The Merchant of Venice (1923 film): The Merchant of Venice (German: Der Kaufmann von Venedig) is a 1923 German silent drama film directed by Peter Paul Felner and starring Werner Krauss, Henny Porten and Harry Liedtke.  The film is an adaptation of William Shakespeare's play "The Merchant of Venice".  It was released in the United States in 1926 as The Jew of Mestri.  The film was made on location in Venice, with scenes and characters added which were not in the original play.  This is the surviving copy, being two reels shorter than the German version.  The characters in the German retained Shakespeare’s nomenclature, but in the American they were given new names sourced from the Italian work "Il Pecorone", a 14th-century short story collection attributed to Giovanni Fiorentino, from which Shakespeare is believed to have drawn his idea.  The film purports to be a return to the original, as an excuse for its differences from the play.

Let's kill all the lawyers: "Let's kill all the lawyers" is a line from William Shakespeare's "Henry VI, Part 2", Act IV, Scene 2.  The full quote is "The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers".  This quote is among one of Shakespeare's most famous quotes, as well as one of his most controversial quotes.  The quote has been the title of movies as well as the title for published books.  Shakespeare may be making a joke when character "Dick The Butcher" suggests one of the ways the band of pretenders to the throne can improve the country is to kill all the lawyers.  Dick is a rough character, a killer as evil as his name implies, like the other henchmen, and this is his rough solution to his perceived societal problem.  There is some disagreement with the interpretation that one of Shakespeare's sympathetic characters would make a joke suggesting that killing lawyers would make the world better.  The Florida Bar Association contends the quote was a lawyer joke.

Portia (The Merchant of Venice): Portia is the heroine of William Shakespeare's "The Merchant of Venice".  A rich, beautiful, and intelligent heiress, she is bound by the lottery set forth in her father's will, which gives potential suitors the chance to choose between three caskets composed of gold, silver and lead.  If they choose the right casket – the casket containing Portia's portrait and a scroll– they win Portia's hand in marriage.  If they choose the wrong casket, they must leave and never seek another woman in marriage.  Portia is glad when two suitors, one driven by greed and another by vanity, fail to choose correctly.  She favours Bassanio, a young Venetian noble, but is not allowed to give him any clues to assist in his choice.  Later in the play, she disguises herself as a man, then assumes the role of a lawyer's apprentice (named Balthazar) whereby she saves the life of Bassanio's friend, Antonio, in court.

Jessica (The Merchant of Venice): Jessica is the daughter of Shylock, a Jewish moneylender, in William Shakespeare's "The Merchant of Venice" (  1598 ).  In the play, she elopes with Lorenzo, a pennyless Christian, and a chest of her father's money, eventually ending up in Portia and Bassanio's household.  In the play's dramatic structure, Jessica is a minor but pivotal role.  Her actions motivate Shylock's vengeful insistence on his "pound of flesh" from Antonio; her relationships with Lorenzo and Shylock serves as a mirror and contrast to Portia's with Bassanio and with her father; her conversion to Christianity is the end of Shylock's line's adherence to the Jewish faith.
