What my dear Lady Disdain, are you yet living?"
The croquet is wildly anachronistic here---it really did not take off until the 1860s, and certainly wasn't played in Italy in the Renaissance. Doesn't really matter, of course, since the movie pursues an intentional contrast between modernity and Shakespeare's era, but I can't help but think that contrast would have been stronger and funnier if the 16th Century elements were more based in realism.
they never dated, he just liked her cause she was pretty (we dont even know if they MET) but found out she'd taken a vow of chastity so that was that. he moped around at the start of the play all because he couldnt get laid
she did - and Friar Laurence pointed out that she knew his 'love' was never genuine. This isn't so much a 'forgotten chapter' story as a complete rewriting of it (at least I'm hoping it is and isn't just a case of a movie being written by people who never read the play like I got the feeling they were doing with Never been Kissed and Get Over It).
In the original play she *past tense* liked Romeo, she's his ex, as in at one point they liked each other. In this they're drawing her up a bit differently. She didn't know Juliet in the play, but here they're friends, and I'm hoping that changes the course of things significantly.
@@purpleghost106 I don't believe she ever liked him. Romeo was her suitor, not her boyfriend (insofar as that concept didn't even really exist back then. Once you accepted a suitor, you got married or at least officially betrothed immediately). And his suit was in vain. He wrote her poems and tried to get her attention, but I can't recall any lines in the play indicating that she ever had showed him actual favour. If I am misremembering that, it's still not 'exes': Rosaline may have flirted briefly with Romeo, as any girl back then might do with all her suitors, to see if he was worth her time, decided he wasn't, and gave him no further encouragement; that much is clear from Romeo's conversations with his friends. He took a while to get over being rejected, and then met Juliet. When the Friar reproaches him for the 'lightness' of his affections in switching from Rosaline to Juliet so quickly, Romeo shoots him down with a reminder that the Friar himself had told Romeo not to continue pursuing a girl who didn't want him back. He couldn't have said that if Rosaline had initially liked Romeo. People back then did not have much respect for people changing their minds in relationships: the Friar would have been scolding HER for being inconstant, not Romeo for being officious.

An 18 year old man child seduces a girl 5 years younger than him, and because all the older people are similarly immature and haven't taught the younger generation how to handle their stuff they end up with two gang murders and a double suicide. A great tragedy, not a great love story.
Mannerisms, the style of make up, the hair styles, plastic surgery in some cases, the high definition camera, and modern cinematography. That is at least my main assumptions. A lot of period pieces focus use modern means of making people look good instead of going for more traditional styles.
Very few people understand both history and art (not to mention human nature) well enough to make the characters act like real people while still respecting the actual conventions of the times. It annoys me equally when they have Shakespearean productions where everyone is talking in rhythm and posing instead of pausing, speeding up, putting in emphasis, gesturing naturally etc like people do in normal conversation - the metre was there to make it easier to memorize, not to be performed that way - and when they do modernizations like this. Not only has there never been a time when people talk and think like moderns but have old-time conventions, but it is also logically inconsistent. The conventions and social situations and even the FASHIONS of a particular time period arise naturally from the ideology of the time: give a time period modern ideology and they would not have kept any of their traditions. They simply do not work together. Shakespeare's stories may have come from old sources, but were set in his own day. He wasn't trying to do historical fiction. His histories were actual historical events. They may not have bothered with costumes, but Shakespeare certainly changed the language and references (particularly with regard to religion) used by his characters depending on the time he was writing about in the histories. There's no reason people can't act realistically with round-character sense of fun and depth and range of human emotions while still diligently upholding the conventions of the time period. That is, in fact, how real people lived back then. Having those social mannerisms we perceive today as 'grand' and stilted did not in fact stop the real people back then from having fun or thinking or feeling deeply and having relatably human experiences that transcend the times. Either overdramatizing or modernizing history disrespects it. Actors should learn the actual history of the period before they audition to act in a historical drama (and producers before having it written), is my frank opinion. And I act myself, so I am not speaking of matters I do not understand.
Yeah that's what they're going for these days. A humorous modern movie but in period piece gowns. I noticed at the start of bridgerton's rise, people started making of funny haha live renditions of classic literature

"I'm such a fool." "Yeah, kind of are." Oh, I like her! Romeo clearly picked the wrong girl.
This one wouldn’t off herself over him.
Well, he DID pick her first. She wouldn't have him.
not really. Remember originally she rejected him.
course he did. juliet is ugly
Honestly thank god for that because we wouldn't have Dario, who is clearly better for her in every conceivable way

I like how Roseline told the two guys with the umbrellas to leave, even though it's sunny outside lol
they are parasols, not umbrellas. to protect against the sun, not the rain
She's getting the servants out of the way so that what they tell stay secrets.
She is a Disney Princess.
She is now. This movie is made by 20th Century Studios and released in Hulu, both Disney property so in a way, she's a Disney princess now lol

I can't wait to see the movie Rosaline.
I think Shakespeare would have enjoyed this spin on his timeless masterpiece. It was a delight to watch! 😂
